I
find it hard to believe that people want to celebrate grumpiness—but,
let's face it, sometimes we all feel a bit down. And maybe being
cranky is common for many in the month of January, what with the days
being so short and dark and all.
Instead
of celebrating grumpiness, per se, I'd like to celebrate the words we
use to talk about the feeling.
The best of all, of course, are
curmudgeon and curmudgeonly and curmudgeonliness!
Here
are some more words I like. You might be a curmudgeon if you are
often...
grouchy
cranky
whiny
crusty
ornery
crabby
cross
fractious
irritable
vinegary
waspish
testy
peevish
surly
and
of course, the second best word in the bunch:
cantankerous!
Aren't
those some super great words?
Here
are some ways to enjoy curmudgeons today:
Order
yourself a Grumpy Cat calendar, book, plush toy, or mug!
(Wow!) Or just enjoy your average Grumpy Cat “memes.”
