Ominous positivity is just another type of toxic positivity.

Oh, everything didn't work out? Maybe go fuck yourself, then.

You're going to be alright, dude. I'm personally seeing to it.

I think it's actually a godless, indifferent universe that wins.

If you're not joking, I'm sorry you have cancer. That really sucks. I know these words will go a long way toward paying the bills! I hope you're able to figure out the financial challenges and beat it.

I'm not lying, and thank you for the kind words. It's just really hard to find positivity in anything these days. It feels forced, and I'm tired.

Reminds me of Toxic Optimism! Someone so sure it's all going to work out that they do nothing to prepare.

There's no way in heck we're gonna hit that tree!
