really happy people with an awesome life don't usually feel the need to tell me how awesome their life is.
Reminds me of a woman I knew who used to gush about how awesome her husband was and how great they got along, and how much they loved each other. But everyone knew he was a drunk who abused her, gambled, and cheated on her.

Which is worse - fake happy people, or Debbie Downers? I am sick of people with bad attitudes. I would take a little sugar right now - even if it is a totally fake, chemical sugar substitute.
Oh wait - I think that is the director I'm working with, and I want to punch her at least 50% of the time. Bring on Debbie!

It might - if it weren't for all those stupid consequences.

I agree. It often seems to me that those who turn every conversation around to how awesome they're doing* are really trying to convince themselves... *This goes for discussion of sex lives too! Not that anyone around here ever does that.

90% of people are unhappy in their marriage, the other 10% are unhappy too - they just don't know it yet.

I am much more annoyed by happy people who walk around telling everyone that "things happen for a reason" and "we should always look at the bright side" and "everything is G-d's will" and "it could always be worse" so that's why they live their lives to the fullest and enjoy each and every moment. THOSE are the people I want to punch in a face and ask them how they are enjoying THAT moment

I always answer "Oh, okay - great idea." And then walk away. It usually makes the other person feel like an ass, and they will come to you an hour later eating crow and trying to make sense of their statement. I just stare at them and say "It's okay." But in my head - they are dead to me.

That's because they wait until you're out of the room to start talking smack! If they're good, you never find out.

People who are always too happy make me feel suspect of them. I mean, there is a lot of tragedy in the world, how can that NOT touch or affect a person? I wonder if they are totally self absorbed or have their heads buried in the sand.

Do I want to know what if swamp wasn't on 'happy' pills? Talk about different understanding of 'happy'!!! People who are always too happy make me feel suspect of them. I mean, there is a lot of tragedy in the world, how can that NOT touch or affect a person? I wonder if they are totally self absorbed or have their heads buried in the sand. HOW in the world people who are always too happy make you feel suspect of them? Suspect of what? Espionage? Why is it even your business? 'They shooby not happy! They shooby like...Shooby!..nervous racks!!!' Geez!

And some will say anything opposite of what they really feel or is being discussed just to be contrary. ;D I think people who fake being happy are assinine. Why waste a sincere "happy" by faking it? But then some people fake organisms and I don't get that either. ETA: HAHAHAHAHA at spell check changing orgasm to organisms! I didn't notice that before.
