I have an optimistic bias? I thought that I was the gloomiest person on the site.

Nah, just the most serious... To be gloomier you'd have to give up your good will toward the rest of humanity.

Sorry, Doctiloquus, even stekim stated that I do not qualify as a "Bible thumper", so I can't really be that much like Flanders.

Ned Flanders: Bless the grocer for this wonderful meat, the middleman who jacked up the price, and let's not forget the humane but determined boys at the slaughterhouse.

I don't care what you say, this reminds me of you.

Actually, I don't watch "The Simpsons" (or much television at all), so I really wouldn't know whether I'm similar to Ned Flanders or not.
