What is the best thing you've ever done?

What's the best the best thing you've done?

If it was helping you, and you knew it.

If it was altruistic, or legitimately helping another without ANY regard for yourself.

Begin.

I once answered a thread that was dying, to spare the original poster shame.

I didn't kill a few people.

I tuuchet mesuf n da AREA en fult lik a prunecess.

I didn't send anyone Candy Crush Saga requests on Facebook.

I didn't piss all over the floor of my friend's bathroom when I was drunk at his house.

I convinced Facebook to go public.

You're all here.

Umbrella had us by the nutsacks. Thanks man.

I don't like to talk about these things because it cheapens the point of doing it if you tell people about it (which is basically bragging about doing a good deed...which is pretty dang lame).

But the most altruistic thing I have ever done?

Probably let my wife win an argument in which she was definitely wrong. She wanted to redo the roof on her parent's home to be nice and I agreed we should help her parents. The cost was $10,000. I told her to pay off her 3 credit cards, first, and then pay for her parent's new roof. It would take 6 months more than her plans but it would end up saving her some stupid amount in interest: $1,800. She was not having it. Her parents were not in a hurry to get a new roof and it worked just fine (they want to move and need to do a few repairs, first, before moving). So it was practical to be a tad more patient but end up saving quite a bit of money. No matter how many ways I tried to explain it to her, she would not budge.

So I gave up the argument. I let her give away $10,000 that she should have used to get herself out of debt. It was very tough...because dat money we could have saved!!!

There is a slight good ending to this story: when she went to buy a car recently, she had to have me cosign for her because her credit was not good enough (said her income to debt ratio was too high or something). I don't treat my wife like I do KMC's forum trolls so I did not say, "I told you so." That was also tough to resist because I'm an arrogant shithead.

The end.

We actually got a massive discount with the roofing company we used because the owner is a relative.

Roofs are ****ing expensive.

That's why I don't bother with them. Just use the sky, nature's roof.

I saved a woman's life. I was in a restaurant and she started chocking so I used the Heimlich Maneuver. It was a very good thing that I had just finished a paramedic class, because the woman was obese, and I had to use a modified version of the Heimlich to save her. That was like 25 years ago.
