Quote for the day

"Boy, I'm in a great mood!"

"Oh, please. You can't REALLY be in a great mood. There are people out there who just got raises, got married, are being reunited with their families as we speak! How dare you say you're happy?!"

That ^^^ is the equivalent of someone saying you can't be sad because other people have it worse than you.

Yes.

Happy, happy Christmas, that can win us back to the delusions of our childhood days, recall to the old man the pleasures of his youth, and transport the traveler back to his own fireside and quiet home!

'Twas Christmas broach'd the mightiest ale;
'Twas Christmas told the merriest tale;
A Christmas gambol oft could cheer
The poor man's heart through half the year.
~Walter Scott
