How cynical.

It's interesting to see some cynicism from the conservative point of view for once, though.

I think that people are too cynical. It's become second nature to question everything without a real reason for doing it. That's why I prefer I Think, with its peculiar musings on things like vending machines and those white bugs that crawl across books, to so-called "rant pages" where people talk about how Everything Is Terrible and The Government Is Screwing Us Over and Big Businesses Are Exploiting You and Gee, Society Isn't Swell. I think a lot of that, though, is just used to put the blame on someone else because the writer feels better blaming a faceless group or culture for his problems rather than his own misgivings.

Oops, I think that thought counts as cynical.

Dang.
