People On Twitter Are Sharing The Dumbest Things They've Ever Cried Over
There’s nothing wrong with a good cry, even when it’s over something totally ridiculous.
On Monday, BuzzFeed UK beauty and lifestyle editor Tolly Shoneye kickstarted a discussion about the mini meltdowns people have over the most minor, seemingly insignificant things.
“I once cried because I couldn’t fit all my things in my bag,” she admitted. “What’s the dumbest thing you’ve cried about?

For what it’s worth, a good cry ― even over something silly like a sad movie or uneven brows ― can be therapeutic.

Scroll down for more “oh, wow, I can’t believe I cried over that” confessions and head to the comments to share your own mini meltdown moments.
