Triumvirate of Emotional Extortion

These the the three greatest (worst) examples of emotional extortion in existence. Regardless of your views about any of them, you will happily hand over money to make the sadness stop. 

But it won't. 

They will haunt you for all time. If you can successfully watch all of them and feel no pang of anguish, no grief at the stark pain of reality, then I challenge that you are broken, wrong, and likely soulless. Potentially, you're just from Nebraska. To numb the the grey waste and unending bleakness to feel anything. 

Behold, The Triumvirate of Emotional Extortion!

First, I give you Linkin Park...somehow using their own brand of music to suck hope out of existence. (totally one of my favorite song now). 

Yup, listening to that on repeat...for a solid hour. 

Next is Sarah McLachlan, whose music can only be made sadder by adding animals. Adding abused, injured, sick animals is beyond the pale.  

This next one is not on You Tube that I can find. It was painful before I had a son. 

Now it is just agonizing.

If you have viewed these videos and feel nothing, then I cannot pray for your soul. 

You don't have one.
