That’s just called repression or dissociative amnesia

Somebody didn't get the point of the movie

Someone who hasn't seen the manic phase of bipolar.

Because the night

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 hours ago

Because happiness can only exist when outlined by sadness. You only know times are good if you have bad times to compare to.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 8 hours ago

Because it would make Bob Vance of Vance Refrigeration very unhappy.

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

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 hours ago

That'd just put Sadness in jail to be released at a later date

[–] [email protected] 21 points 13 hours ago (2 children)

Killing sadness just leaves us utterly empty.

One of these days I shall visit the grave of my misery

[–] [email protected] 13 points 12 hours ago

Wait, that make sense, depression is the lack of feeling, everyone dead, at least in my experience

[–] [email protected] 5 points 14 hours ago

Unleash you bing bong feels

[–] [email protected] 12 points 17 hours ago

Tbh sadness is normal but they have to throw depression in an hell if she appear

[–] [email protected] 108 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

The point of the movie is that suppressing sadness is a bad thing

[–] [email protected] 17 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

It's supression if it's dead?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 11 hours ago

No, but the act of killing it is.

The kid would become a psychopath that never gets sad at anything and lacks empathy

It would be a pretty fantastic breakdown tbh.

[–] [email protected] 50 points 21 hours ago

turn on the news.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 22 hours ago (3 children)

You can never know happiness, without knowing sadness.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 hours ago

Literally the beginning of the movie shows that Joy was there alone before Sadness showed up.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 hours ago

I'm sure they all meet her, they work together.

[–] [email protected] 43 points 21 hours ago (3 children)

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.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 13 hours ago

It's not about knowing. It's about appreciating.

What do we call this, an Appeal to Balance fallacy?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 hours ago

False Balance or Appeal to People, which one are you referring to?

[–] [email protected] 37 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

Most the ignorant people I know are the most angry, miserable people I've ever met, so idk maybe that's bullshit too

[–] [email protected] 1 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 6 points 12 hours ago

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.

[–] [email protected] 45 points 22 hours ago (2 children)

They literally have a 'cease to exist' pit.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 hours ago

And yet I will never forget bing bong.

[–] [email protected] 29 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

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.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 21 hours ago

Break her kneecaps.
