I am also an angry crier. It is one of the worst things ever, and makes it difficult for people to take me seriously. When it happens, it makes me mad. Which just makes me cry harder...

I cry when I'm frustrated. Which is frustrating in and of itself.

I'm there, too. ESPECIALLY when I'm tired. Try to have a serious conversation with me past 10pm on a weeknight and there is almost guaranteed waterworks. Funny enough, that's when my husband decides serious conversations need to happen.

Stepmom- There's a scene where the Mom is giving her kids gifts and saying her goodbyes to them. I can't even imagine...

My dad. Mostly, whenever I think about him, especially on fishing trips. He and I used to fish together a lot. The bedroom I grew up in was left unchanged, and whenever I go back to Dilworth to visit my mom I always look at the things or old toys or astronomy books my dad bought me, and that does it for me. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't think about him. When I graduated from vet school, that was one of the best days of my life, but he wasn't there and it made that day very difficult for me. I miss him SO much.

Speaking of dads, Gary Allen's song "Tough Little Boys" never fails to make me cry.

I seriously don't know what y'all are talking about. Tearing up?
But, if I were to get a little . . . watery-eyed, it would be at the end of sports movies. When Gayle Sayers makes the speech about Brian Piccolo. When the Fighting Irish carry Rudey off the field. When the Titans win the championship. When the Hoosiers win the championship. When Highland wins the championship.
Yeah.

Oh yeah. Big time.
And the end of Fellowship of the Ring when Sam won't let Frodo leave without him. And the of Return of the King when Frodo leaves without Sam.

My mom always tells me how great this movie is, but I haven't watched it. Every time it's been on I haven't been in the mood to cry...

Yes. I thought of this after I posted. The book is sad, too.

I had no idea that puddling up wasn't a national phrase! My daddy used it a lot, but he got a LOT of phrases from his mother (Swiss heritage). Maybe that's its etymology? It doesn't seem to have a definition outside honeychileville.

Absolutely. Add when the Jamaican Bobsled team carry the sled to the finish line, and you have the ultimate sports line up!
For those of y'all who have read my retro rush thread, one of the parties that ADPi held was showing Brian's Song! Dozens of boxes of tissues, pretty trash cans, and popcorn & Cokes rounded out the party. My DH thinks it's hysterical that so many of my favorite movies are sports related.

Sorry to hear. Assuming that your dad passed away, I can't even imagine what it would be like to lose a parent. Sorry for your loss.

Call it corny: I bawl my eyes out every time I watch Titanic. One of my favorite movies ever!
I also tear up when I watch videos of military families reuniting. Happy tears, but tears none the less.
