The Bad, Stupid, Annoying, or Unsatisfying Ending List
SPOILER ALERT!! Love sucks and then you die. Mostly dramas with depressing and/or {in my opinion anyway} unhappy endings. [Also some open endings that don't leave you with a good feeling.] Usually because one or both of the main couple die at the end of the story. Not to say that all of these are no good! Some of these are great stories, but the have tragic endings, and you might want to avoid them if you're not in the mood for that. Alternate list tiles might include: Endings That Make You Want to Beat the Writer or That's 40 Hours of My Life I'm Not Getting Back.
