National Grouch Day

According to Sesame Street Magazine, October 15  th is  National  Grouch  Day : a day for all  Grouches  to celebrate their way of life.

Just as, expected , a Grouch 's mission in life is to be as miserable &  grouchy  as possible , & pass that feeling on to everyone else. Only then will a  Grouch  really feel in touch w/ his or her world & actually 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, & yet so unbalanced.  Oscar the Grouch  is especially aware of this, as is his girlfriend  Grundgetta .
