Give me one non-cynical sentence.

CYNICAL
1: captious, peevish
2: having or showing the attitude or temper of a cynic: as
a : contemptuously distrustful of human nature and motives
b : based on or reflecting a belief that human conduct is motivated primarily by self-interest

Uhhh

This may have been a good idea on the Brian Lehrer show, buts its turned into a kind of dull affair here, despite all the nice sentiments.

This one wasn't on the BL show.

I made this one up. I don't think it's dull. I think it's great and I hope people continue to post non cynical statements.
