Why is that a bummer?
The ant misses out on good times and bad ones- the grasshopper lives for these extremes. If you want to live it up and accept that you'll have to pay for it in the morning- hell, knock yourself out. All too often though you get grasshoppers who think they can be ants when it's wintertime, or don't think winter will ever come (Wall St. comes to mind). There's the real bummer.
I always liked the story of the grasshopper and the ant.
Lazy, good-for-nothing grasshoppers.
The bummer is: the grasshoppers of the world sure seem to enjoy life more.
