Dante Posted March 7, 2013 Posted March 7, 2013 Pay the toll for the car behind you. Karma- pay it forward My wife does this from time to time Run bicyclists off the road, so the cars behind you don't have to deal with them. I never thought of it from that perspective. I won't feel so badly next time I do it.
DC Tom Posted March 7, 2013 Posted March 7, 2013 Tom is always thinking of others like that...that's what makes him so "special" Like when I tell Pete he's an idiot. Because, if I didn't, how would he know? And if he doesn't know, how can he improve himself? Kindness is behind everything I do. I am a !@#$ing paragon of !@#$ing kindness.
HopsGuy Posted March 7, 2013 Posted March 7, 2013 In '09 I was in the Atlanta airport for a layover and I got some breakfast. In the restaurant, a soldier (SFC Transportation) returning from Iraq was sitting near me. He was heading back to Ft. Stewart. We chatted about Savannah and how Stewart is one of the nicer posts (I did my Officer Basic in Augusta at Ft. Gordon). I finished my breakfast and on the way out I handed the waitress an extra $100 and told her to take care of his bill, $20 for her and to apply the rest to whomever comes through in uniform. She said, "We do this all the time and I'm only taking $5 for me. Have a great day, sir."
Dibs Posted March 8, 2013 Posted March 8, 2013 You are wont to confuse kindness with lewdness. Like the time you pressed your genitals to the window outside of Curves because you wanted to "do something nice for the fatties." :lol:
Pete Posted March 8, 2013 Posted March 8, 2013 Like when I tell Pete he's an idiot. Because, if I didn't, how would he know? And if he doesn't know, how can he improve himself? Kindness is behind everything I do. I am a !@#$ing paragon of !@#$ing kindness. I prefer to be called an imbecile. "Idiot" is so cliche. I expect more adroit insults form you
Doc Posted March 8, 2013 Posted March 8, 2013 Actually they may not. Couple weeks ago I was grabbing breakfast going through drive through at McDonald's. got to window to pay and they said person in front of us paid. Have a great day. Didn't recognize the car or person. At McDs here in CT, you order from the speaker/mic thingy, then drive up to a window to pay, and then drive to a second window to pick up your food. So paying it forward wouldn't work, unless you gave them a twenty, in which case the cashier wound keep the difference.
