MOPED ARMY

Some neighbor kid came over with a Coleman bike that he thought needed a new engine. He even brought over the new engine in box. We opened up the drive side and found the chain tensioner had come loose. Also it was out of gas. Fixed those two items and a couple other small things and he was able to ride it around the neighborhood again. Felt good.

I try to do a good thing, but the snark is just too thick with some of the burnouts.

I cut off a guy in traffic and when he got mad I stabbed a knife through the hood of his car and took off.

^This, "please".

You can be a hypocritical dickweed and still do good things. In fact many great people who have done lots to make the world a better place are dickweeds once their life is examined.

Yesterday I helped a guy find some info he needed to repair his hvac. Not a great feat, but some of that stuff is obscure and hard to find especially on the older setups.

Not an admirable trait for sure. And the sky god worship and being an asshole and sticking a few bucks in the plate sucks and does not cleanse someone.

It's a long process to not be a complete dick. I mean even buying chinese manufactured slave labor made goods is a dick move. Under scrutiny we would all fall short of being a good person.

But you shouldn't wait until you reach good person status to try and do good things and posting it would maybe encourage others and it would be a good thing.

IDK, it has to be better than posting about the news or politics and getting everyone pissed with no good at all coming from it.

And I like the cover art for the last two songs... very George Romero esque, but I don't know if I will actually listen to the music. I'm not really a musical person.

That said, as far as kind acts in the real world are concerned, I'm of the opinion that tooting one's horn about how kind one is negates the virtue of those kind acts.

I agree, there are things ive done that only god, the person, and i know about.

Not exactly the same point but... I always remember this story about CS Lewis.

One day, Lewis and a friend were walking down the road and came upon a street person who reached out to them for help. While his friend kept walking, Lewis stopped and proceeded to empty his wallet. When they resumed their journey, his friend asked, "What are you doing giving him your money like that? Don't you know he's just going to go squander all that on ale?" Lewis paused and replied, "That's all I was going to do with it."

I did have a friend in town one day and we went downtown to throw away 20 bucks each killing time to play some slots at the casino downtown. I mean it's just paying for entertainment, no expectations of winning - like a movie costs almost 20 bucks, try some casino shit, whatever.

I wound up giving my 20 to a dude outside cuz I'd already committed to wasting it and I felt better someone who'd be excited to have it, have it, rather than just give it to the casino.

Other kind acts tho for real? I got wasted Tuesday and pissed on my neighbor's vegetable garden.

I once heard a story about a guy with an old car that wasn't used much. The guy went to start it and noticed that there was some trash or something in the car and figured out that someone had been living in the car. So he waited until the next evening and ......Placed some canned food and drinks in there.

I guess I should never of heard that because all legacies of kindness involving oneself should be never spoken or written of. (edited)

I grabbed the end of a steel thing, part of a snow plow. It weighed 7 pounds. Not much but I Help the guy move it a few inches, I felt pretty good about it. haaaaaa

One time I was in a drive-thru and the girl ahead of me apparently “lost” her wrapper out of her window, so I got of my car and put it back in her car for her, it felt pretty good.

KFC, they had partially filled her order and she was waiting on the rest. (edited)

There ARE a lot of good people willing to help, Roosty, especially when their specialty brand comes up in the question.

K-evil(A zed) usually tries to start a fight...…….along with Rock-thrower Bas and Jayson.

Other than those, MOST contribute to moped repairs very kindly.

Yeah, if you ignore those trolls,you are much better off. K-evil actually gets mad when you ignore him...…......LOL!
