Comedian Aaron Gillies is married, and, all the typical perks of connubial existence aside, he must contend with his beauty blogger wife Lex’s near-constant weeping. She cries so often, he said, that he felt compelled to list the causes of these breakdowns and share them on Twitter.
My wife cries at absolutely anything. I mean, ANYTHING. So i started writing the reasons down because reasons. pic.twitter.com/2ZO4gFEfmH

The feedback was tremendous, with many taking Lex’s side on tears.

@TechnicallyRon @TalontedLex My husband is subjected to similar -he looks over & goes "oh, what YouTube are you tearing up at now?"

@TechnicallyRon @BlueButtonBoho @TalontedLex I think me and your wife are the very same person living parallel. I've cried at all those

@TechnicallyRon @SwiftOnSecurity my wife cries when we watch a cartoon with an extinct animal in it. Ice Age is right out.

Seems like pretty much everyone enjoys a good cry now and then. And why not? It’s not like there’s any great shortage of stuff to sob about.
