Sad Endings make me think more than happy ones. But I like my stories to be realistic in the way that its told. If something just appears tragic and a deus ex machina happens, like in Lord of the Flies, then I'll be extremely annoyed. However, like Dappled said, some "sad endings" could also be happy, like in A Prayer for Owen Meany. It really all depends on the way the story is told. Although usually I won't be happy, I'll probably be very annoyed, with an ending that just wraps up the whole story in a nice little bow.
Disgusted by happy endings?
