cynicalarious

So full of doubt about a serious situation that all one can do is laugh uncontrollably.

We shared a cynicalarious moment when we were discussing the apparent absence of any global warming concerns.

cynical

Not having any illusions about human nature.

I'm so cynical I don't trust furry little animals with big sad eyes.

cynic

The type of people posting their definitions of the word "relationship".

Only a cynic would post this definition of the word "relationship": A bond between two people; One person works to create/maintain love and fulfillment while the other person waits for something better to come along.

cynic

One who doesn't believe in innate human virtue. Cynicism, contrary to popular belief, does not entail being an offensive and ignorant idiot. Only the offensive part, because most people don't like how cynics criticise them and would rather live happily ever after in the magical world of pixies and gumdrops and rainbows and unicorns. Sadly, that view on cynicism has caused a lot of people to regard the philosophy in a negative way.

Nobody likes a cynic. That's okay, because we don't like everyone else.

One famous cynic was Diogenes. He would go around Athens in broad daylight with a lantern. When people asked him what he was doing, he would say "I am just looking for an honest man".

cynic

A person who boldly tells it like it is. A person who sees the world without a blindfold covering the eyes.

And that explains why nobody likes cynics.

BACA (Being a Cynical Asshole) Disorder

Psychological disorder that develops sometime after puberty, just as full maturity is about to be reached. This disorder appears when everything and everybody you found cool as a teenager suddenly starts looking really lame, unoriginal, boring, douchy and most of all, shitty. People who suffer from it (a very small percentage of the population, as the vast majority keep on loving all this mediocrity well into their last days...) are not afraid to call people around them on their bullshit, and sometimes do so to the point of alienating themselves; therefore developing a very strong, independent, supreme-asshole personality (although some of them hate themselves for liking such utter crap at some early point of their lives).

- "Baby, let's go watch that new Gerard Butler movie, it looks funny..."
- "What?!?? I'd rather slit my penis' vein with a rusty bottle cap than having to sit through that piece of movie-making rape!!!! Call one of your douchy girlfriends..."
- "I see, your BACA (Being a Cynical Asshole) Disorder is acting up again. Better yet! Who the hell wants to sit in a dark theater next to your grouchy ass??..."

cynical romantic

Someone who thinks loves is a really nice thing and a great ideal, but believes that it is something that will realistically never happen for them.

"John really enjoys being around Erika, but he won't ask her out because he's convinced himself that any relationship would inevitably crash and burn. He's such a cynical romantic."
