Sorta similar but not really the same, I'm a huge believer in Karma.

Not that I believe there is some great "Karmatic Force" out there, just that if I'm a good person and don't take things that aren't mine people will do the same. 

Some examples -

One time in college I forgot my bookbag in a class and didnt realize it until like 2 classes later. I went back to the classroom and there was a note on the door saying if you forgot your bookbag call this number  :D

About 4 years ago I decided (wisely) that I was way to pak'd to drive home and didnt need my keys anymore so I threw them across a crowded bar against a back wall(When I got home I realized I had locked my apartment door and had to scale a 3 story balcony to open the back sliding door). The next day I called the bar and someone had turned my keys in at the front desk  :D

It doesn't always work out

Had about $500 worth of fishing gear stolen last night  :frown:

Went fishing along the KS river(by 435 bridge) yesterday afternoon with the dog. Was in a rush to get everything loaded before the cats game and ended up leaving 4 poles and my fishing bag along the side of the road.

Did not realize I had left everything there until I got home and by that time there was only an hr before the cats game. My gear was on the side of a gravel road that I had never seen any cars on before so I figured it would be fine until after the game.

Went to get it after the game and it was all gone  :frown:


but I think I'll keep being a good person.

This thread pretty much disproves any idea of altruism, huh?

Not really. It just proves that some people are terribly selfish, but don't want to be seen as such.

Some girl dropped her wallet outside of target in olathe.  I opened it and saw she had a target card so took it to the sevice desk so they could call her.  Lady asked me to write down my name and number incase, I declined.  There was a good amount of cash in the wallet and credit/debit cards.  Would've been a huge headache to replace all that.
