Cynical Asshole Syndrome (CAS)
Cynical Asshole Syndrome is a condition that makes the majority of things in everyday life seem shit and meaningless.
CAS usually develops as a person gets older but can occur from as early as birth.
It is believed to be linked to the following:
Popular Culture
Fucking Awful Hollywood Movies
Advertising
TV Shows such as X-Factor, I'm a Celebrity, Big Brother and Jersey/Geordie Shore
Paris Hilton
Mcdonalds
Insecurity
TV Soap Operas
Luck
Justin Bieber
Having your heart stamped on by an ex-partner
PTD (Post Travel Depression)
Having shitty parents

CAS is infectious and can spread to other people. Infection becomes more likely to those that spend alot of time with a current CAS sufferer.
In extreme cases CAS can develop into Gothic Syndrome

"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."

cynical optimist
A cynical optimist rejects the position that 'realism' is the only alternative to the extremes of pessimism and optimism. Instead, cynical optimism emphasizes that a reality can be sustained through a blending of the extremes. Indeed, cynical optimists would argue that the blending best describes the "reality" that "realists" have thus far failed to suitably articulate.
A: So, from a cynical optimists point of view - what IS the meaning of life?
B: We're all going to die. And many of us will die slowly and painfully. Then again, we're probably not going to die today. More importantly, MOST of our days, we're going to live; and only on one of them will we die. That's ... not such a bad deal. And, even if WERE a bad deal, it's the only deal in town. So, I'd make the most of the mundane while you still can.
A: How does that significantly differentiate you from existentialists?
B: Dude! Because I'm submitting to Urban Dictionary, not Cambridge University Press.
