An inordinately American person, a "Capital A American". Usually used in a derogatory manner.
If you meet one outside the US, you might think they're doing a grotesque, almost offensive caricature of Americans, but no, turns out some yanks really are like that.

- I met Keithrynnn yesterday, she wouldn't shut up about her therapist
- Come on man, that's not cool, there's nothing wrong with going to therapy
- I know, but she kept saying these things that most children already know, as if they require some kind of deep thought and understanding...
- Oh, is she American?
- Yeah, a real Capital A

Get the Capitalismmug. Literal: Characterised by or reflective of a positive outlook on the future, believing that the best possible outcome will happen.
Contextual: When you've got more faith in your startup's future than a kid in a candy store. It's the entrepreneurial spirit that sees the glass as not just half full, but overflowing, no matter how many investors say otherwise.
Balanced Perspective: While their optimism fuels their drive, they also navigate with a compass of cautious pessimism, strategic cynicism, and a dash of paranoia. This balance ensures they're not just dreamers but pragmatic visionaries who prepare for every twist and turn. They celebrate their optimism, but their strategy meetings echo with 'what ifs,' reflecting a readiness for unexpected challenges.

Optimistic Capital /ˌɒp.tɪˈmɪs.tɪk ˈkæp.ɪ.tl/
Literal Definition:
Capital that is invested with patient, hopeful and positive outlook on the future success of a venture, particularly in the early stages of a company's growth. It’s the kind of investment that come from belief in first principles of scaling on the potential of a small business in a very large market and the human beings behind it, beyond just the numbers on a spreadsheet.
Expanded Contextual Definition:
In the grand chess game of business and life, capital is not just the coins in our treasury but also the knights and bishops of our strategy. It encompasses human capital (the skills, knowledge, and expertise of the people that we have access to), social capital (the networks, relationships, and social interactions that facilitate opportunities and collaboration), and more.
While optimism fuels drive, it is also important to navigate with a compass of cautious pessimism, strategic cynicism, and a dash of paranoia. This balance ensures we're not just dreamers but pragmatic visionaries who prepare for every twist and turn. We celebrate optimism, but our meetings echo with 'what ifs,' reflecting a readiness for the unknown.
Usage:
"Did you hear about that super cool coffee company in Bangalore? They just got a round of Optimistic Capital. Now they're all set to turn their coffee grounds into money and magic."
