Captious

A guy or girl who loves to correct petty things. See also: Grammar Nazi
Also a cool insult to use for those who justifiably do not know what this means.

Some guy: Hey man!
Some man: Why's your shoe untied?
Some guy: *looks down* Ha, you got me.
Some man: No, seriously. It's not tied 'cause it's tied the wrong direction!
Some guy: *hard facepalm* Captious idiot...

LATER, CONTINUING TO BE CAPTIOUS:
Some man: Also that other guy who made a definition for this is wrong

Cautiously Pessimistic

An increasingly relevant wordplay on the cliché "cautiously optimistic". As the world continues in free fall, its much more realistic to expect negative outcomes. Therefore, its much more pragmatic to maintain a cautiously pessimistic demeanor, rather than a cautiously optimistic one.

My cat is always cautiously pessimistic when inspecting anything new that I bring into the house.
