The Glade 4.0

Every year the world happiness index is published.

Every year I question their sanity:


For 2016 (Top 13 included to show America...they ranked a lot more countries than this, 13 is still near the top):

1. Denmark
2. Switzerland
3. Iceland
4. Norway
5. Finland
6. Canada
7. Netherlands
8. New Zealand
9. Australia
10. Sweden
11. Israel
12. Austria
13. United States

What baffles me here - while all of these countries have a great quality of life in many respect, it seems to me that the 6 highest countries on the list are also 6 of the 7 COLDEST countries on the list (with Sweden's position at 10 being the outlier), and trust a Canadian: Winter is NOT a happy season, here.

I'm guessing that for much of the year, there's not much to do besides get drunk and have sex. So, at least 50% of the population is happy.

Beat me to it.
