Why National Do a Grouch a Favor Day?

Let me be honest with you. I have no idea, no clue at all. You see, nothing about this day has been recorded, but I like to believe it was a Squidward fan who came up with helping a grouch. Someone out there who looked at the grouches just having a bad time or the permanent grouches and thought, “we need to make his day better if we want to survive.”

At this point, you are probably thinking, what is wrong with the writer! You are also wondering if there is a point to this holiday. Let me assure you, there is. How many times have you had simply a bad day, and everything annoys you. You go crazy with anger and irritation at the tiniest of things. Have you ever wished something would turn your day around, but nothing really does?

That is the spirit of the day. You go out of your way and make it a day less filthy for those who feel this way on a regular. You take away a little bit of their unhappiness and replace it with just a little sparkle, and it does not even take as much effort as you believe.

Besides, we have all been a grouch at least once or twice, if not always, and there has always been someone to help us understand that we are not alone, that the annoyance comes to an end, and everything goes back to normal. It is about time we do that for someone. Granted, we do not need a specific day to help people out; we can do it any day. But giving it a name makes us realize that it has greater importance than what is let on.

How Can We Observe National Do a Grouch a Favor Day:

• Talk.

This is the best and the easiest way to celebrate them. Just listen to their grumblings, or maybe even add your own. Who knows, maybe after this little task, you will understand why they are the way they are. Maybe you will even find something common to be grumpy about!

• Get them a little something.

Are they fresh out of stapler pins? Do they need a new notebook or pen or a pair of scissors? Go out and get it for them. If that does not feel personal, bake them a bunch of cookies and get them dinner. Food is never the wrong answer.

• Grump love.

If you know a grouch who knows they are grouchy, this activity is perfect. Let them know they are your favorite grouch.
