What are feelings? I'm only aware of a constant low level sense of dissatisfaction lol

[–] TinyBreak@aussie.zone 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

especially with ourselves, right?

Abso fucking lutely

Feeling feelings hurts, but in the end it's necessary to grow.

Sometimes we just need a big ugly day-long cry.

Sadly, I’ve inherited the bloated face that lasts two days as a reward for my ugly crying tears.

Worst super power ever.

Over the years, I’ve done all the things.

Reduces somewhat, but I still look like:

Rollie Skin Puppy

Just not as cute.

Sympathy! I too turn into an utter PuffTroll if I cry. Embarrassing.

Commiserations. It’s the absolute worse if you have to work.

I just can’t cry elegantly. Quite annoying, really. πŸ˜‚

Wot? Cry daintily and have a tiny bit of blurred mascara for the movie hero to dab off you?

[–] Llabyrinthine@aussie.zone 2 points 11 months ago

Hahaha, if it was a sport, some people would be the Roger Federer of crying.

Well, I should start a club. Ugly criers of the planet… UNITE!
