Me too. It might have been worse, though. I made several close calls on the un-cynical side.

Hmmmph. Joe, you have overstepped the line here. Friends, I did not start this thread, it was started by our dear Webmaster in the Sky, Lord of the Haziverse.

Who me, cynical? I am the quintessential Pollyanna. All you cynical people just need to look at the bright side. Everything is beautiful, it is all good, it is all in how you perceive it.

And some day, I will have health insurance, too!

Ironically, the original meaning of the word cynic probably best describes Liz and how she views the world!! :sl:

The "original" meaning? So, we are getting into etymology here? Care to enlighten us?

You Are 68% Cynical
You're a full blown cynic... and probably even skeptical of these results.
You have your optimistic moments, but most likely, you keep them to yourself.

Ok, I didn't notice the link. I came up with 44%. A realist.

Yeah right. That's a real pumpkin scientific test run by some idiot out to market that blog. I am not that cynical. :A1: ;)

Just kidding. I'm a realist. Don't trust my government but still believe in love and the basic goodness of most people (at least the ones I can grab by the throat and beat some truth into).

Wow! I'm 80% Cynical! That's GREAT news! I'm only 20% Apathetic... And while I give no credence to that site, whatsoever, I did find out that ..."God chose my birthday for a reason. I could Instantly learn 12 shocking secrets my birthday reveals about my future!"

I didn't feel like it... :o

12% Cynical... but then again, I'm old. Maybe I just forget to be cynical. Is it better to be cynical or conical?

48% - But I'm also a realist - But then I already knew that. ;)

I'm only 32% cynical, how sad.

Let me drop a couple definitions however:

"Marked by an often ill-natured inclination to stress faults and raise objections"

"Contemptuously distrustful of human nature and motives"

8% cynical...almost naive. Embarrassing to report this. :oops:
