HELL YEAH I CRY DURING MOVIES WHAT DO YOU THINK I AM SOME KINDA PSYCHOPATH WHO CAN’T EXHIBIT ANY SORTA EMOTION THINK AGAIN BUCK-O
most recently this happened when i stumbled upon
happy gilmore
on comedy central
and the sandman drained a 30 foot putt to win his dearest grandmother’s house back
stopping that evil shithead shooter mcgavin from donning the infamous green jacket.
i don’t know if i had too much to drink that night
or
if i accidentally ate too much chicken fajitas from chili’s
but i just could not keep it together for the life of me
during that scene
and the tears
quickly filled my entire apartment
in a matter of seconds.
thinking back
i haven’t been that sad since the day
you decided
i wasn’t the partner you wanted to build a future with
all because i’m not textbook manly enough
and accidentally change light bulbs while the lights are still on.
dang, that one stung to hear.
