What makes you cry?

[dominionxp]

Sitting in a chair getting ready to fire up a bowl and getting in such a hurry I knock it over and spill all my weed on the floor. That'll make me cry every time. Or if I have already smoked a little and knock it over I laugh my ass off.

hahahahaha :thumbsup: that made me laugh, hell yeah. if im high as hell and i drop like a roach of a joint or a blunt, i just crack up.. it doesnt even matter once your high! +rep just for making me smile :stoned:

I was brought up with the mentality that crying is a waste of time and energy. I've only cried a handful of times in my life. Once when i was 10, and once recently when my friend was diagnosed with MS. That was through shock though.

I still get sad - i still feel pain [although since my back trouble my pain threshold is through the roof - i nearly cut my thumb off a few months back and i laughed and didnt bother going to hospital untill i nearly passed out from blood loss.] but i just dont cry.

I dont know weather thats a good thing or not.

I don't boo hoo cry too often, but I do tear up a lot. Oh lets see, I can get all teary eyed at silly things such as Extreme Makeover Home Edition, and countless movies to real things like thinking of something unspeakable happening to my family.

Stinky and Hilder- I feel yall for sure. I cry out of frustration more than real sadness and I don't outright break things, but I am a thrower which winds up in some broken things. I cry and then I throw. It helps, god knows why, but it does.

I do cry easily. I tear up practically two or three times a week just watching the news or during conversations about various things w/ my friends. These are the things that can make me cry if they hit me at the right time:

When I see or hear about violence against babies or children
When I see or hear about violence against domestic animals or other inhumane treatment of them
When I see or hear about extreme pain or violence between domestic partners, at least under several circumstances. I volunteer in this area, so I see a lot of it and am a lot less sensitive about it than I used to be.
When I hear hatred and racism, which are the same thing, and when I see terrible poverty
When I look at my enormous son and think that he was once just a little infant baby boy and now look at him. Where did the time go? (I teared up as I wrote that.)
When I miss my sister or hear of anyone having to suffer through cancer or painful terminal illnesses. I cried last year when Geonagual was going through the loss of his mom. (I teared up as I wrote that.)
When I think about past pets who've had to be put to sleep.
When I think about the fact that my parents are getting older and frail and won't be around forever, particularly my mom.
When I think about two of my now deceased grandparents who I was particularly close to or when I think about the pregnancies I miscarried and wanted so badly to be able to successfully carry to term.
I will cry like a baby this May when my son graduates college. He's already bracing his friends for it.

I'm not constantly sitting around in a weepy puddle about these things, but when something catches me on a deep emotional level, I'll cry about it and not just let the emotion go unexpressed. I need to get mad more of the time than I do. Several of the things up above get me mad, too, like hatred and racism and violence against children/animals/domestic partners, and I need to express it more as anger than I do.

Lest y'all term me a basket case, I'll add that I cry for joy a whole lot, too. And I laugh way more than I cry.

I got teary eyed when I read birdgirls post
I tear up during certain points in movies
I dont really outright cry
I have whimpered in harsh situations to

[birdgirl73]

I just got all teary eyed thinking about how much I adore you, Geo, after I read your post!

[nolanfortwenty]

movies ( the pursuit of happiness for instance ) make me tear up, and when alot of pressure is put on me i usually get teary eyed for some reason

[birdgirl73]

Movies get me, too, Nolan420. I've been putting off "The Pursuit of Happyness" because I know it'll get me.

I had to put my face in my hands and sob briefly after the movie "Atonement," which is out now. It was the idea of war and thwarted love and unreconciled grief.
