Take on the happiness index

There was some study published a few months ago which tested overall happiness.  I was surprised that the USA had one of the higher levels of happiness out there because everybody here is always pissed off and angry.  Although Canadians are much happier even if they are forced to watch hockey around the clock which I guess is because they have Montreal's fantastic night life. Holland does well despise the fact you have to wash your hands with cold water and their entire concept of fashion revolves around wearing a many colors as humanly possible in as tight a art of clothes as you can squeeze themselves into

The study found a bunch of the sub Saharan counties to have the lowest happiness index which made sense and a bunch of others like Spain, Greece, Egypt and Syria had major declines over the few years which could all be attributed to larger issues in the country

The other countries on the list with low levels included China (the place is one gigantic smog pit), India (millions of people living on abject poverty) and places like Iraq and Afghanistan.   Mexico, despite the deadly drug trade and all those bad burritos ranks about even with the US which proves that all those siestas do help improve happiness and all the East Asian counties seem to get lumped in together proving that bad haircuts and pork fries rice does offer some joy. 

But what is most impressive is that the top of the list of happiness are all those Nordic countries, despite the fact they get about 2 hours of sunlight half the year.  I couldn't quite figure out what made these Vikings so happy, till I saw a map of the area and realized the entire region looks like one gigantic flaccid penis with jizz all over the top of Europe.  It's like those savages decided to use the EU and jam it's gigantic two headed winkie right in all available orifice and then explode all over it' ample breasts and as any man knows, the happiest and most content five minutes of his life is right after sex. 

Here is the complete list, it's a few months old so I'd imagine the 2014 one will have some movement (Ukraine, Malaysia, Russia).
