Drinkers are paying for the opportunity to cry into their beer at a new weeping bar in China. Tissues, menthol drops and onions are provided at the bar in Nanjing for customers who need help with bursting into tears. Bar staff also play sad music and there are dolls available for customers to throw around or beat to vent their anger after a broken relationship. Customers pay €5 an hour, on top of their drinks bill, for the privilege of weeping and wailing, a local newspaper reported. The bleating bar has been a success and is attracting crowds of gloomy drinkers.

It's cheaper to cry at home.

I Don't think it will catch on here.
