The Pursuit of Grouchiness

National Grouch Day
-- According to Sesame Street Magazine: This day was created for all grouches to celebrate their way of life. A Grouch's mission in life is to be as miserable and grouchy as possible and pass that feeling on to everyone else. Only then will a Grouch feel in touch with his or her world and be happy. Yet, even though a Grouch may show happiness at anyone's misfortune (including his or her own), a Grouch would never admit to being happy. Such is the stability of a Grouch's life: so balanced, and yet so unbalanced.

Read: The Pursuit of Grouchiness
-- In The Pursuit of Grouchiness, Oscar the Grouch teaches you how to lose friends and grouchily influence people. There's no greater expert on celebrating a crummy day than Oscar the Grouch. After complaining about cheerfulness for decades from his trash can on Sesame Street, Oscar now shares his secrets for making sure you’re as curmudgeonly as possible, all day, every day. It's the perfect gift for your grouchy friends, your annoyingly upbeat friends who could stand to be a little grouchier, and even just yourself―because a bad day can always get worse. Now get lost! And have a rotten day
