Every small act of random kindness has it's impact.
Hey, everyone, I challenge you to do something nice for someone today.
Just do it and move on. It'll feel good.
Use this thread to talk about random acts you've done/have had done for you that just made you feel better about yourself, or maybe the world around you.
:)
I told a girl which "then" was correct to use if that counts?

lmao, not really.
I help jump start someones car on the side of the road the other day
I helped remove someone's dead baby.
I turned to my friend after arguing with him for 5 minutes and said
"Joey you are a very nice person"
He responded with
"I hate you, and then he said your nice thing for the day couldn't be to move out of his seat!"
Which is what we were arguing about.
Ah, one good deed a day keeps my heart intact :D
That's hard to do when I'm generally kind in real life all the time. D:
Also, I've held doors open for strangers. Lots of doors.
Umm... i'm gonna be alone all day. Maybe tomorrow.

Then shouldn't that make it easy?
I found fifty dollars on the beach and gave it back to the person who dropped it. They might have been lying, but I didn't need the money anyway. When I worked at a camp over the Summer I made sure to include the quiet girl in the corner in things (because the other counselors were total dicks). I don't know, if someone needs me to do something for them I'll always do it (I don't like disappointing people because then I feel bad, so...).
And I'll divert the bad attention one of my friends gets from her mom by talking about some stupid thing I did. Sure I get a little beat on for a few minutes, but my friend could use a break. Don't think this counts, though. Things like this is just in the job description of 'friend'.
I don't think I've ever really done anything huge. Or if those things are random acts of kindness.
I've also done lots of random acts of ...evil... so they kind of cancel each other out.
This thread is sappy. Needs more selfishness.

Hey, it counts whether it's friend, stranger, enemy, or non-human being. :)

A random kind comment is also good. :)

This is what I like to hear. :)

Or maybe it's a nice change of pace for once.
Selflessness and kindness are too rare lately.
In all reality though, I try to be nice to my stepsister, because my mom seems to irrationally hate her.
*shrug*

Not getting the joke. :U

Had a long conversation with a kid I know from high school about depression. She said I really helped.
Oh, oh, I remember a good one. I helped my girlfriend's sister move into her new house. :3

You know what's funny?
I saw that before it became widespread. D:

But I was doing it nicely and I don't usually speak up.
In all reality, I'm generally nice irl. I'm only a dick to people who are a dick to me in the first place.
The quote was just a typo, not a reference to anything.
I watched Pay it Forward on late night television.

This.
Though I am a jerk to my friends, but they know I'm joking.
Hmm, today, I don't think I did any
random act of kindness.
[spoiler=Or does this count?]Rob is an OK Guy :)[/spoiler]
I did presentations on preventing youth suicide.
I allowed my friends the glory of standing next to ME! 8)

No, doodle meant that YOU didn't get the joke.

I think Rob's point was to make another reference out of it. And when Doodle didn't understand that, he linked him to where he got his reference from because Doodle obviously didn't get the joke.

But it wasn't a reference joke, it was an inside joke from IRC. .-.

Right. And then Rob made a reference joke in response to it.

lolno
My point was just that it didn't have anything to do with the actual IRC joke.

Okay, well that's true. It didn't have anything to do with the actual IRC joke, besides the fact that his reference was also about removing a dead baby. So, you know, only
slightly similar.
Does dancing with an ugly girl at Winter Formal count?
She was likely the one doing the good deed, brah.

If you saw her, then you'd understand how insulting that is.
The third girl I danced with was doing a favor for me though.
