What's the saddest thing you ever saw?

Question

I saw a guy on the bus whose arms were really short -- all I could think was, "God, that poor guy can't even touch his weener or wipe his butt!" I was depressed for the whole rest of the day.

Can you think of anything sadder?

Answer 2

I don't know. There have been many sad things in my life and I can't remember which is the saddest. But I remember a few pangs of pain - that was when I let someone down and they remained so sad - and I was so ashamed and disappointed with myself... That was really sad.

or perhaps, when I was a little boy I threw some salt in the hamster's eyes - and then I felt like kicking myself and decided not to do that ever again.

My sister and I were driving to the mall and we saw a seagull on the road just ahead of the van in front of us. We thought it would have the common sense to fly off, but it didn't -- and then we realised it was very small for a seagull and must be a baby (this was around early May, right after the hatching season).

Just as we noticed it was a baby seagull, the van in front surged forward and there was a loud POP and a puff of white feathers appearing from under its left wheel. (In defense of the van's driver, he probably thought it was an adult seagull and wouldn't have been able to tell it was a fledgling.) I started crying right then and there from shock, and to this day I can't look at a seagull or drive past that stretch of road without feeling saddened.

For a action picture, there are 2: vast Fish: whilst the father is death and the vast scene the place the son is racing to get him to the river, and whilst he gets him to the river, all his friends are there to declare see you later. Kills me. That, and the action picture Angus. After Angus' grandfather dies, and that they tutor the shot of Angus walking as much as his Grandfather's chum interior the park, the place the Grandfather and the chum used to play chess each and all of the time. Angus in simple terms walks as much as the board and lays the King down on the board and walks away. there is this great Peter Gabriel music enjoying interior the history as he does it. on the time, it became probably between the sadest issues I had considered in a action picture. If we are speaking approximately television, and genuine-existence: 9/11 not basically did I witness the homes get hit and give way from around the river in NJ (I artwork on the riverfront) yet then as quickly as I have been given domicile, i might desire to't end observing the T.V. coverage. i became glued to the T.V. for like 3 days quickly. My spouse could yell at me and get mad that i became observing it, yet I in simple terms could not end. I in simple terms could not get previous what I had in simple terms considered not various soccer fields away.

I saw a family one time in a store, and for some reason they brought in their dog and they (the people) looked very imbred (I'm being serious!) and the smelly, awful parents kept screaming at these 3 dirtball kids and the oldest started slapping the middle child who started screaming so the parents started BEATING these kids and their dog (I don't know what that poor dog did!) It was so sad. They were so low class I mean they we not spanking their kids but beating them. The dad was hitting the youngest one, who was in a cart, very hard and wouldn't stop and to make matters worse, the kid in the cart was mentally retarded. The mom started kicking the dog and by that time social services showed up. It made me wonder, if people do this in public what do they do at home???

Answer 7

Answer 8

Looking at my beagle Blue being put to sleep. We took him in and gave him four wonderful years. His former owners poured battery acid on him. He ended up dying of cancer. Also seeing my father laying in that ****** coffin and seeing their sick, twisted, warped ****** up ceremony. People talking so happily about their vacations and my aunt saying hide his hand. My father was born with a birth defect. Funny how he could do more with one hand than most people can do with two. The family was embarrassed by it, I was proud of it. I should have slammed that coffin lid down on my aunts head and decapitated the *****.

i once saw a father and a son in vietnam who hadnt seen eachother or spoken to eachother for over 10 years. the son was around 20 and the dad 40. they gave eachother a hug and they both started crying, unfortunately they were both quickly separated, we were in a war zone, later that night the dad and most of the platoon i was in was killed by an ambush by north vietnamese warriors, we couldnt see them and slowly our platoon was being shot down one by one. i was next to the dad when he got shot and i thought that the next second it would be me with the hole in the chest, the dad told me to tell his son that he loved him and that he was sorry for not saying goodbye, he died soon after that. eventually we got free and the son heard the news a few hours later, i have never seen anything so sad as that, the son never got to say sorry, i love you or even goodbye.
