Cynicism - Fellow cynics unite.

So what? You'd do it, too. If, that is, IF, you had the chance. Now you're just jealous.
 
There's no such things as absolutes.

Am I the only one cynical enough to see the problem with statements like this?

Bunch of posers. I was cynical before blaXXer made it trendy.

Pssht. I'm so cynical I can write ironic absolute statements about the pointlessness of absolutism with a straight face.

And that's right, blaXXer wants to unite the cynics, probably to get them in one place so he can schill his unabashed, idealistic hope for the future. :angryrazz:

I think you're even more cynical than that.

I think you're only pretending to be ironic, in a cynical effort to cover up your previous earnestness.

And that's right, blaXXer wants to unite the cynics, probably to get them in one place so he can schill his unabashed, idealistic hope for the future. :angryrazz:

I agree.

I don't trust anyone who says he's only in it for the money.

Aren't we all pretending? I distrust the cynical community.

So you're saying you're waiting for a Communist Utopia?

Of course. I just don't trust anyone who's open about their pretenses. They're generally just trying to cover up their sincerity.

Not at all.

But when someone says, "I'm only doing this for the money," it makes me wonder what they're planning to spend it on.
 
Heh. Check this out. I think I actually shocked someone with my cynicism.

You've been a bad influence, blaXXer.

And by 'bad,' I mean 'good.'
 
Heh. Check this out. I think I actually shocked someone with my cynicism.
All I see is someone crying out for validation they'll never get from fellow cynics...

Why did I say that? I don't trust my motives....back to apathy for me, I guess. If I can be bothered.
 
I'm an Idealistic Cynic. My glass may be half empty, but the Iced Tea is tasty. :cool:
