Made Myself Sad | comment |
A character is speaking, usually referencing a tragedy or other unfortunate event, and maybe even joking about it. After finishing his story, the character takes a Beat, then adds a comment that they just depressed themselves by bringing up the tragedy. Alternately, just their facial expressions and body language say it. Sometimes a Harsher in Hindsight moment is enough to start one of these. Also a possible self-inflicted Misery Trigger. Compare Explain, Explain... Oh, Crap!, where a character attempting to reassure others that nothing is wrong realizes mid-sentence that something is very wrong. In Black Comedy, this can lead to a Driven to Suicide moment that is Played for Laughs. May also lead to Cry Laughing. |

A vignette on Lamb Chop's Play-Along has Hush Puppy (the show's Ditz, or maybe their Cloudcuckoolander) opening a door in a prop wall in an obvious Shout-Out to Laugh In and reciting a limerick about a lady who was so skinny "that when she essayed, to drink lemonade, she slipped through the straw and fell in." He then laughs his head off at the poem....until he realizes that the character probably drowned, and he reflects: "Hey, that's not funny; that's tragic!" | |

RWBY: Nora tries to cheer Jaune up and convince him that losing in the tournament they're competing in won't be so bad, only to start rambling on how if they do lose, they'll become social pariahs, get mocked by other students, she and Ren will be cast out with nowhere to go due to being orphans, and they'll be branded for life as "Team Lose-iper". All the color drains from her character model before she gives a weak laugh/sob, leading to a Head Desk. In Volume Five, Ruby tries to cheer on Oscar, asserting that he'll be "combat ready in no time!" Her cheerful demeanor wilts away as soon as she realizes what she said; it's her dear friend Penny's catchphrase, and Penny was murdered months ago. A particularly high-stakes version occurs during the finale of Volume 6. Ruby tries to invoke her Silver Eyes on a Leviathan Grimm, which requires the desire to protect and preserve, by focusing on thoughts of her friends and loved ones. Unfortunately, this reminds her again of the Fall of Beacon and the deaths of Penny and Pyrrha, which does not help. |

In King of the Hill, Dale, Bill, Boomhauer and Kahn get into the idea of the last meal given to prisoners on Death Row. They construct a giant feast of all their favorite foods, and then before they dig in, Dale tells them to savor every bite, "because the next thing you taste will be the bitter sting of death". They all laugh for a few seconds, then stop when the realization hits and look at the food, having now completely lost their appetites. | |

In the Old World Blues DLC of Fallout: New Vegas, when you give Dr. Borous the dishbowl of his dog Gabe, he gleefully reminisces about how the various horrible experiments he committed on him (turned him into a cyborg and pumping him full of combat drugs) and how despite everything, Gabe was also his only true friend who would always cheer him up no matter what. At that point, Borous is overcome with a deep sadness that he is incapable of understanding and the player is given the chance to either convince him that he truly loved Gabe or to simply see him as a test subject. You can also do this with Philippe, a chef who's about to cook a person for the White Glove Society. With a high enough Medicine skill you can psychoanalyze him, at which point he goes on a rant about his shitty childhood. Eventually this causes him to run off and cry, leaving you in charge of the kitchen. |

In Words of Radiance Shallan had previously been forced to put on a not particularly convincing foreign princess act by her conwoman mentor, Tyn, to a guard. When she encounters that guard again, this time guarding people she needs to reach and give her real identity to and he brings up the "Horneater princess" incident, she furiously thinks that she's going to strangle Tyn. Then she feels sad, having momentarily forgotten that she really did kill Tyn a few days earlier. | |

In The Muppet Christmas Carol, Scrooge is visited by the Marley brothers, who are played by Statler and Waldorf. They openly admit that, in life, they were selfish and heartless bankers, and they even reminisce about evicting an entire orphanage in the middle of winter. This makes them break out into their trademark laugh, which almost immediately degenerates into a shudder, and they move on to warn Scrooge to repent from the mistakes they made. | |

Hachiken, somewhat incredulously, points to his academic schedule and the number of extra-curriculars he is involved in, and states that there is no way he would have time for a sexual relationship. Then he muses that "It's true, but it still makes me a little sad..." | |

Sayonara, Zetsubou-Sensei: Basically the punchline of 90% of what Nozomu Itoshiki says. There's also an instance played more seriously. Nozomu is talking about it being easier to get through life if you ignore unpleasant things. One of his students, who is married makes a comment about ignoring her husband cheating on and mooching off of her and generally treating her like dirt. Nozomu pauses and says that he's sorry for saying that. This kind of thing happens occasionally, when his melodramatic complaining runs into actual problems. | |

Towards the end of Toy Story, Woody while trying to escape from Sid's room from a crate that Sid has trapped him in, tries asking for a despondent Buzz's help. When Buzz doesn't even try to move, despairing over the revelation that Woody wasn't joking the whole time and that he really is a toy, and not a real Space Ranger, Woody proceeds to lift his spirits by telling how great he is as a Buzz Lightyear action figure and how he does a great job making Andy happy and how toys envy him. Mid-speech, Woody proceeds to slip into despair himself, reminding himself how he can't compete with Buzz and how he got them into the mess, and gives up trying to escape, telling Buzz to try to escape on his own and leave him. Buzz however, with spirits lifted, decides to save his buddy. | |

Futurama: The Trope Namer would be the episode "The Sting", in which Professor Farnsworth has one of these moments when he jokes about Fry being dead. In "I Second That Emotion", Bender does this when he insults Leela while affected by a chip causing him to feel her emotions: Hedonism-bot has a party that is basically an orgy, except then almost everyone there gets blown up. In "T: The Terrestrial" Bender, after leaving Fry behind on a hostile planet and lying very successfully to cover for his absence, chuckles malevolently to himself before adding a pained ".....oh." |

Episode three of Game of Thrones has the king reminiscing about first kills. His own was during the rebellion that put him on the throne, a young Tarly noble who came at him with a sword and was defeated by Robert's hammer to the chest. At first Robert is bragging about how strong he was in his youth, but then he muses that the Tarlys switched sides to his cause shortly after, making the lad's sacrifice pointless. Another episode has Viserys telling a handmaiden the history of his family's fall from grace and the last of the dragons...while they sit naked in a tub of hot, steaming water. |

Say enough leftist things in Disco Elysium and you'll gain the Mazovian Socio-Economics thought, which allows you to identify as 'the last Communist' and set about restoring the Commune of Revachol nearly half a century after it was crushed by the coalition. Actually completing the thought, however, just leaves you in a funk at how impossible the task you've set yourself truly is. | |

One Piece Film: Z: There is one point where Chopper is invited to take a bath with resident bombshell Robin (which she's fine with because of his childlike innocence). Naturally, Brook, being the pervert he is, tries to get in on it by pointing at himself while screaming about how creepy and disgusting his skeletal body is. Moments later, he's hunched over in the corner, depressed. His friends are quick to point out the problem with this. | |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: When Thorax asks what happens when a dragon loses a competition, Ember proudly boasts that the loser feels so humiliated that they feel like crawling under a rock... which makes her deflate when she realizes right after that she's been unintentionally isolating her own subjects all this time. It also serves as an Armor-Piercing Response, with the twist that she accidentally applied it to herself. | |

Homestar Runner: In the Strong Bad Email "crying", Strong Bad makes up the ridiculously pathetic character of Lil' Brudder (a one-legged dog whose catch phrase is "I can make it on my own!") just to bring Homestar to tears. It works a bit too well, as Strong Bad almost starts to tear up himself at the end of the cartoon. | |

In an early Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode, Buffy and Xander try to cheer up Willow (who has just realized her on-line boyfriend was a demon) by mentioning their own hapless experiences in the romance department: Xander's fling with a giant praying mantis that tried to eat his head, and Buffy's discovery that Angel is a vampire. They laugh together, and then a beat later, sink into quiet depression. | |

In Torque (Jak and Daxter), when Keira thinks what could have been after her first race, how Jak would have loved to have raced just for the fun of it and she would be a friendly rival, it makes her feel sad as it made the day that she at least qualified not feel like a win. | |

Amphibia: In "A Day at the Aquarium", the Plantars are saddened by the prospect of having to say goodbye to Anne soon, and hope to cheer themselves by spending their last day in Newtopia at the local aquarium. Unfortunately, everything Anne and the Plantars see there somehow reminds them of their past adventures together and just makes them sadder. | |
