We recently watched the Care Bears movies. I don't know why, but I feel the need to say that I misjudged Grumpy Bear as a child. All this time I thought he was just ornery thing who maybe couldn't stand so many visibly happy creatures around him. It turns out that isn't it at all! The secret is that Grumpy Bear is actually just a really unlucky bear! Throughout both movies, things are falling on him, machines are manhandling him, whatever he's standing on is always about to break, and so on. And to add to this monstrous injustice, every time some new misfortune befalls him all his "friends" point and laugh at "angry old Grumpy Bear." I'd wear a permanent scowl too if I couldn't step into the Forest of Feelings without a tree falling on me.
