I hadn't cried in 7 years and decided to do some emotional exercises to make myself cry. So I managed to cry about 4 months ago, haven't been able to since even with my grandmothers death. Might start trying again.

How are we defining β€œcry” here? If just one tear trickling from the corner of my eye counts, then it would be a few weeks ago. A movie hit me right in the feels.

If the standard is actual sobbing, then it would be years. I don’t even know.

This morning. I cry pretty regularly though. It's a good way to keep myself in touch with myself.

Two nights ago at the end of Man on the Moon. Andy Kaufman was such a treasure and Jim Carey really worked hard to pay tribute to him. It’s tragic that Andy’s life ended so young. He was really special.

About 3 years ago, I was in hospital, just diagnosed with incurable cancer.

I used to cry a lot and wish I cried more now. Last time I cried, and it was multiple times, was while listening to the narrated visual novel South Scrimshaw. If Pixar movies make you cry then I guarantee you this will. It excels in the same areas combining great world building, fantastical visuals, and a personal connection. However it does so with a completely different art style and completely different vibes, it's essentially an observational nature documentary.

At the last movie probably haha

I cry at the most random things. Most recently I cried during the last episode of Only Connect because a contestant solved a clue in a very clever way

Watch terminator 2 and the end will tear you up

The last time I cried out of emotions was when watching a game that you play by blinking. I don't remember the name, but it was emotional, and I couldn't help crying. Yeah, lame, I know.

The ending to Clerks III. I haven't cried like that in ages!

No tears for a long ass time but I basically had a no-tear cry when I realized I was struggling so hard to keep up with cleaning, cooking and excercise mentally which is literally what nearly all adults do and many do it on autopilot. Made me feel like such a child.

I was smart enough to recognize that was just imposter syndrome by the next day but it hit hard at the time

Don't really remember

Whenever I last rewatched ATLA.

Yesterday, while watching Beastars on Netflix, I shed some tears. Show's surprisingly good, despite its furry leanings.

But the last time I sobbed was during the finale of the Last of Us show. As a dad, that penultimate scene wrecked me emotionally.
