Why I Love Grumpy Cat

Grumpy Cat makes me anything but grumpy

Why I Love Grumpy Cat

In this time of major cultural sensitivity in the US, people are careful to not say anything that could offend anyone else or sound insensitive. However, there is one being who is never afraid to say what he wants to. Grumpy Cat is 100 percent willing to speak his mind and get real with people. I feel many people find themselves riding the sympathy train and getting down in the dumps about really anything. I love Grumpy cat because he goes to the extreme of agreeing that all situations suck. Grumpy Cat has a deadpan sort of humor and the more I hear of it, the better of a person I become.

Grumpy Cat has a long history. He was born on April 4, 2012. At that time, he was merely a funny meme. That all was about to change. As the grumpy cat grew in popularity, so did the whole Grumpy Cat franchise. Grumpy Cat expanded his realm beyond just the internet. From being an internet sensation, to now being found on pillows, plush toys, calendars and even tattoos (I of course have two sets of these tattoos), Grumpy Cat seems to be unstoppable. What is the key to his success? It is very simple: Grumpy Cat has a very rude and deadpan language that people find refreshing.

Grumpy Cat says a great deal of amazing small phrases. This makes Grumpy Cat versatile for all situations.

He has phrases that are meant to intensify a bad mood such as, “Having a bad day? Good.” Phrases like that kind of lighten the mood and make your anger seem ridiculous.

Grumpy Cat has things to say to ruin happy situations such as, “new year, same frown.”

He also has things to say at any time such as, “I had fun once… it sucked.” Another thing he does is change common phrases to a negative version: “When life gives you lemons, throw them at someone,” or “stop and stomp the flowers.”

These are the things I just love. Grumpy cat always is serious and upset to the extreme which actually causes an opposite reaction of amusement.

Unfortunately, some people have lost interest in Grumpy Cat.

Some people remember him from his prime years back in 2012-14, but they have forgotten that he is still live and well. Grumpy Cat never stops being grumpy and he never runs out of bad things to say. And as far as I am concerned, he is still very funny. Let’s be real, how many other people or things do you know who are always crabby and have bad things to say?

Grumpy Cat is grumpy, and he can always change your mood for the better with his absurdity.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
