Little Things That Make You Feel Sad
 

For me, it's seeing posters of pets missing, seeing a stranger cry by themselves, dead birds and no milk left in the fridge.

fighting with my girlfriend makes me sad. Other than that I get sad when I see people who seem lonely.

Midgets.

"Kesha concert tonight!!!!!!!" statuses on Facebook

Old people at crosswalks.

The Weekly X-Factor Mass Status Update :/

Living in a different country to my gf :(

A cat trying to use the internet.

Oh God, the Facebook Factor Feed. I know it well. I have seen the show once this year I think because my sister has put it on when I've been there. Maybe twice. I feel I know it much better than that and always do, even in years where I haven't watched it once.

Where does your girlfriend live?

My job.

Me too.

This.

Also seeing an old person sat alone at a restaurant. :(

Sheffield, so it aint too bad. I can get fairly cheap flights with ryanair, but due to the fact that she's having to work 7 days a week and I'm in my final year, it means I get to see her once every two months or so. :/

Ah i see. Thats no good. Where in Ireland are you?

A friend of mine has a girlfriend in Belfast and they see each other all the time...but I have no idea how. It really does confuse me. I would have thought that once every month or two would be more realistic.

When I cross someone on a sidewalk and they make it a point to pretend they don't see me - staring at the ground or off in the distance.

Yeah fuck you too.

Nice old people

Disabled kids

My life

Old people eating by themselves.

Lol, really?

Stay put brother. Ignoring people on the street is a way of life out here.

Seeing some of the beautiful wildlife in my area lying in bits by the side of the road. Badgers, Foxes, Pheasants, Rabbits, Squirrels, even Deer.
And every year their f*cking cars get bigger :rolleyes:

People who lack empathy
Homelessness
Lack of purpose

I have another thing that makes me sad: unnecessary spoilers.

This.

Seven Harry Potter Books: $180. Movie tickets: $20. Not understanding anyone’s excitement about the new Harry Potter because your parents never allowed books about “witchcraft”… priceless.

Most people who see the movie read the books.

In a related vein, it makes me sad when I'm sitting at a crosswalk waiting to cross, and then someone walks up on the other side and presses the button multiple times.

It's like... seriously? Do you think I'm standing here just to enjoy the fumes of passing motorists?

I have only followed the HP series because I went on a school trip to the cinema to see the first one, and I went to the cinema to see the second one. Someone gave the third and fourth one to me on a pirated DVD so I've just kind of followed it the whole way through by coincidence really and with some indifference. I'll get round to watching it, but thus far and it's really annoying because there's not a prayer I'd go to the cinema to watch it.

Dude, if you haven't read the Harry Potter series at this point, I have no empathy for you.

I don't want your empathy and I prefer film to books anyway. "The book is always better than the film" pisses me off so much.
I've read 3 of the HP books (the first three) and seen all of the films up until the latest one and I don't care about the books whatsoever but I'd like to finish off watching a childhood series with no fu**ing spoilers.

Harry Potter films have nostalgia attached to them, I don't give a f**k about the books.

Dublin, half an hour from the airport, so it's all good!

Yeah it's a way of life here too. :( That's just not how it was when I grew up...I suppose I should be used to it by now, but that just means it's worse here than anywhere else I've ever lived. To me it's just common courtesey to acknowledge a person you cross (I'm not talking about masses of people here, just 2 people crossing). Ahh well there's really no point bitching about it. People are assholes.

Definately agree with this. When I pass by someone on the street and our eyes meet I always say hello or nod my head to acknowledge them. Then they just look at me like I'm a freak, and I awkwardly walk away.

My cat trying to tell me something but I can't figure out what he means.
He then gives up and lays down or goes away. Makes me feel really guilty.

Not being able to help people makes me feel sad too, but that's not always a little thing.

Anything in the media regarding child abuse whether physically or mentally upsets me a lot.

A young lad wheelchair bound who went to the same school as my 12 year old died recently but managed to get a dream trip to disneyland. My son spoke to him on many occasions and he was around a lot on my local street doing his thing, so I did find this a downer but also pleased that he got to enjoy a life's dream. Bless.

Which was my original point, if you don't have the HP nostalgia attached to the books I feel super bad for you. I don't know about you but I aged pretty much at the same rate as Harry and it was ****ing awesome.

But nevertheless, I don't judge you or hold it against you that you don't like books more than movies. It's your choice, but it's not my particular preference.

It makes me sad seeing people with a physical appearance that others make fun of, it's not their fault how they look!

:beer: We are becoming few and far between.

We have two wavey smilies but no high-fivey smiley? I am disappoint.

A video. Just 3 minutes, but it's one of the saddest things I've seen lately. A young man is killed in Curitiba (Brazil). Few minutes later his dog arrives at the scene of the crime, sees the dead body and... well... images speak for themselves. The poor animal cries, licks the man's arm and even lifts it up, as if he was trying to take his life back.

^ That made me tear up a bit. :(

For me, I'm sad when I see people eating at restaurants alone. This is especially true when I'm out with a large group of friends having a good time at a sit-down restaurant, and I see someone looking miserable and sitting alone in a booth. It always seems really lonely to me. A lot of times, I'll try to strike up conversation with them, smile at them, or just try to do something to make their day if I can.

Also, one of the saddest things I'd ever seen that I remember is going to a bakery that was going out of business when I was about 12. They had all of these beautiful cakes and pastries and such that I could tell they put painstaking detail into, and they had to sell them for a fraction of what they were worth because they were going out of business. Definitely made me extremely sad.

Now, there's this beautiful girl in one of the english classes, and she always looks so sad. She's not beautiful in the "I wear lots of eyeliner and I look like a porcelain doll" way, but she's got the most BEAUTIFUL eyes I've seen on a person, and I swear that she has one of the prettiest noses on the planet. I was eating lunch the other day, and she was sitting all alone. Next thing you know, a group of jerks come over and start making fun of the way she looks. I wish I could've done something... :(

I plan on informing her on how beautiful she is one day. She always seems so sad and lonely and I just want to make her day a little better because she's bullied daily.

Man, you guys would hate Philly.
