Thank God I'm not in Canada. Here in Europe everyone is happy as a crab 😐
That whole "future looks grim" thing doesn't really help being happy I guess.
It really does look grim man. It does matter a bit where you live, but when i listen to my canadian friend, i feel like it's just like here on steroids. He always tells me how he lives in a tiny shitty apartment but pays like 1500 canadian per month and they want to raise rent by 400 buckeroos. Which over here is super illegal and it's also already too expensive. I pay 1600 a month for a whole ass house. I have friends who live in the city and they already pay as much for a really old not too big flat. I do often wonder how people afford to have kids, or what their plan is for the future.
Interesting regional difference
Always heard “happy as a clam”
To be honest I forgot what it should be. German here.
Maybe it's happy as a Miesmuschel
But I do like boobies as well.
Edit: I had "healthy as a crab" in mind. From good old Futurama, season 1.
