The fact that you chose to comment on a "negative comment" simply by stating that it is "boring" and "pessimistic" is pretty funny.

I understand and appreciate the irony for sure :) I have a small tick that I cannot downvote someone on HN without explaining why, even though the author won't actually know I was the one downvoting. But downvoting without explaining why, feels wasteful. At least now I get to explain why I feel that comment doesn't live up to the HN standard.
