About National Curmudgeons Day
An annual celebration of the crusty, yet insightful, wags who consistently apply the needle of truth to the balloons of hypocrisy and social norms.
Merriam Webster defines a curmudgeon as “a crusty, ill-tempered, and usually old man.”
This day is observed annually on January 29th, marking the birthday of W.C. Fields, one of America's most beloved curmudgeons.
