Somebody didn't get the point of the movie
Someone who hasn't seen the manic phase of bipolar.
Because the night
Because it would make Bob Vance of Vance Refrigeration very unhappy.
Because happiness can only exist when outlined by sadness. You only know times are good if you have bad times to compare to.
Killing sadness just leaves us utterly empty.
One of these days I shall visit the grave of my misery
Wait, that make sense, depression is the lack of feeling, everyone dead, at least in my experience
I mean...
Maybe anger would have, but he wasn't consistently specifically angry at sadness.
And maybe sadness would have killed herself, but she didn't.
It'd be out of character for any of the others to do it.
Anger murder-suicide of sadness
I think that's called xanax
That'd just put Sadness in jail to be released at a later date
The point of the movie is that suppressing sadness is a bad thing
It's supression if it's dead?
No, but the act of killing it is.
The kid would become a psychopath that never gets sad at anything and lacks empathy
I'd watch it
turn on the news.
It would be a pretty fantastic breakdown tbh.
Tbh sadness is normal but they have to throw depression in an hell if she appear
Depression is all of the other emotions being thrown into jail.
Unleash you bing bong feels
They literally have a 'cease to exist' pit.
And yet I will never forget bing bong.
Yeah, but Joy got out of it in like 5 minutes. If I know sadness, it'll float right out while eating my last cheez-it.
Break her kneecaps.
You can still float without functional kneecaps.
Break her brainstem.
You can never know happiness, without knowing sadness.
Literally the beginning of the movie shows that Joy was there alone before Sadness showed up.
I'm sure they all meet her, they work together.
That just sounds like philosopher dribble peddled to make sad people feel better.
You can very well know happiness without sadness. It's called ignorance and from what I've heard it's bliss.
It's not about knowing. It's about appreciating.
Most the ignorant people I know are the most angry, miserable people I've ever met, so idk maybe that's bullshit too
Are they ignorant or all their "knowledge" just revolve in being racist and an asshole?, a truly ignorant person would be like a toddler no? Without racism and such
Being a toddler is traumatic! They have no knowledge of the world around them and it's frequently terrifying. Why do you think young children cry so much? Ignorance is scary.
What do we call this, an Appeal to Balance fallacy?
False Balance or Appeal to People, which one are you referring to?
