    Having my grandma die in my arms and then having to tell my mum and her siblings what happened

    Edit: just read the question again, you mean 'sad' as in lame not 'sad' as in :waah: sad. :wallbash:

    Holding the hand of a woman as she was left dying of cancer in the corner of a ward with the curtain drawn around her bed. She was an illegal immigrant and all alone in this country. Her dying wish was to have some jam donuts from Greggs. I brought her some. She was too ill to eat them.

    After she died I sat in my car in the parking lot of the hospital. For some reason, a black church choir was singing on Radio 4. I watched the tall ambulance communication aerial on the roof of the hospital and imagined it a spire, with her soul travelling up it, up to heaven.

    I'm an atheist, but sometimes I do so hope that there is a God.

    Nexxo I don't think he meant that kind of sad. I think meant lame sad. I made the same mistake and only just realised

    Skipped all but the first two lectures of a class. After going to the first two I felt extremely out of place and alone because everyone else seemed to know each other and get along and generally know what was going on, even though I understood the material just fine it felt like I was missing something. I became somewhat afraid of returning and with each lecture I missed it became more and more imposing to return.

    what the hell is wrong with you, must say i have never been compelled to play bingo ever, not even in my deepest darkest hour :eyebrow:

    My mind wanders on the sad stories here some things are sad and others are just really sad and then humorous counter part emerges in my mind that i can not tell. :worried:

    Any way i have an amusing story to tell that is sad, so there i am on a dating site getting to know a really nice guy a solider, and after many chats he asks me for my mobile number as he wants to give me a naughty picture, i'm thinking yeah great, so he sends me a pic of himself in lingerie, just his ass, thighs, stockings, panties, skirt, i'm thinking wtf as he sends more and this guy is deadly serious, i ask him "are you a cross dresser" he says "no i just like the feel of the materials and colours" i'm thinking my lingerie collection wont be safe ever and he is in serious denial. He did finally send me a proper naughty pic but it was to late for him :nono: :naughty:

    Oh and by the way i have nothing against cross dressing i just don't find it a sexual turn on.

    It's sadder when you do it in your thirties; you should be old enough to know better by then... :worried:

    It's not the joining that's the problem, it's the staying after you've got the answer you needed :waah:

    For real sadness, it was posted in a thread somewhere once before and I wont do it again as it's too painful to think about.

    However for silly, lame sadness how about...
    - sitting and going through a book entitled '1001 video Games You Must Play Before You Die' to count how many I've actually played (646 if you're interested :lol:). It took about 2 hours.
    - paintiently explaining to the cat that, whilst it's gifts are not unappreciated and she's a very clever little girl, the bedroom at 3.a.m is not a viable place to drop a still fully functioning sparrow.
    - having all of my CD's in not only alphabetical but chronological order as well.
    - sitting and painting a blob of the colour held inside all of my acrylic paints so I can see which is which when they're still sat in the case.

    I'm sure there's tons more but i can;t think of them right now and now that i read htem back i think i have some problems :worried: :D :lol:

    Definitions of sad, I guess.


    Used to work in one. If bingo is the saddest thing in your life, you've led a good life & should be thankful!!!

    Wiping my ass with an old sock or the cardboard inner after a dump cause there's no toilet paper.

    Finding a condom and thinking "hmm, I might have a posh ****".

    I honestly never lived anything sad in my life. Never had a pet that died, never had a death or illness in the family, no broken heart. Nothing.


    The saddest I actually got was when a f*king overpass hit my car and I in the face. Oh and that blood-clot-that-could-have-cost-me-my-arm thing.


    I think that in itself is sad


    It's also scary because even though I'm 26, I'm not ready at all to face the reality of life. I guess it'll just hit me in the face really hard when it happens (like the f*king overpass)
