      It’s the weather.

      It really impacts your mood, but also how social you can be and what activities you can do.

      If Ireland had Italy’s weather, safe to say people would be a lot more happy/optimistic (and also in better shape!)

      Can’t be getting ahead of ourselves. We are more optimistic than we will ever be allowed to admit

    3. „Smile!“ they said, „life could be worse!“
      So I did…
      … and it was.

      Well, sorry if we’ve spotted the rather obvious trend of decline in the last decade.

      Well they only surveyed 60 countries, so that rules out like 150 to begin with.

    6. Can’t even top a simple happy clappy quiz. Typical. Inevitable even

      As an outsider that hangs out this sub this doesn’t surprise me in the slightest lol, granted I know Reddit is not a good reflection of reality

      Ahead of Denmark!

      Wild that places like Moldova would be more optimistic. I guess when you’re coming from a low place you may think things can only improve. But places like Ireland and France may feel they have had good times and can’t hold on to them, and unlike the yanks are more pesimistic by nature.

    9. „Ireland has ranked 15th in the 2025 World Happiness Report, making it one of the happiest countries in the world.“

    10. Number 1 politician looks like a hemorrhoidal bank manager, and Number 2 looks like a 70s sitcom undertaker.

      I’ll do better this year, just hard to commit myself full time to the moaning.

      I’ve not looked at the full list but I’m betting those Danish bastards have beaten us again.

      Sure lookit, down with excessive optimism anyway.

    14. Honestly, I’ve been away for nearly 3 years now. It’s gone so sad because every single thing I read about Ireland is negative.

      Sadly the negative stuff gets the most traction but honestly, there isn’t a whole lot of things that are going good at the minute.

    15. I would argue that the majority of us are not gullible and taper our expectations for the coming year being better based on the fact that we can see things are getting worse. Having been to other countries, an effort is made to give people facilities to enjoy themselves and forgot about all the shit going on in the world. There’s nothing done in this country to encourage joy. It’s just about what more can be squeezed out of us. So we become cynical of everything.
