Apparently, all except one of my neighbors don't understand the importance of making a path along the curb, for water to drain. Together we did the whole block....and the lane.

Didn't exactly 'go out of my way' to brighten someones day, but just a small act that no one seemed to care enough for/notice, so I thought I would pick up the slack.

I was on the ferry coming back to the lower mainland from Victoria earlier tonight and I had parked next to an elderly gentleman on the parking deck. As soon as we were all parked and settled, this man whipped out his newspaper and began reading..I didn't think much of it. I decided I would nap in my car instead of going upstairs and sit uncomfortably for an hour an a half as I only had a few hours of sleep the night before. However, nature called, so I went upstairs and made a 1 o'clock appointment. As I got back to my car, I noticed his headlights were left turned on. There were people still walking past our cars, and no one had stopped to tell him. I'm guessing the man didn't notice his lights were on as he had his newspaper opened in front of his face and it was blocking his dash. A few more people walked by and didn't say anything, so at this point I rolled down my passenger window (he was parked to my right) and began waving my arms around like a moron trying to get his attention. I did that for about 20 seconds and he finally looked up and saw me. I pointed to the front of his car and he noticed his lights right away. Gave me a smile and the 'thanks' hand wave and all was well.

Nothing too major or significant, but I thought I would save him from draining his battery.

5 pages of good gestures by revsceners, I don't see one guy make a sideshow and post it on youtube, Peter Chao is a fucking tool. You don't glory hog a good deed.

I think this guy did a better job. Seems pretty genuine. I found this so fucking sad.

Don't know if this counts...

However goes to BCIT knows there are two types of parking lots. One that you pay for the stall and it's basically paid for the day, people just come in and park after you leave.

Then there are the ones like NE1 where you have to show the tickets on the front dash.

My whole family left for Hawaii so I had to drive to school everyday from White Rock. I had to watch over the store, so I had to return home everyday, I actually live in Burnaby 10 minutes away from BCIT.

For the whole week I would park at NE1 and when I'm about to leave, I look for people who's about to enter the lot. I would drive up and give them the ticket. Saves them $4.50 each time.

Felt pretty good, didn't want the ticket to go to waste so I would wait a couple of times until someone enter the lot.
