So in the comic Pearls Before Swine, Chuck is Pig, and Steve is Rat? Or maybe like the boss I had once who said he was a Tigger and I was an Eeyore?
Tiggers tend to get ahead in the world, because nobody likes an Eeyore. Even if the Eeyores tend to be right more often than not. (And when they’re wrong, usually it’s because things are even worse than they predicted.) I liked Griffin in Men In Black 3. He was a combination of optimist and pessimist. But I guess you have to be an alien to see all the possible future timelines.
