    I have an unfortunate tendency to find other people crying funny...I'm a terrible person.

I guess so. Geez. I thought I was an asshole. I cant touch this. Can't say I cry too often, but on the off chance that I did, I think being laughed at might be enough to make me want to kill someone. Straight up heartless!

Hey, I'm not saying I burst out in laughter or anything. I know it's inappropriate and I supress the reaction. Also, guys crying I generally find more scary.

I have also laughed:

- when I found out my grandparents died

- when a boyfriend told me his (still-married-to-his-mother) father was gay

Generally I think part of it is I tend to think, for a few seconds, that really bad news is just a joke.
