Grumpy Bear

Moody cartoon creature

Grumpy Bear is a character from the Care Bears franchise—a blue bear with a raincloud symbol on his belly.

True to his name, he's perpetually cranky and pessimistic, serving as a foil to the cheerier bears.

The name has become shorthand for someone in a sour mood: Don't be such a Grumpy Bear.
