But whenever God delivers His people in any remarkable way, as the years go by, whatever new wineskin was involved in it will turn gradually into an old wineskin.

Grumpy people are stuck with the vocabulary of gladness. This gives them new material to work on, new and challenging material to distort. Given enough time, however, distort it they will.
