Lots more things than you would think possible (if you ever met me) make me cry. Usually sad old men... Loneliness... In that, when I see other people who are lonely. It makes me very sad.
And yeah, PhotoChick, Hallmark commercials make me cry, too!
I cry everytime I see another adult cry -- on tv, in real life, every time. It just gets to me. I'm a big crier -- sad songs (like lost love songs especially). If I happen to flip on of those African children charity infomercials -- I cry. I don't like to see any kind of suffering. ANYTHING on 9/11 -- ball my eyes out. Anything about natural disasters. On a lighter note, Little House on the Prairie -- nearly every episode, lol. Those APSCA commercials on Animal Planet. Cry like a baby. Oh yeah, everytime I look at my ex's facebook.

ER, Reader's Digest, some Hallmark commercials. Anything that makes me think of my family, loneliness..today on my lunch hour I was checking out guinea pigs on myspace. A person had a site dedicated to thier recently deceased little animal- I bawled! Lots of tv shows, like "Intervention", stuff on TLC... ****, just thinking about all this makes me misty. I'm the town crier.
The commercial for Christian Children's Fund or one of those programs for impoverished kids in foreign countries where the white bearded man shows you the poverty stricken faces of some of those kids. I cry every time I see it. (I have a sponsored child in the Philippines.)
We've lost alot of people at work and I've learned I just don't handle sudden death very well, even if I barely know the person. Once I've met them, they are a part of me.
Becoming Jane. I don't ever cry at movies but I haven't cried that hard in quite sometime and definetaly never over a movie. Thankfully no one was around to see that one. Just me, the couch, my tv and the darkness. lol
I saw a commercial recently - it was a bunch of special olympics kids running a race. One kid is out front, he's winning, his family is cheering. He falls down, the other racers run past. Then, a girl stops goes back and helps him up. All the kids go back, they link hands and cross the finish line together! The cheering parents in the audience are teary. I bawled my eyes out.
I'm an easy crier, though.
I remember one time, I was getting ready for work on a training trip (in a hotel), watching Oprah. She was doing reunions, people that hadn't seen their loved ones in years. Oh god, I cried and cried, red face, snotty nose, I thought for sure I would never pull it together in time to go deliver a training session!
Oh, and the season finale of House. Holy sheesh, that was intense, I cried and cried.
Things that make you cry
