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.
