one of my favorite things ever is the badass heavy metal drum fill that punctuates the end of the Golden Girls theme song.

Go give it a listen. It's this adorable little composition, and whoever the studio drummer was just went "fuck this being a friend shit I'm going to give these fuckers a god. damn. ending." And that he did. It seems like a super simple snare fill kind of moment but nope lol. Every time I hear it I just explode with joy.
Anybody care to share examples of this type of joy you experience in your life? Random little moments that might not get talked about a lot, but are a mainstay in your lived experience?
When a cat yawns and I can see the inside of its mouth. I don't know why, I just love it. It feels private and secret and special, maybe.
When the song ends just as I'm pulling into wherever I'm going.
I managed to do that with Abbey Road of all things, though a Round Trip example. Started the album on my way out. Paused it while doing some errands. Went home, and it finished up just as I pulled in. Of course, I had to get lucky with traffic flow, so I don't expect to be able to intentionally repeat it.
