happy
adj. An incredibly rare—or perhaps mythical—condition in which a person finds himself* without anything to complain about. Or, for certain personalities, when a person finds himself* with something to complain about.
The paradoxical nature of this condition obviously complicates matters, but it doesn't prevent most people from devoting a significant portion of their lives in grim pursuit of being happy. This is itself a paradox, but most people get bored (see 'happiness, pursuit of' in the previous sentence) long before following the logic to its proper conclusion.
* Note: for those of you objecting to the use of "himself" to apply to both male and female readers, here's a happiness pop quiz. If you're enjoying your sense of indignance then you fall into the second category and should stop reading now, because I've made you happy. If you're not enjoying being indignant, then you belong to the first category. In that case, please accept a heartfelt "herself or himself," and now you can go back to being just as happy—or unhappy—as you were previously.
