Gets rated as the happiest country for yet another consecutive year.

Why! What am I missing!? Who here is happy?!!

Maybe we're doing "fake it before you make it" for the ratings

[–] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 5 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Or we're just generally content with life, which makes for a good average rating

[–] boredtortoise@lemm.ee 2 points 11 months ago

Yeah but it lacks the joke factor.

I always assumed the saddest ones killed themselves, so the average goes up.

We're happier than other countries on average. Idk how people don't get how that ranking works

One of my favorite comments I've seen was last time one of these surveys were posted and a Finn responded "It's not that we're happier than everyone else, it's just that the world is going to hell and we were already used to it".
