Poll question: what is most likely going to get you crying?
We'll leave personal tragedy and politics out of this as i don't think we need to bring people's day down any more.



i haven't cried reading a book, but movies do it the most often, as does music and the broadway versions of Phantom and Jesus Christ Superstar

5. I cry at any show of sentimentality
my friends call me "soft as a grape". I think the night I teared up at an AT&T commercial (when the commercials were good in the 80's) I knew there was no hope for me.

I still think there is no hope for me, even now. Even this post made me cry! :cry:
