I'm sure you all over read Dr. Seuss' "How The Grinch Stole Christmas," as well as the live action film that debuted in 2000. Most of us have seen the movie, and I believe we can all agree that Jim Carrey's portrayal of the title character was pretty dang brilliant. Rather than the grumpy, furry Scrooge in the book, the film wrote the Grinch as being a green, lovable introvert. Here's a list of reasons why the Grinch is a boss and basically me.
1. He accurately described what we all do while looking through our high school yearbook.
GiphyWe all have those people.
3. He knew when it was necessary to leave the house.
GiphyAfter at least four hours of Netflix and chill...
12. He had no shame. None.
Giphy"You're as cuddly as a cactus, you're as charming as an eel, Mr. Grinch."
14. Did I mention his experience with the feels?
Giphy"And they say his heart grew three sizes that day."
16. He knew how irritating people could be.
GiphyThis is literally me when someone is whining about something so stupid.
20. He expressed the disdain of getting ugly clothes for Christmas.
GiphyEspecially the clothes your relatives get you... *shudder*
21. Speaking of Christmas, his description of its music was on point.
GiphyI love it, yet despise it.
22. He was a softie underneath that green fur and spite, just like you and I.
GiphyWe're all good people on the inside. Don't let our outer grinches fool you.
23. He was all of us when we declared we were going to shed some pounds.
Giphy"Yes! Down a size and a half!"
24. And lastly, he told us the sad truth about children.
Giphy"How dare you enter The Grinch's lair?!"
Just like Mr. Grinch, don't touch me with a thirty nine and a half foot pole!
