A crying peter parker post.
You reach the platform at a sprint just as the train pulls away, gently, your reflection sliding past in its window. The next one is in an hour. The coffee you were carrying is on your shoes. The last slice of carrot cake in the café. You order it. The waiter trips on a rucksack on the way over, and the cake lies face down on the floor. He offers you a flapjack. You are not ready for a flapjack. The show you've watched for four seasons ends on a cliffhanger. The next morning it's cancelled. You will never know who was in the van. You wake up rested, happy, ready. It must be Saturday. It's Monday, it's 6:58, and the alarm hasn't even gone off yet, which is somehow worse. **Why it caught on:** Tobey Maguire cries as Peter Parker in Sam Raimi's Spider-Man (2002), in the scene where Uncle Ben dies, with every muscle in his face, which is how a dropped slice of cake feels and not how anyone admits it feels.
