Things that make you cry
June 17th, 2008 by Sarah Morrison
My Macbook won’t turn on. I am trying to use my PC, but it’s old, retarded, and the desktop is a picture of my dead cat. The broken Macbook is on one side of the office. The retarded PC on the other side. I am trying to use Felipe’s computer which is stressing me out more than the other two combined, due to the fact like half the keys get stuck when you type. Sam just walked over to me and I burst into tears.
I found this list in a notebook from some discussion Brooke, Melissa, and me had in the car one day. (I used to write things down before I had a Blackberry.) I am unclear exactly who said what or what “dogs?” is referring to….
What ridiculous things make you guys cry?





















haha…
JAMIROQUAI.
I cry only to jamiroquai if I hear it in a place that I’m not used to.
I love the music so much it makes me cry.
which is really fuckin’ lame.
loosing my fucking shades.
liars.
when my bus is over an hour late in the bitter cold.
oh and when my shoe repair man doesn’t have my shoes ready on time.
that show Meerkat Manor always makes me cry
sometimes commercials make me cry, like the adoption one where a dog is being taken away and the other dog is sadly looking at it all happening. People that treat me like a young kid, it’s frustrating. I may look young but I’m 25 fuckers(this happened the other day when a lady backed into my car and said it was my fault). Losing something and not being able to find it when I know I had it a moment ago (this happens a lot). A certain boy who tells me he likes me, who I have liked for a while and then disappears from my life. The smell of those rank trees…kinds smells like jizzzzz. Maybe I’m just emotional.
-when someone eats all the charms out of my Lucky Charms.
-when i cant find the shoes i want to wear.
-when DunkinDonuts is out of strawberry cream cheese and/or plain bagels.
-when i lose my phone.
-that part in the movie Click when Adamn Sandler is old and dying in the parking lot of the hospital in the future.
-sometimes i just find myself crying for no reason.
I cried on Christmas day while playing guitar hero, when my mom beat the Dragonforce song on medium and I couldn’t even complete it on easy. I was pmsing. I hate guitar hero
Daughter and (father or mother) movie montages
* When I get all excited on my way to Mickey-D’s to pick up a yummy M&M McFlurry and they tell me “Our ice cream machine is out of order”. Ugh - fix that sh*t!!!
* I.Am.Sam. : (
* The fact that Chick-Fil-A is closed on Sundays, when I crave fresh-squeezed limonada and gooey fudge brownies the most! SO disheartening.
* When the rhinestone pops off of my nail design. Bummmmmer.
* The time the pothole hit ME and it popped two tires and bent the front axle.
* Being a semi-broke college student with a semi-addictive shopping habit
… And many more …

i am sam….i watched that the other night.
Disney movies. Especially the Lion king.
When I see dead cats when I’m driving.
When I’m reminded that mean girls still exist when you’re in college, and even out of college.
Not being able to go shopping because I have to pay too many stupid fucking bills.
Ohhh being a giiirlll….
-When I laugh really hard that I cry and then someone points out that I’m crying, yea… that makes me cry more.
-Watching Bjork from 5 feet away while she preformed her last show ever in the states. I balled like 5 times, but when the lights came on - I noticed I wasnt alone.
-Portishead on audio, video and live.
-Shows on puppy mills.
-Reunions.
-La Bamba: RICHEEEEEEEEEE!
the end
who has time for emotions?
when I need to cry so badly its making me sick, but cant, I watch the movie Stay… its fucked and makes be bawl and I dont even know why
@MrBehave: Women.
And sometimes the men that cry more than their girls.
I’m sorry but who else gets grossed out by this?
When ur dude cries more than you do.
-realizing i spend of all my income on snacks
-late fees
-rudeasses
-broken technology
-infinite slobiness
billy joel songs are my kryptonite. only the good die young does it to me the worst, especially when played in the market.
13 going on 30 totally makes me cry. As does Willie Nelson, James Taylor, realizing i’ll never be a kid again, thinking about my parents eventually dying, Father of the Bride, bikini waxing myself, running into things when i’m drunk, thinking about my ex-boyfriend, etc.
everything when i am pmsing
watching Bjork made me cry too
anything on Animal Planet
when the brownie bites taste like onions because they put them too close to the everything bagels
Missing my turns makes me cry. And Lilo and Stitch. And the song, “West Coast” by Coconut Records, because I want to go back to LA reeeal bad. And the song “The Night Starts Here,” by Stars, because I heard that song the day I got fired, and the scene from that movie The Duke when the dog cries and a single tear rolls down his eye…ah, so sad.
I cried when wii fit told me my real age was 43!!
…My workout DVD made me cry today.
Is there anyone else out there that bawls like a baby when you watch a sad movie by yourself, but if you’re with people you have to try really really hard and act like you’re not about to cry?
What else… Getting blood drawn! Not only do I cry, I freak the fuck out. Like pass out kind of freak out. Last time, the lab tech kept trying to tell me dirty jokes to distact me. I just cried more.
also, I cry when I hear the birthday song.
today I also have a new reason to cry, my best friend told me she’s in love with me….so I lost my best friend. fuck man.
@fiveinchheels:
Wow. That’s so random. When that happens, don’t dwell on how your friendship was before this happened. It’ll make you sadder. Awww…that is sad. Have a good cry girl.
she was my ride or dieeee. Now what do I do? who do I turn to?
Are you asking me? I’m gonna answer anyway. Try to think about all the qualities that made her so awesome and look for someone else who has them. You can’t replace her, obvi, but maybe you can find someone new. Talk this sitch out with someone who doesn’t know her, cos their advice will be impartial. I know how it feels to lose a bestie…it’s shit. But amazing people come along everyday, and I had to remember that while I wasn’t gonna have another broad like her, I was gonna have another ride or die girl. I did. Turn to the people who know how to cheer you up. Drink a 40 in an alley, watch Clueless (that always cheers me up), punch a pillow (or person as the case may be). But I can only tell you from personal experience that it sucks right now, but when you meet that new bad broad, it’s amazing. btw, maybe you should make this an Ask Missbehave so girls who are far more eloquent and helpful can assist.
An awful lady stole my sunglasses last week. I cried, probably more than was necessary.
I am sam, yeah, makes me cry too. watch whats eating gilbert grape, i fucking bawled
i cried today because work was fucking shitty. I cry when residents pass away (I work in a special needs group home)
I cry when i fight with my husband.
Hey, I have a new one. Getiing THREE fuckin tickets @ ONE time, only FIVE minutes away from home! UggggggghhhhH!
Ticket # 1: Moving Violation - 7 mi over speed limit @ first, then another 5 mi when I was trying to get outta the officer’s way, thinkin he was chasing someone else.
Ticket #2: Moving violation while on the phone with my friend. We were SUPPOSED to be on the way to a fashion show. Needless to say, we didnt make it.
Ticket # 3: Moving violation while on the phone with a friend, driving a car whose tags expired in February. WTF?!?!? And I actually had the fresh new “09″ sticker in my purse, but that woulda seemed too sketch.
Long story short - today SUCKED ass!
Any donations to the “Help a Homegirl in Debt” foundation would be greatly appreciated. = )
Kthnxbai!
@Olivia….totes thinking about my parents dying makes me a trainwreck. Come to think of it I cried last night thinking what I’m going to do when my mom dies. Getting old sucks!
My mom is dying from cancer and I just broke up with my boyfriend so these days, EVERYTHING makes me cry. Grapes, Sylvan Learning commercials, everything. I just want to laugh again.
omg I’m so sorry to hear that Jess. Just hope for the best. idk what to say.
and thank you erikamarie. I truly appreciate you taking the time out to respond to me. I know this is for the best, I have to stop being selfish and let her be, this is definately harder on her than it is on me. I just hate that I’m the one who broke her heart.
@fiveinchheels:Don’t beat yourself up with that kind of guilt, because there is NO way you could go back and change this situation for a less painful outcome. But you’re right, she just needs some time to heal.
animal movies. doesn’t matter if they’re happy and the animals are okay, I see an animal on the tv screen and tear right up.
also anytime I hear about how succesful someone is, and all the barriers theyve had to overcome, I cry. doesnt matter if its on oprah or the back of a book or im eavesdropping. tears.
and waitressing for 12 hours. if that don’t pull a tear from you, nothing will.
also, thinking about leaving my kitty cat.
@fiveinchheels: you are very sweet, thank you. It has been very hard but I’m making the most of the time we have with each other and though we had a shitty relationship until just before we found out about the cancer, death makes you prioritize and put aside all the bullshit and just get right down to what is really important, which is making the best memories you can. I am coming to terms with it just as she is, but it makes it bearable when people care enough to understand.
As for the breakup, well, looming death sorta trumps that anyday.
The smell of the Home For The Holidays Yankee candle when I’m not home for the holidays.
my temper
being angry
thinking my grandparents are gonna die sumday
broken electronics tat i love

the song over the rainbow (the hawaiian version idk who sings it)
