- considerate drivers giving way even tho they didn't have to
- a damn good meal
- bringing happiness to my loved ones
- finding $$ that i've forgotten about
- buying goodies for my ride ( with the newly recovered $$ )
- getting along with family
- being able to give $$ or gift to the mrs. The glow on her face is priceless
- playing my guitar and listening to good music
- paying off my debts
- taking a big ass dump
- moderate amount of alcohol
- top scorer in cs
etc etc etc

These +1

Plus, the fact that my eyes, ears, nose, ect, all work fine. I have all my arms and legs, fingers and toes too. I dont have any illnesses, I really, when thinking about it, have nothing to complain about. Stupid "Little things that piss you off" thread. lol

Also, along with blackOps. My wife is now addictged..walking into my room with her playing, with a headset on, in only her G? Ow Em Gee, perfect end to a work day

Waking up and wanting to go to work.

and being happy

-The feeling you get after you've done a good clean on your car
-Seeing your GF's face light up over the smallest things
-XBL with mates and talking smack
-Hanging out with mates and talking smack
-Driving from A to B while following Chris/Andy in their cars

A car with excellent handling on a lonely back road.
The rare Sunday afternoons where I can sit down and watch some sport.
A quiet game of pool with a few mates. I suck at pool but wgaf.
Completing projects around the house that have been outstanding for ages.
Looking at something that seems daunting but overcoming it anyway, be it shifting something "too heavy" or fixing something "broken".

Lol, cheeky sod

My 3 daughters all getting along and playing together without the cat fights makes me happy

annnnd mad gobbies from my mrs

When you tell your toddler that you love them, and they turn around out of the blue and say "love you too dadda"
Taking said toddler to the park to feed the ducks (her favourite thing to do right now) and being tuned by the milfs at the park that think she is gorgeous...

aww theres sensitivity in NZH after all
The way kiwi drivers dip their headlights to warn of upcoming police / speed cameras. + 1 i make a habit of doing this as well.
