What do you do?
 
Hello everyone. Are you the kind of person that helps others, or are you someone who just stands back and doesn't do anything?

This could be a complex question, as sometimes it would depend on situation. Or if you are able to help that person. But some examples could be if you see an elderly woman in the street needing assistance, would you help her or would you leave it for someone else. Or if you are driving and see someone needing help with their car, do you stop?

I don't quite know where I am going with this topic, but I wanted to hear opinions of people (generalization) if they like to be helpful or not?

Generally, I will stand up for the little guy that everyone is picking on. I also like to help those in need. However, if a situation is none of my business or way out of my control, I won't play the hero. This usually ends up bad if you don't know all the circumstances of the situation and you act hastely.

Ermmm, if i liked the person i would attempt to help. If i didn't i wouldn't. If i was in a hurry and i saw somebody i dint know needing my help i wouldn't bother. I may trip a person up though if they were running away after doing something nasty...

Ur kind sicken me. I have never got it, your all like;

"Well...i hate him/her, but if i saw them dying i would help!!"

Hello, like...O-M-G...WHY!? I would let my enemies die...

(By the by, the u sickening me part was me being melodramatic.)

I would help anybody that needed it. i stick up for the little guy. I feel sorry for the people that need to bully though, its wrong. Playing hero is fun, its always good to break up violent conversations where someones going to leave unhappy. *cough* Sounds quite like oddchat sometimes.

I don't like sticking up for anyone...Because where ever you are in life, some one is going to 'give you trouble'....and if you run into every negative scenario and protect the underdog, soon they'll put themselves in potentially negative/bad/dire situations for the sheer enjoyment of having you defend them, time and time again.

I merely feed off of violence. I love it when somebody annoying gets whats coming to them...

Majic 08-25-2002 01:42 AM

When annoying people (as in smaller kids, etc...) get hurt for doing something stupid, I feel sorry. Some annoying or other immature people don't know what the're doing.

If its a bully, or *giggles at phrase* big bad bully gets hurt, I still usualy feel sorry. Its deserveed, but the're still expiriencing the same pain as an annoying 5 year old.
