52% - Yeah, like a pumpkin internet quiz written by kings of cynicitiy are going to get MY personality tagged after a few black and white questions.
Reminds me of the personality test I took that told me I was "reliable, analytical and completely un-funny". Still trying to live that one down with Mr. Wendy...

"Cynicism, in its original form, refers to the beliefs of an ancient school of Greek philosophers known as the Cynics. Their philosophy was that the purpose of life was to live a life of Virtue in agreement with Nature. This meant rejecting all conventional desires for wealth, power, health, and fame, and by living a simple life free from all possessions. As reasoning creatures, people could gain happiness by rigorous training and by living in a way which was natural for humans."azbackpackr wrote:The "original" meaning? So, we are getting into etymology here? Care to enlighten us?

I think that means by taking advantage of other humans. Is that cynical enough?jeffmacewen wrote:people could gain happiness by ... living in a way which was natural for humans.

Hmmm, exactly describes hippies in Hawaii in the 80's. ;) Except for the health part. Why would one not want to be healthy? That is just dumb.
