What does "cynic" mean?

a person who has grown enough to see that some things in life aren't wonderful and sometimes people are selfish or disappointing, but has failed to find the humor and irony in this or realistically observe the many good things that also happen in life. oftentimes cynics seem to enjoy attempting to destroy the faith and joy found by other people--even when that faith serves no purpose than to make its owner balanced and happy as a human being.

Amanda said she believes she can accomplish great things in her life if she believes in herself, and Rob being a cynic felt it was his duty to crush this belief which hurt no one and only helped Amanda, thereby making Amanda sad. Rob needs to get a life.

Cynic - what does it mean?

Someone who looks at the world without the blindfold of modern day society. Cynics look at the world like a critic, always judging it. They aren't afraid to speak their minds and give the facts without embelishing them.

Caitlin(non-cynic): Aw, I wish they had a cure for cancer so that poor little boy wouldn't have to die!
Andrew(cynic): We're all slowly dying, why try to prolong the inevitable?

John(non-cynic): Damn it! Why does the sun have to be so bright? I hate it when it gets in my eyes!
Matt(cynic): In a million years, the sun is going to expand and roast the Earth, turning it into a burning lump of rock, so just be glad.

Bob(non-cynic): Jeez, Paris Hilton is sooo damn SEXY!
David(cynic): She's a spoiled, lazy, stupid, ditzy waste of space. She's not even good at anything. She's just famous because her dad owns some hotel that we never even hear about. Plus, she has no boobs.

A person who boldly tells it like it is. A person who sees the world without a blindfold covering the eyes.

Cynic

One who doesn't believe in innate human virtue. Cynicism, contrary to popular belief, does not entail being an offensive and ignorant idiot. Only the offensive part, because most people don't like how cynics criticise them and would rather live happily ever after in the magical world of pixies and gumdrops and rainbows and unicorns. Sadly, that view on cynicism has caused a lot of people to regard the philosophy in a negative way.

Nobody likes a cynic. That's okay, because we don't like everyone else.

One famous cynic was Diogenes. He would go around Athens in broad daylight with a lantern. When people asked him what he was doing, he would say "I am just looking for an honest man".
