These 18 ‘acts of kindness’ are as funny as they are irritating
We’ve been very entertained by the responses to u/GraharG‘s question on Reddit’s r/CasualUK form, which was –
“Whenever I see a car with a ticket I chuck it in the bin so the driver doesn’t have to pay. What act of kindness do you do for strangers?”
The replies were as funny as they were supremely unhelpful and – sometimes – bordering on evil. Wait until you read the cat one.

I wait until my neighbours hang their washing out before lighting the BBQ so the clothes block the smoke from spreading into their house.

Just before I go through the train ticket barrier I like to suddenly stop and then look up at the departures board so that the people in a rush behind can take a moment to relax and enjoy the moment.
