Is hoping for the end of the world a pessimist's view?

I'd call that optimism about now.

 

[vi edit]

No. Pessimists don't "Hope" for anything bad, they just expect it to.

To an optimist, the glass is half full.
To a pessimist, the glass is half empty.
If you are a product consultant, the glass is 50% too large.
If you are an engineer, you have half in a redundant glass.
If you are a programmer, you have a basic input output system (BIOS) with a buffer overflow is just waiting to happen

Well, to a degree an anarchist. But anarchy is more just for the complete destruction of all order.

No, it's selfish. There are a lot of people who want to live.

Donny: Are these the Nazis, Walter?
Walter Sobchak: No, Donny, these men are nihilists. There's nothing to be afraid of.
