Happy 14½ is an EP by the American avant-garde band King Missile. It was released in 1992, shortly before the band's album Happy Hour. The EP was intended for promotional use only, and not supposed to be sold; nonetheless, copies are sometimes available in "used" sections of record stores because some people who received the EP sold it anyway.

Just as Happy Hour is approximately one hour long, Happy 14½ is approximately 14½ minutes in length.
