This is inspired by IamScooby feeling bad for this guy..

So there's stuff that floats around in the world that people think is hilarious. Some of it makes me feel really bad. The following picture for example. This girl passed out maybe 10 years ago, and her jerk friend posted it on the internet. I've seen this floating around for years, and I always think about this girl having one stupid moment out there forever and ever and it makes me sad.
(I'm perfectly aware that she may, in fact, be an idiot. This may not have been an isolated incident. But what if. What if this was the dumbest thing she ever did, and now it will not go away.)
I always feel bad for the makers of iconically bad movies, nobody ever sets out to make The Room, or Final Sacrifice, or Werewolf, or Troll 2. I know that a lot of the time they're crazy or naive, but unless they've had a total break with reality (Troll 2 guy) it still must sting.
Tommy Wisseau makes me even sadder. It's one thing when the creator/cast gains perspective on their flop and can laugh about it years later, another when the guy clearly doesn't get why it flopped and desperately tries to pretend it was a joke all along. I know he's made money off of it, but still... that kind of relationship with your art can't make you feel good inside.
I'm in.
Yes. I haven't seen it yet, and I want to see it, but I feel bad for wanting to see it because I have the same feeling about him.
Tommy Wiseau is completely into the vibe, he has prepared things he says at every interview about the movie, and the only thing I really feel icky about is that he might be completely aware but just putting on an "I GET IT TOO!" act, while at night he cries by himself. The Troll 2 director, though... like pissedoff said, is not even on this earth. He's not existing in reality so he has no idea what people are even saying about him. Also, he's a dickhead.

This one gets me every time. The parents, who thought the kid would enjoy the fun of breaking a pinata...the kid, who is forced to attack his favorite superhero with a stick and feels so awful about it that he hugs a pinata...
This might be the most heartbreaking thing floating around the internet...ever.
We'll just take the fact that this was too long and that you didn't read it...as read.
I think about Bradley Manning several times a week. That shit depresses me to no end.
I feel much more sorry for the girl who played Lisa in The Room because she will forever be known as the chick who filmed 18 sex scenes for one of the worst films ever made.

I feel an insufficient amount of bad for Tootsie.

Hey, check me out. I'm a ghost.
All of your moms.
He's so awful it seems like it has to be a hoax, but the viewcount is so tiny. Whoever shot it is pretty rad, though.
I like the way he picks up the phone. It's the little things.
