Here are some places they left out;

Pyongyang, North Korea - How could they not include a workers paradise under the rule of Kim Jong "mentally" Il.

Caracas, Venezuela - Hugo Chavez is just turning that country around with Socialism. So you can't get milk, bread and other basics at the local supermarket but hey that's the price you pay for living in a happy Socialist paradise.

Tehran, Iran - Free elections just thrive in a place like Iran, just remember to stay home and watch movies on TV and ignore the horrifying screams and police sirens, remember your happy!

I'm sure their are other happy places to live just as nice as the three I mentioned.

That was just TOO MUCH! I wouldn't live in ANY of those places! Is this a joke, or what? :laugh:

It's really what I was thinking.  A banana republic being the happiest place?

Yes, I was surprised they left out a whole host of wonderful African hellholes to add to their collection of 3rd world dumpsters to live in.  One of their top ten, Honduras is in the throes of a political crisis and recently had a military coup.

This list showed with inadvertent brilliance how one should not subscribe to the crappy rag that Life has turned into.

Masha:
Wait, is this a joke? This IS a joke, right? Is there some article that comes with it? Is there any explanation as to why these places are "happy"?
