Cynic:  a faultfinding captious critic; especially one who believes that human conduct is motivated wholly by self-interest

contemptuously distrustful of human nature and motives

implies having a sneering disbelief in sincerity or integrity

suggests a rooted distrust and dislike of human beings and their society


Lily Tomlin was making a joke . . . were you?
