according to the analyzer, "not interested" is 50% cheerful and 50% agreeable :)

This looks interesting.

Is the system using "1-grams"? i.e., is it not context aware? For instance, it's picking up "can’t blame" as anger, taking only into account "blame".

It's also picking up the "inferior" in "Our product is in no way inferior" as being negative - but given context, the word is clearly not being used in a negative way.

For these two examples I would agree with the tool. Neither of those two sentences are positive and uplifting.

I'd have to disagree. I'm not saying they're positive and uplifting, but I wouldn't consider them negative!

According to the analyzer, "Kill the unbelievers and wear their skins as crowns." is mostly open and agreeable.

It's broken. I've pasted in Bukowski and H.L. Mencken and they come up as open and agreeable.
