Evidence at last of the virtues and benefits of grumpiness:

UKM boasts many great GOMs (and GYWs no doubt

) amongst its illustrious membership.

I was first 'spotted' and admitted into the grumpy fraternity at the age of three, and have never looked back, and have since then frequently had cause to scowl at passing idiots who accosted me with the glib greeting 'Cheer up, mate, it may never happen!'. Grrrrrrr

No doubt we will all greatly enjoy finding cause to feel grumpy about the above article

What complete and utter load of old rubbish! Who on earth do these people think they are, conducting their studies and their research and suggesting being grumpy is good - they want something better to do, they really do! I just don't believe it - the type of rubbish they come out with is unbelievable! Humph!

There I feel better now!!
