Late night bullshit: Nicest thing you did for someone today.
 

We spend a lot of time on this forum being big jerks for largely no reason.

This is a (perhaps futile) attempt to change that for a single thread.

Do something nice for somebody today, then come here to brag about it.

It is socially unacceptable, perhaps, to brag about something nice you've done. Nobody wants to come across as holier-than-thou.

But take this thread in the manner its intended: to genuinely celebrate altruism.

ONE RULE: Doing something nice for your spouse/girlfriend/family member/best friends doesn't count.

Or it can. It just won't count as much.

I know that in the stone cold demeanors most of you exhibit on this board, there are some big, beating hearts that appreciate the brighter sides of humanity, rather than just ruminating in the sterile coldness of the Internet's disregard for decency.

Do the thread a favor and try to rep the really good ones, or at least the ones that mean the most to you.

I'll start: I was walking out of Dillon's today, and an elderly lady asked me to load her shopping cart into her car for her. Rather than be offended that I was essentially being drafted to do a chore for somebody I didn't know, I loaded the cart -- all six or seven bags. A couple of them were genuinely heavy, and she did have some laundry detergent, so.

Take it from here, folks.

I responded to this stupid thread.

There. This.

That's the spirit. Close enough, anyways.

Pretty much everything that happened on the final day of Groundhog Day.

LMAO

There, you'll enjoy this story then. I can't do anything to top that.

I helped a disoriented family back into their overturned SUV.

I helped a turtle whose demise was imminent the rest of the way across the road.

moved from the middle lane to the right lane so the horde of cars could get around a left lane hog...

I told a child who said he couldn't, he could. Then I watched him do it.
I opened a door for an elderly lady then carried her books up a flight of stairs.
I walked away from a fight from a professor, which I would have won, because I respect the roll of a student.
I said nice things to all who came across my path the serious goal of making their day better.
I told my newborn grand daughter (saturday) that I loved her in her first ever phone call and then I called my new born grandson (2 weeks today) all about it in our second phone call. I doubt either will remember, but I will cherish.
I sent my daughter a mysterious money order because she refused the help.
I spent an hour on the phone with a friend who's a good person because that' what a guy should do.


I may have not made a dent on the crap that is the world, but I scuffed it up a bit.

My best friend and I are making a cross country drive from Providence, Rhode Island all the way to Aspen, Colorado just to return a briefcase to some redhead who left it in the airport.

Side note: We just suckered some asshole into picking up our tab at some diner out in the middle of nowhere. We hightailed it out of there before he knew what what was going on.

Everyday I help single mothers get their start in life.

I sprayed some febreeze after I took a dump.

I paid for the TV and free booze for two army chaps on my flight. The flying waiter told me that they didn't have any drinks, though.

I almost did kill the stinky ****er sitting next to me in the middle seat. If you want to look out the window the WHOLE ****ING PLANE RIDE, I SUGGEST THAT YOU ACTUALLY GET A WINDOW SEAT.

I favorited someones tweet that wasn't really funny or interesting
