someone who always expects the worst and most selfish motives out of everyone and everything. Otherwise known as experienced.
1. These charity adverts are a great way to fleece you for all your money. Those dudes living in mud was probably 50 years ago. They have schools now. And a sewerage treatment place.
2. Disneyland is great but I'm not waiting 2 hours to see ''sleeping beauty''. She's either made of plastic or some lazy cow who's paid to sleep in all day. Besides, one floor is hardly impressive for a castle.
The above are cynical examples.

The most misused word on the internet.
To be cynical is to tend to view people as by their own self-interest.
Not to be confused with pessimism, which is a tendency to believe that a bad outcome is more likely than a good one.
Also, not to be confused with skepticism, which is when you would doubt the truth of something and demand evidence.
Person 1: I'm cynical about the future.
Person 2: You mean pessimistic, right?
Person 1: Pessimistic! Yes, sorry, that's what I meant.
