That article's right about one thing at least. Johnny Cash's Hurt makes me bawl every time. Fucking hell.

You know, I can listen to song fine, but seeing the video breaks my heart. It's his wife... she looks relatively young and healthy, but she died before the video was released, just weeks before Johnny himself. I can't cope with that.

The end to Cool Runnings.

Just happen? Did they leave a note?

Sometime today between me arriving at work and leaving work. And no, they didn't. Cunts.

What was the parking like at the site you were at Gaz? You said it was green paint in the other thread, so that should narrow it down a bit. Can't you see if it was anyone that works there, or was visiting today?

when EVE has shut down and he watches the sunset with her, and later, when she reviews the security camera footage

that Animals of Farthing Wood book where one of Fox's cubs goes off and gets killed

The entire film of A.I.

The Johnny Cash thing doesn't affect me at all, to the point where I don't understand why everyone finds it so sad. Did I leave my soul at the pub last night?

5: Are you no longer able to enter your high score onto tables in video games?

Actually some bloke offered me soul at the bus stop last night. One careless owner, no questions asked, £25.

I bought it.

You are mine now.

Mwah mwah ha!

I've not seen that since it was on telly the first time when I was a kid. I don't know whether it's genuinely any good, but I remember it being genuinely horrific. That bird who impaled all the baby mice on a spiny wee tree was horrible. Shit happens, kids! Went a bit bollocks once they got to their new home though, and they had that tedious fight with the other 'gang' of foxes.

even though you know he's going to be alright, because it's a kids film, the bit whee EVE is distraight because WALL_E has lost his memory after being repaired.

ZOMG Spoiler! Click here to view!

Just because it is animated and a U does not mean it is a kids film. Certificates mean nothing when judging the content. I mean Commando is a bloody 18, and that is about as childish and immature (yet stupid, stupid fun) as it gets.

The first big weepy moment for me and my sister was Atreyu's horse being sucked under the mud and dying in Never Ending Story. *Sniff*

I found this on the internet by accident.

It's sad and beautiful, and reminds me so much of my grandad, and it made me cry, and laugh.

I saw this on the BBC site earlier in the week and it made me think: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/magazine/7540659.stm Being a manly type, it takes a lot to encourage a salty tear from my eye. Shamefully though, the two songs that are most directly associated with my recent wedding never fail to make me misty. Strangley though, one's an Adam Sandler novelty song and the other's an icelandinc ambient piece about puddles. Can you guess.... ZOMG Spoiler! Click here to view!

I can't watch Titanic. I feel so sorry for that poor officer on the deck who has to shoot someone during the panic for the lifeboats, and this then so overwhelmed with guilt that he shoots himself. And then, the very last scene, when you go back to the ship and everyone is assembled back there and are alive again..

Gotta say that I'm feeling the tears over Hurt as well. Other moments are the 'cloud plain' scene in Porco Rosso, where an Italian Great War airman is denied the death and heaven his comrades receive and the entire man overboard to Vaughan William's Theme of Fantasia by Thomas Talis scene in Master & Commander. Actually, Vaughan William's Theme of Fantasia by Thomas Talis gets me crying every time regardless of images put to it. Also - the final pages of Maus.

Gods, loads of things. The bit in Requiem For A Dream with the phonecall from prison? Tears me to pieces every time. The video to 'Hunted By A Freak' by Mogwai, the christmas episode of Urusei Yatsura, the noisy end bit of 'Heaving Salvation In The Paradise Of Rust' by the Axis of Perdition, the fact that I really, really miss Tam, that Animals of Farthing Wood book where one of Fox's cubs goes off and gets killed, 'Weightless and Horizontal' by Jesu... I cry lots. I have to say I'm affected far more by the NIN version of 'Hurt', apart from the crashing chords at the end. Usually this is because I listen to The Downward Spiral al the way through, though.

I'm hoping that it won't cost more than, say, £250 to get it all sorted but I'm not too optimistic.

I prefer NINs version though. Muscially, the song that has always, always reduced me to tears is Pearls Jams "Indifference". I found that song shortly after splitting up with my first real serious girlfriend and really let my heart out to that. Practically any bit of Wall-E when he is with EVE. Especially ZOMG Spoiler! Click here to view! when EVE has shut down and he watches the sunset with her, and later, when she reviews the security camera footage Then again, I find I cry at movies and TV much, much more these days. Tears of joy are good. My wedding day. (And a bit which the wife hasn't seen yet, which will kill her when she sees it on the video.) Watching Ray Bourque lift the Stanley Cup. My favourite ever player, 22 years in the NHL, five time All-Star had never won a championship in his life. He wouldn't even touch the Cup for superstitious reasons. And when Joe Sakic breaks tradition and hands him the Cup, Bourque is crying. So was I. Stayed up till 5am to watch it. The final whistle at this game and this one.

The Johnny Cash thing doesn't affect me at all, to the point where I don't understand why everyone finds it so sad. Did I leave my soul at the pub last night?

It's one of the signs, not being moved by Johnny Cash songs. Try the following also: 1: Breathing on glass - do you leave condensation? 2: Cats and dogs, do they hiss and howl and go weird when you try and approach them? 3: Do automatic doors still work for you? 4: Does a pointy-bearded red man keep cackling in your presence? Warning, may also be Laird Cregar. 5: Are you no longer able to enter your high score onto tables in video games? ALL THESE ARE SIGNS. 800 bananas and various kudos points if you get the reference.

My only consolation is that you were ripped, they're going for £20 in CEX. Make sure the soul you get isn't locked to a provider though. Each provider has a different contract, one you may not have, and whilst Hell is pretty accessible, ironically it is Heaven with the greatest firewall.

Yeah, that was a sanitised version of Foxes Feud, which was a really dark book full of violence, rape and self-sacrifice... They cut a lot of the horror out of the cartoons; particularly the voles and shrews being boiled alive in a swimming pool. The book I refer to is The Fox Cub Bold, if you can find that and The Siege of White Deer Park do read them. They're a bit harsh, for kid's books.

In WALL-E ZOMG Spoiler! Click here to view! even though you know he's going to be alright, because it's a kids film, the bit whee EVE is distraight because WALL_E has lost his memory after being repaired. Saw it again last night, and had a tear running down my face at the end. I actually got choked up at the start because my memory suddenly flooded with the realisation of what was eventually going to happen. Also, watching Schindler's List seems to get the tears streaming down for me.
