postimist 

A person able to see the best and worst of everything.
Gerry, a postimist could always see both the positive and negative aspects of any situation. Sure, he'd just discovered his girlfriend in bed with his best friend, but at least he wouldn't have to listen to her Radiohead cds anymore.

Words you can keep

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.

posimistic 

A posimistic person is someone who has a very positive, affirmative, optimistic, favorable outlook on life.

It's actually a combination of the words postive and optimistic, hence " posimistic", "posimist " & " posimism ".

The opposite would of-course be "negamistic" , "negamist ", " negamism ", which is a combination of the words " negative " and " pessimistic " !
"Charlie is always posimistic, expecting the best in this best of all possible worlds, but sooner rather than later he must come to the realization that he cannot have his cake and eat it too !"

West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.

They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
