The whole social experiment thing made me think about my perception of helping people, I'll gladly tell someone if they drop something and I'm glad that other people do the same. I can't say I wouldn't try and help someone who fainted in front of me any way I can regardless of the sight blood, but once there had been a woman who fainted on the bus terminal twelve feet away and I ignored the scene going on behind me, It happened in the city so others called in the EMTs to help. I look back now and wonder why I shrugged off that situation when maybe I could have helped; the only reason I can think of is that since it hadn't happened closer to me I disassociated myself with the whole thing. Anyhoo my thoughts on the social experiment is that maybe we've all come to except the social stigma that we act only for ourselves, the "every man is an island" mind set, or it could be fear of having to live with the thought of, if this person dies was my intervening a hindrance, did I kill this person. Guilty conscience syndrome? ~No.Na.~ Well at the very least you did try to help numerous people with their day; if they had sat in damp seat then I can imagine their day may have been less pleasant.

"oh... did i forget to mention.. that seats wet." i would probably only say it once because.. 1: it would get boring after a while.. and 2: i'd feel damn depressed that i ruined their day because i didn't mention that the seat was wet. so after the first time i said it i would probably make a little sign that says. "WARNING. wet seat" then at least when people ask me when was the last thing i did something for socioty i could say that i saved peoples asses and their days ^_^. P.s... your a real gentlemen for saying that the seat was wet.. most people in Australia would just shut their mouths. its good to know someone out there isn't a real idtiot. ~Riku~ thats very interesting.. i would honestly wait until they had sat down and got their rear end wet than say.. “oh… did i forget to mention.. that seats wet.” i would probably only say it once because.. 1: it would get boring after a while.. and 2: i’d feel damn depressed that i ruined their day because i didn’t mention that the seat was wet.
