Polly Positive

Polly Positive is the exact opposite of Negative Nancy. Polly Positive can describe someone who sees everything around them as absolutely fantastic. Polly Positive also describes someone in the case that their response to a specific event or state of being during a period of time is incredibly hopeful in its take on a situation.
Person 1 (acting like a Negative Nancy): Man, I did not have fun at your friend's house: the music was too loud, it was too crowded, the people were annoying, everyone wrecked the place, the bathroom smelt awful, and now I am hungry.

Person 2(acting like a Polly Positive): It is unfortunate that you did not have a good time, but I had a great time and thought everything was marvelous even including the smell.

Positive Apples

A brightly optismistic interjection that encourages hope and happiness, while diminishing all that is evil, sour, depressing, inconvenient, and painful about life. This magical interjection usually provokes a smile. It is the verbal antidote to any form of negativity. It is the sugar in the lemonade.
Person 1: Oh no! I didn't get my work done today, just as I never do. On top of that, I have to replace my flat tire and find some way to lie my way out of jury duty. Oh, and my girlfriend just discovered that I've been calling my ex. And yeah, I've got food poisoning too, and I think my appendix just burst.

Person 2: I know, it's a tough day. Positive Apples!
