Hey, you remember how you cried at the end of Old Yeller when they had to shoot the dog? And when Kevin Costner asks his dad to have a catch at the end of Field of Dreams, how that brings a tear to your eye? Or how around twelve scenes in Schindler's List had you reaching for the Kleenex?
And when Darth Vader dies at the end of Return of the Jedi, remember how you absolutely balled your eyes out? Wait. You didn't cry during a Star Wars movie? That's right... because no one does. Except this guy's wife:

Chapter 56.4: The Mouths of Babes
While I was waiting for the PATH train to embark this morning and braving the cold breeze that came in through the open doors, a mother and a small, crying child walked in. I couldn't see them through the other people standing, but I could hear his blubbering. I could barely make out the words through his crocodile tears. I wasn't sure whether his mother had taken something from him or swatted him -- possibly both. Then some words came through "...broke it." blubber blubber blubber. "You broke my head" ... blubber blubber "...broke my fucking head!"
I chuckled to myself, hoping I'd mis-heard the words. Soon after, the kid stopped crying.
