It's a karma thing isn't it?

There is actually this thing they have in Japan where you keep a special diary and write a wish in the back and then you set about completing 100 good deeds to help other people and the idea is you log each one and once you get to 100, the universe rewards you with your wish!

Do bad deeds get subtracted? If so I can see where I might be going wrong.

:$ Did you not have to play that? Half the class has to make like flat-topped cones into domes, and the other half has to turn them back to be dishes. The team with the most cones their way up, wins.

Nope. Don't recall anything of the sort.

A girl once thought I was sweet for picking up an old drunk guy who had fallen on the bus.

But it was really your dad?

My friend and I both stood up to let an old woman sit down on the Tube on Saturday. My friend somewhat undid his deed though by shoving me back into my chair so that he got to take credit. :P

Haha!

My dad's good deed for the day. Just rescuing a very unhappy looking bee from my room.

The driver.

I'm just one hell of a guy. :D

In that case, you need to complete a lot more.

I like to rescue reduced priced flowers. They are still good for at least 5 days and it's shame for something so pretty to be thrown in the bin. I put mine in the compost bin.

I'm like you Scatz. I walk looking down to avoid stepping on animals. Terrible habit and I bump into people and lampposts but I always pick up worms and slugs and snails and move them to grass, if I see them. If it looks a bit lifeless, I'll even prod it a bit before giving up hope. My friends find it hilarious. I find it my version of 'normal'.

And yet I eat meat. I hate myself for it but at least I look down when I eat it.

We've all had a dry patch like that.

Laughing out loud

I like to rescue animals too, but I always wonder if I'm recreating that scene from The Simpsons where one of them rescues some star fish, for them only to be eaten by a shark.

I was doormat in college - all the pretty girls asked me to help them out with computer work (glasses = computer nerd obviously), and moron that I am did it, in the hope that one of them would sleep with me. It all ended when I just couldn't do it anymore and told this one lass that she SHOULD DO HER OWN BLOODY WORK. My college life was almost totally devoid of female contact after that. I got a decent grade at the end of it, though.

Maybe it's our mutual promiscuity, or at least that suggested by our pseudonyms, Slag. :P
