I think about that sometimes. What fucked up sad things do you think about?
Sad things
this, now
goddamnit I was just about to eat
are you sad you didn't try and fuck her back in high school?
she asked me out but I actually did have what I considered a gf at the time and desu I wasn't gonna say yes anyway because I didn't really know her personally. I just happened to look like I was staring at her because I had sunglasses on and was facing in her direction on the bus. Also 9th grade, so I would've said no to anyone just from how awkward I was.
do you think he was chasing them because they were about to come out with the truth
makes sense to me. boyfriend might've found out and pulled some man shit a little too hard, confronted the dad. along with being awful homely, she tended to date white trash guys who pick fights inappropriately.
then why sad?
she meant nothing to you and it seems you hardly even knew her
are you so bereft of sad things in your own life you need to find sadness in the failed lives of others?
Heaven can't into empathy
the world is full of people with just as bad shit happening to them, I was just wondering if OPs 'empathy' was real or borrowed
heaven is an autist wow who would have guessed
It's sort of a weird middle ground between personal sad and movie sad. Just this fucked up thing that happened where I live that crosses my mind sometimes. Probably some things to be learned from it.
what in the world is borrowed empathy supposed to be? figuring out who has the worst life is not exactly a competition. are you seriously gonna start gatekeeping people to emotions based on the amount of personal life experiences they've had?
so its more that you're upset that kind of shit invaded your home without notice than personally bereaved that she is now dead
>borrowed empathy
the empathy you have when you want people to think you have empathy but really don't because you are just trying to place yourself into the story you are telling.
if you can't follow what I am saying you might want to give up and go read a book or something, it could make you a bit more intelligent
ah yes because it's so fucking important to let people know about your empathy on a literal shitposting board
no, you're just being a childish ass for no reason. nice try tho
it's more like seeing a gif of a dog beaten with a shovel or a guy getting stabbed to death at the bottom of a stairway and thinking "that's fucked up. I wish that didn't happen."
You sound like one of those people who hates pride for ancestors because "you didn't do that, they did." and then you refuse to acknowledge there's more than one type of pride a person can feel.
he said doing the same shit
so as a gif and not even irl?
well if that's the level of sad established for the thread
>see belgay post
>he tries to be mean
>ends up sounding like a retard
>sad
same for taking the blame for stuff dead people did to other dead people a hundred years ago?
slave taker
imagine being this starved for attention you keep desperately fishing for replies after people already called you out on your bullshit
imagine being this butthurt
How far back do you feel justified in feeling the slightest bit of good about something you accomplished? If you can feel something positive and a resulting motivation to continue producing an outcome similar to what you have created in the past, you can feel pride in things dead people did.
Most people are capable of displaying an emotion without it being some sort of show for other people. All I said in the OP was a reason I get a little sad sometimes and figured I'd share that reason. Sometimes feeling sad for a bit helps bring a person's mood up later on. Maybe it's something about suppressing dopamine or serotonin for a while so the receptors have time to rest. Whatever it is, that's why I shared my thing. Maybe somebody has had a shitty few weeks and this thing might've pushed them a little bit more to cry a bit and get out whatever the fuck it is that has been bumming them out.
>worshipping apathy to the point of not recognizing some sad shit for what it is and letting it be
If there's something bothering you, you should talk to someone about it. Call the suicide hotline, my dude. Doesn't matter if you wanna actually die or not, just tell them why you're unhappy and they'll do what they can.
