To Hell With Your Happy Endings

Here's the thing everyone who reads a book or watches a movie or TV series always wants a happy ending for their favorite character; but why would we want that when we hardly ever get that in our daily lives? Well I have a theory, and like I said it's a theory and what's a theory? It's an opinion of sorts that someone has that could be backed up by facts and research on the matter so it's easier for others to digest and even make that piece of someone else's opinion and make it theirs too and maybe even make it their own fact, of sorts.
