That's the antagonist inviting the hero over to try to kill the hero.

That's not optimism, is the problem.

I hold that there is a sensible hero, SOMEWHERE, who will finally turn the table.

I just haven't found him yet.

However, we're considering handling the issue eschwartz alluded to by offering the offender a position within the order. We have bridges that need policing.

Actually both are optimism. Just for different things. So we can say we have no pessimists because we are both optimistic that we are correct.

In accordance with my duties as Title Processor, I hereby grant you the full title of:

Loyal Opposition and Bearer of Inscrutable Logic

and thank the Secretary for the naming of the former.

I advise you not to take for granted the clemency you've been shown here today. The tides, they are fickle. And I hear that Lady President has an entire pack of hellhounds at her disposal.

I scoff at hellhounds. I have a large family of wolves at my command. They'll eat hellhounds for breakfast.

A contradiction in terms?

Whoever it is, he's just saying that to be controversial, and I will have to release the hounds of JSWolf on him. Assuming they stop misbehaving, that is. This sounds like it's just up the alley of the Bearer of Inscrutable Logic. If only he would play nice with us.
