People being optimistic when there's really nothing to be optimistic about. A sense that someone's positivity has no merit and is practically wasted because almost if not everything is purely negative at the time. This kind of thinking can be toxic because being happy all the time, even and especially during hardship, doesn't necessarily solve anything.
I'm getting tired of the amount of Empty Optimism that everyone around me is exerting. There's really nothing to be happy about right now.

Lance: Man, I wish MY life was an empty net goal, who the fuck wants to pay a mortgage every month.
Spencer: Ya, the worst is Keith acts like all of this is difficult for him. Like, Brosef, we know your life is an empty net goal and you don't have to worry about your car payments.
