I'm getting teary eyed watching Guardians of the Galaxy 3.

Got teary eyed yesterday listening to music.

Is there a male version of menopause I'm not aware of?

It's in the name though.

Menopause

...I'll see myself out

I know men go through their own version of PMS somewhat, it may be the flux of your testosterone. Or you may just be changing as a person and find certain things make you feel differently. Maybe it's Maybelline 🤷

I've cried at movies before. And get super emotional with some music (frisson i think it's called)

Past two days have been extra though.

@MeanElevator @bot001 GOTG3 is a pretty masterful tear-jerker, I was a bit surprised how much it got me! Can't comment on the music though.

The music was my youth, loved it all.

I nearly bawled my eyes out for the walrus

@MeanElevator yeah, same, we must be similar age as the writers ;)

I have been told that part of the story was likely based on a comic called We3.
