What random act of kindness can you do in the next 5 mins?

Awesome idea! I’m at home right now, so I’m going to go check on my granny and see if there’s anything I can do for her.

Give my pooch a cuddle and call my sister. :)

I’m going to give you both a Great Answer!!

Thanks for the reminder, @ninjacolin. It’s chilly today and my grandmother is one of those people who’s always cold. She’d be pretty comfortable if we lived in a sauna. I went downstairs and got her a sweater and showed her how to turn up the heat on her electric blanket. And I found out that she did all my laundry that I was going to do and hung it up to dry, how sweet is that?

@Jude aww…
@flutherother clever!

you’re totally winning this, @Haleth

go on a stealth lurve frenzy

I talked to my sister (I’ll be visiting her with my g/f this weekend) and told her that we want to take her out for dinner and drinks. She seemed pleased

I cuddled my pooch (squish) and got a moan, head tilt to the side and a face slurp.

Well, I guess I could give your mom a pity lay in the next 5 minutes…

@MyNewtBoobs You dirty bitch. ~

@Jude That’s dirty whore to you!~

@MyNewtBoobs Do I know you? I’ve heard that before (recently)? ;-)

not throttle my husband who is being rather annoying at the moment!

Gave my cats a generous dose of catnip and spent five minutes listening with (what looked like) complete sympathy to my neighbor complain about cigarette butts on her porch from the renters above her. She said it about five times throughout our conversation.

Lol you guys are hilarious. You lazy lurvers, do something significant. It’ll change your life. Promise.

Click on Thehungersite.com as I do every day. Thanks for reminding me.

I just told someone they didn’t have cancer.

@Rarebear hooray for her/him!

@12Oaks You may want to tell them so that they don’t think Amazon messed up an order and gave it to them on accident and send it back. Or spend tons of money making sure it’s not full of anthrax or something.

I wanted to brighten the day for lots of people. I’m at home, working, so I was stumped. I think the best I can do at the moment is to post here what I just posted on my facebook account:

I love you people. You are wonderful human beings.

@MyNewtBoobs Thank you much. That’s advice I’ll definately take. :-)

I went down and gave my depressed and annoying teenage son a hug when all I really want to do is kick his behind.

Well, this is weird.
I just read this question now and thought that it is a quite nice idea, so GQ for that, and thought about what could i do.
An hour plus ago my doorbell rung (00.30 in the night).
I was shocked because that is really not a time that people do that usually, and i could only think that something bad had happened to somebody (my mum or dad were my main worries).
So i opened to meet a woman, who strangely, i saw before a few times, in the city center.
She started her story about her being homeless and need 10 euro for a night to sleep in a shelter (20 for three nights, she added).
I broke her off mid-sentence, telling her that i knew her story since she stopped me before in the town asking me for money.
I asked her what the f she was thinking to ring my doorbell at that late hour and if she rung all the doors (i live in an apartment building of 9 stories, 6 houses every row).
She said that she didn’t, just mine….., at which point i thought, for a sec, that she was ‘stalking’ me perhaps, but no, it was my door she chose because (obvious reason) she saw lights burning.
Anyway, i gave her some euros (and told her to never do that again (late night doorbell ringing)) and wished her well.
So, it was not a plan, but it turned out to be material for your question.
My plan now is to put the laptop aside and give my girlfriend a nice hug.

In the next five minutes, I will not get naked in front of any other humans.

Truly an act of kindness.

@cprevite I lurve you. That has nothing to do with your state of dress, either. You just make me laugh.

I just paid my mother’s American Express bill. She’s on a fixed budget and uses it to pay for her meds, for the month. My husband and I just decided to start paying it every-other-month. When I can pay it monthly, I’ll be thrilled.

I had a nice talk with my neighbors, and assured one of the girls that the dress on her looks fabulous (without lying). Also firmed up plans for an herb garden for our apartment/house thingy, woo!

@MyNewtBoobs wonderful, on both fronts!

@cak I’m very excited – I love fresh herbs, and I try so hard to grow them.

@MyNewtBoobs I hope it works out for you, to me, fresh is best!

My girlfriend has been wanting me to get offline and go to bed for a little while I can tell because she comes and stres at me and bugs me. I keep ignoring her. Well I saw this question and I I ran into the bedroom just now ripped off her panties performed oral sex until she came then said “I’ll be back” like Arnold Schwarzeneggar, wiped my face off on a teeshirt and got back online. She was pleasantly surprised.
