History Tearjerker / InvaderZim

** Dib trying to take the punishment of the Shadow-Hog to save his sister. He's practically crying and feeling genuinely guilty...[[UngratefulBastard and yet Gaz ignores this completely and leaves him to his fate.]] Poor Dib, you need a friend, and that sister of yours needs [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown an absolutely vicious beating]] or [[CruelAndUnusualDeath worse.]]
*** Knowing the series, though...that ain't happening.

* The ending of "Gaz: Taster of Pork". Ok, Dib might have deserved some punishment for using Gaz as a test rat for his spell drive, but not only tricking Dib into believing she was still in danger when she obviously was not but also forcing him to clean up shadow-pig dookie ''with his head'' while he's crying for forgiveness? Not to mention all the horrific (and very graphic) death threats and beatings that Dib took from her while he was trying to help her? No wonder Gaz has a bit of a BaseBreaker status.

** Well, there was also the horrible experiments that Membrane most likely did to her during her quarantine. It makes it worse knowing that her dad is the only person she has/shows any value for...

Ok, Dib might have deserved some punishment for using Gaz as a test rat for his spell drive, but not only [[spoiler:tricking Dib into believing she was still in danger when she obviously was not but also forcing him to clean up demon-pig dookie ''with his head'' while he's crying for forgiveness?

Not cool.

-->'''Miss Bitters''': I had a valentine once.

* ''The Sad, Sad Tale of Chickenfoot'', where Chickenfoot talks about his past life with dib where he was a normal man named Chewie Rodriguez until an accident occurred when the microwave was splashed with water while Chewie was wearing the suit and cooking chicken in a microwave, generating an explosion that "created an unholy fusion of man and chicken", causing him [[GoMadFromTheRevelation go insane]] and [[DespairEventHorizon live all alone]] in an apartment with assorted Chicky Licky toys that he calls his "[[CompanionCube friends]]".

* The hints to Miss Bitters' past, if you think there's any truth to them. Think about it: the creepy HumanoidAbomination that terrifies her students on a daily basis was at some point a normal person with hopes and dreams who got mutated into her current state by a freak accident. Miss Bitters may be a monster, but if her "backstories" are to be believed, can you really blame her?

'''Dib''' ''(bitter)'': Isn't this just great?! While you waste my time, Earth gets one step closer to being taken over! '''That's''' my problem right there! My '''problem''' is that the human race seems to '''want''' to be destroyed!

-->'''Dib''': You don't believe me! You... ''(builds towards rage, then regresses to pleading, and winds up just staring at the ground in defeat)'' I thought you were different.

* Dib and Gaz's.......situation. Their dad is so busy, they only go out to eat together ONCE A YEAR. Which seems sort of funny... until you think about it......

* ''Bad, Bad, Rubber Piggy'' doubles as both NightmareFuel and TearJerker worthy because of what Zim does to poor Dib by crippling him horribly by tossing rubber pigs into Dib's past through a time machine, replacing seemingly random objects in ways that cause Dib to have horrible accidents, progressively crippling Dib to the point that he almost dies.

* "OH, GIR! GIIIIR! THEY'VE TURNED YOU INTO GROUND BEEF! HOW? WHY?????"

* How could one forget the MASSIVE tearjerker in which we see an adorable experiment in an isolated room of a spaceship, who hopes someone will rescue him... only to have ZIM [[KickTheDog nonchalantly leave]]? The poor creature is left to cry softly...

* ''The Sad, Sad Tale of Chickenfoot'', where Chickenfoot talks about his past life with dib where he was a normal man named Chewie Rodriguez until an accident occurred when the microwave was splashed with water while Chewie was wearing the suit and cooking chicken in a microwave, generating an explosion that "created an unholy fusion of man and chicken", causing him [[GoMadFromTheRevelation go insane]] and [[DespairEventHorizon live all alone]] in an apartment with assorted Chicky Licky toys that he calls friends.

* In one episode of ''InvaderZim'', Gaz yells at Dib for going off to fight Zim because she "just wants to go out to eat with dad." Considering the [[ParentalNeglect situation]], this certainly counts.

* ''Bad, Bad, Rubber Piggy'' doubles as both NightmareFuel and Tearjerker worthy because of what Zim does to poor Dib by crippling him horribly via injuring him in the past by tossing random objects into a time machine to the point that the latter almost dies.
