Had to say...Was a bad first impression when I looked around and literally nothing happened. Had to read through the spoilers in the comments to figure out the right order to things.
Innovative concept though.
Very touching ending. I think that the final touch after the ending credits really adds that last bit of heart-wrenching that would leave a pang in anyone with a still-beating heart.
The guy wasn't kidding. That story is ironic...and no, it doesn't taste very sweet.
