Of All The Stupid...

[camera0bug]

I was playing Mr. Nice Guy yesterday and was delivering a gift television to a friend for her birthday (a used one but a good one).
It sat in the back of my vehicle for easy removal when I would get to her house where her boyfriend and I would unload it.
As I approached a traffic light on an incline on the way there, it decided to roll backwards and crushed my laptop which was in a backpack towards the middle area (I had forgotten it was there).

Prognosis? $800 to repair.
The television survived intact.

Please line up to give me a swift kick in my ass.

Oh NO!

Does this mean no more Mr Nice Guy?

[marchael]

Sorry to hear about your misfortune, especially when doing something nice for others. However, me thinks you are too easily willing to line us up to give you a swift kick in the ass. Ya know, some people have to pay for that kind of thing!

[dazedgonebye]

That's why I'm such a big a$$!

[bobfloyd]

Ouch! That hurts.

[yardbird]

I am so sorry Dan. Hope your laptop is repaired quickly. I like someone's idea about paying for this. Like the Kissing booths in the fairs, maybe you can have a Kicking Booth.

Ouch, $800, sorry about that Dan. You might win some points for your next life for your kindness though.

Please line up to give me a swift kick in my ass.

Don't let it sour you, keep your eye on the long term, and just
remember what Malcolm Forbes once said: "Contrary to the cliché,
genuinely nice guys most often finish first or very near it."

Nice guys actually finish somewhere between third and seventh.

Generally.
