I'll take that bet.

Y'all cry an awful lot.

I've started to think there's something wrong with me for just smiling a lot about the Cubs winning a World Series instead of crying all the time.

To each their own. Not surprising that those of us most prone to feeling the DOOM and rage are also the ones most incapable of controlling our emotions when they actually do win it all. Don't care how you celebrate, point is we're celebrating together.

I was being earnest, so no judgment from me. I think I had always assumed it would be more emotional, but it's really just felt like, "That was a blast, let's do it again sometime!"

This is me.  To be honest, I would've expected to have wept tears of joy by now, but it hasn't happened.  The closest I came was during Game 6 of the NLCS, after they recorded the first out of he 9th against the Dodgers.  I was siting next to my dad and felt my eyes beginning to well up, but the waterworks subsided as quickly as they had arrived.  Since then, I haven't had that moment and am simply wondering if there's something wrong with me, other than the fact that I'm still simply too stunned or have visualized this for so long that my extreme emotions have been stunted.  I think I'm still more relieved than anything.  Having said that, I have gotten goosebumps several times in seeing and hearing the highlights the last few days but no waterworks.  It's either going to explode out of the blue some day or it simply won't happen and I'll mask my insecurity by continuing to mock you homos.
Just a sloppy, undisciplined team.  Garbage.

Something is wrong with me too, then. No tears here. I think any way in which you express happiness, or relief, is fine.

Days since I've cried: 3.

How many days since you've cried on a toilet?

Tears have welled up in my eyes, but not streaming down my face and there has been no sobbing.

Honestly, making me cry at things I see on television isn't hard. There's multiple times I've cried at both the Simpsons and Futurama for chrissakes.

I still think the end of the Futurama episode with the dog that gets stuck in 2000 while Fry goes to the future is the single saddest couple minutes I've ever experienced. It took me an hour to quit crying the first time I watched that.

This is fair. I also cried after Brokeback Mountain, and Where the Wild Things Are, among others.

If the Democrats fail to win the mid-terms, I am seriously thinking about revoking my US citizenship. I never thought I would want to disassociate with my country of birth.

I am not happy with the results as well, but this is a matter of personal choice.  Good luck to you.

Well, it does need more Dane Cook, but Kevin Costner is very watchable.  I positive this film.
