I think that's called guilt not generosity.

I once gave someone a dollar and told them that they didn't have to pay me back. It was like stepping into a whole new world of good deeds.

A Christian propagandist was handing out church flyers. I offered to help him hand them out so he gave me half of his and I went and dumped them all in a recycling bin.

Generosity abounded, I spared 400 odd pieces of paper from being torn up, burned, or and hastily stuffed into the pockets of harassed commuters, only to be disgarded later. That evening I watched the sun set in the most beautiful and vivid colours... and I knew I had done good. A small tear rolled out of the corner of my eye and I felt whole.

Uhh, hmmm, One time I punched my friend in the eye and I offered to take him to sick bay. I was generous enough to do that :D

I gave away a small matchbox ambulance that carried a great deal of significance to me. It brought a tear to my eye later when I suddenly felt the waves of regret washing over me.

THREAD CONCLUSION: Generosity only leads to regret.

C'mon guys where's the luv?
Do you want to see me crawl across the floor to you?
Do you want to hear me beg you to take me back?
I'd gladly do it because
I don't want to fade away.

I left all my toys and video games to my cousin in SKorea when I was moving into here.

Did you earn money out of that? Or for free?

I helped build someone a house in Jamaica.

Our church does a missions trip every 2 years and brings a group of people, this year we had enough to make 2 teams for 2 houses, I was on one team and we made a homeless woman a house for her and her son.  By our standards it isn't much, but they absolutely loved it.

Just 2 days ago I helped a family move out of their house, and load all their furniture and stuff into a big U-haul truck.  Was nice, and helped those muscles. 8)

Problably not the most generous thing, but the that's what I thought of when I saw the title.

I had a server in Chicago that I didn't need any more.  I had to pay $50 to have it shipped back to me from Chicago but I didn't have a use for it at home (I have a bunch like it here that just sit in a rack in the basement, occasionally being used for testing)... so I paid them $50 for shipping and gave them jrgp's address.

When I left for basic I gave my brother my car and my family my computer. Then I decided to give my buddy(Who really deserved SOMEONE to be nice to him for once) my Wii with all my games and stuff. In total he got about $800 worth of gaming stuff.

When I was a kid, we would go from house to house collecting various stuff that people didn't need, and then sell them to raise money for charity. Atleast thats what we told people. I think we spent it all on candy, can't really remember.

Well, once I gave a homeless guy, with a face that looked like leather, a $20 USD bill.
I also do free websites for people; they usually seem very great full, especially my web design teacher for doing a bunch of side stuff for her for free.

I had a server in Chicago that I didn't need any more.  I had to pay $50 to have it shipped back to me from Chicago but I didn't have a use for it at home (I have a bunch like it here that just sit in a rack in the basement, occasionally being used for testing)... so I paid them $50 for shipping and gave them jrgp's address.
Again, thanks so much!

It's just the long pizza box sized metal thing. The monitor and keyboard are like 15 years old and I've had them forever. And that still doesn't matter at all since I'm only using it over the network and rarely touch it directly. I'm giving you a 25 point warning for being an absolute jerk. FLAB gave me that out of the kindness in his heart.
