‪Oh no, my nemesis, tear-jerking parts of the Edward Scissorhands soundtrack! Not unexpectedly in a “best of Danny Elfman” playlist! BACK, YOU CRY MONSTER!‬

@Leucrotta Yeah, the Edward Scissorhands soundtrack is a guaranteed leaky-eyes experience for both Orrery and myself. Because it's good!

@ElectricKeet now that I'm *not* on shift let's listen to the sequence when the Inventor dies and imitate a fountain, maybe it'll be cathartic.

Did I ever tell you the story about me and Sammi watching Ed Wood?

oh nooo, sad Danny Elfman music! 

@ElectricKeet so... I don't remember what we were trying to do. But we're watching TV and I *vaguely* remember the cartoon we wanted to watch ended. So we do some channel surfing and Ed Wood is on, and neither of us have ever seen it.

About 1/3 of the way through, I go "I want to turn this off." "Why? It's a good movie." I say, "because I can see where this is going right now. Lugosi's gonna die, and I'm going to cry like crazy." "C'mon, let's keep watching, you obviously like it."

And sure enough Lugosi died, and I cried for something like 5 minutes non-stop.

oh nooo, sad Danny Elfman music! 

@Leucrotta I can totally see that happening, too!
