Got like 75% of my wardrobe from Goodwill last week. musta spent almost all my wages but just felt like someone may have needed it more than me. I've only got around 5 dolla left in my wallet now, but whatever.

Shitty thing: the girl at Goodwill said her and boyfriend had been fighting a lot lately and he said some awful things to her yesterday. I think I'm a pretty nice guy, but when you push my buttons I get horny and we fucked. I need to work on that. Feeling guilty today.

Damn it! Now I know why she seemed so frisky leaving the store.

This is a great topic idea, but I can't give a good reply. I'm just drunk, and I want to respond with something, but it's a little difficult to think about how good and/or shitty of a person you are. For example, I don't consciously do bad things, but then again, I don't consciously do good things.

I try to operate on the basis of maintaining myself, and yet I shamefully admit that I don't do a good job in trying to trying to promote a positive atmosphere. I never try to do good things for other people, and it upsets me. I wish I could be a better person, but I am just myself. A regular dick. I do what it takes to keep myself alive at the bare minimum, and it's been getting to me lately.

Still, I'd like to hear what others have to say about this sort of thing. Do you actively try to help out others, or do you just want to help yourself? Let us know.

Thanks, Box.

I'd like to think I try to make a conscious effort to do good things for others. We all know how hard life can be and we all get wrapped up in ourselves, our responsibilities, our jobs, bills, stress. We become moody, tired, jaded. Everyone's got a chip on their shoulder, seemingly. People are often nasty and rude to others for no good reason and I witness it often. It makes me mad.

So I myself try to be different. I try to think about the girl at McDonald's whose probably been bitched out all day, and when my food is taking a bit longer than usual, and she apologizes, I'll say something to the effect of: "it's no big deal, I'm not in a rush." Just kind words like that can make a person feel just a tiny bit better about themselves. That's a good thing and it didn't really take much effort.

Here's a funny one which was a good or shitty thing depending on how you look at it. A few days ago I witness a car run a stop sign. Like literally didn't even attempt to stop. It pissed me off, so I had the bright idea to get next to that person and let them know what they'd done, and that i got their plate number and called the cops (hehe). Well, when I pulled up next to them, the girl was kinda young, and was genuinely shocked and apologetic about running said stop sign. She claims she never saw it. I felt bad at that point for fucking with her and chose not to tell her about the calling the cops part (which I didn't do anyway.) Even though I started out as an antagonistic dick, it ended up being a good thing because now maybe I made her more aware of stop signs in the future, and may be help save hers or someone else's life.

I'm in the same boat as Box. I don't really do good things or shitty things. I just do regular things. Now if we were talking about shitty things from our pasts, I could share some stories. I was a big asshole when I was younger. But these days, I'm mellowed out (I think).

I guess my main reason for replying to this at all is to make known my own interest in the responses of others. Stories about doing shitty things can be pretty entertaining.

I have to think about this some more, but will come back and answer your question. But, I just wanted to say, this thread made me think of Dazed and Confused. One of the things I always liked about that movie is that it tried to show virtually every single character in both a good light and a bad light. You saw something good or sympathetci about ever character, and something not so great. The only exception is MAYBE Mitch Kramer... I'd have to think about it some more, I bet they showed something negative about him too. Anyway, I always liked this about D+C.

I don't do much of anything. I just exist. I spend every day knowing no one likes me and that I have no real reason to exist. I suppose one good thing is I haven't had any big arguments with anyone lately or the cops called on me for a while.

It's a good day so long as you don't find the cops knocking on your door....

So what mundane, average, fair-to-middling things do you guys do? Lol

No one here is a fucking asshole who's done some real piece of shit thing lately? I don't believe that for a second!

Not me. I never hurt nobody. Nothing bad to admit to. Come to think of it, I can't think of anything good I've done lately either. I guess I just kinda exist like Yakko. But an existence with less hate and more pot smoke.

Come to think of it, I can't think of anything good I've done lately either.

I sure as hell can think of a lot of good you've done. You've helped me out a lot over the past couple of years.
