i think i kind of match rogues49's definition of a cynic.
the thing is, a cynical person has little if anything to value in lies or falseties.
some people can be so cynical that they don't realized how bad they've become and they tend to crush people's ideals. i od not consider this type to be only cynical, but hopelessly lost also.
myself, as rogue put, has 'been hit on the head enough times' to know all things turn out honky dory. yet i have hopes: I just never hope as much as most people do and rarely place bets on things coming out right in the end.
so, you tell me... if a person says 'most likely that guy won't live to see twenty due to his disease' and its the truth, is he cynical? no. he's honest.
a 'too cynical' is a person who see no hope and willingly crushes other's hope as well..... those people need to stfu.
expect the bad, when it happens you are neautrel and when something great happens you have more reason to rejoice. - easy code to live by, really.
