I had an unstoppable meltdown when my store was out of all but non-applicator tampons. It was really a straw/camel’s back situation, but when an older store stocker saw I was crying, she asked, “What’s wrong?” “THEEE-HEE-HEEEEZ,” I sobbed. And that’s the story of why I don’t go to that Walgreen’s anymore. — Madonna Kilpatrick, Facebook

I was having the worst day ever. One of those days that stabs you in the back, twists, and then kicks you while you’re down. At the very end right before bed, I opened a junk mail letter and it said I was eligible for something because I was in the 45 to 80 age range. I’m 26. I burst into tears and bawled — Chelsea Alana Hall, Facebook

I got way too emotional following my wisdom tooth surgery and when the nurse asked me if I wanted to see the teeth after, I cried and told her that they were my babies and (and now I quote) “the most beautiful things I have ever made!”.

I was sitting in the fairly crowded dining hall at my school with some friends. It is a widely known fact by my friends that I am a huge Pokémon fan (I have a pokeball tattoo on my shoulder.) My best friend Jacob, told me that he found a poem he needed to read me and read it out loud to me in the cafeteria. “Charmanders are red, Squirtles are blue, ….”I’ll stay by your side like Pikachu and Ash, I’ll love you more than a level 80 Rapidash…” By Rapidash, I was crying/balling in the cafeteria saying “Pikachu and Ash, that IS TRUE FRIENDSHIP LOVE.” — Lindsay Ontko, via Facebook

In high school, I really loved cats. I found out that National Cat Day was only a few days away, and I began to cry. Then I started watching the all too famous song where the woman sings “I love cats, every kind of cat”, and I began to sob even harder. Needless to say, I really liked cats. —

I bawled at the end (well most of it, really) of Toy Story 3 because I realized that I only have like 2 toys from my childhood…and the rest are all probably in landfills somewhere and they did nothing to deserve that end, because they made me so happy as a child……I’m 35, and even typing this made me tear up. — Elizabeth Nourse, via Facebook
Unmatching socks

A lonely goose

One time I cried because I saw a goose. Just one goose. He should have been flying in his “V” with his buddies. In my mind, he was lost and lonely, and I cried. —
Pants

One time I couldn’t find a pair of pants. I burst into tears and ran across the room and hid in a closet. —
