    I think I have something stuck in one of my tear ducts. And I can’t find anything sad enough to push it out with.

    Newsweek magazine quoted one moviegoer as saying he took a different girl to see Titanic every week for two months, and it “worked every time.”

    Erm, the object is to make Marigold emotional, not traumatized.

    As some readers pointed out when today’s reprint first appeared, it is a UNICORN’S HORN which is supposed to have healing powers. A unicorn can rub his or her horn on a wound and the wound will instantly heal. Today’s reprint seems to be confusing this with a phoenix’s tears.

    “Up” is probably quicker, all the sadness is at the beginning.

    How about watching the episode of Futurama with Fry’s dog?

    When Titanic was in the theaters, it was difficult to resist the urge to stick my head into one of the (many, many) theaters playing it and shout “The boat sinks at the end!”.

    I have this isolated-from-context memory of a child actor explaining how he would cry on cue by simply squinching up his eyes and thinking repeatedly “that’s terrible! that’s terrible!”

    Toy Story 3 is a good choice

    The last scene of Wrath of Khan. The last episode of Maison Ikkoku. And as an old band geek, the last scene of the last episode of Hibike Euphonium season 3. And in seeing what day it is today, the entirety of Grave of the Fireflies.

    Several comics about the danger of AI cartoons published today. Any intelligence, artificial or not, would be better than what we get from Varvel, Payne, or Branco!

    Toy Story 3? Yeah, that’d do it.

    You’re not crying, I’m crying!

    The movie lasted longer than it took the ship to sink.
