Ever Been Dissed While Doing a Good Deed?

I think God Dissed me on this one today:

To make a long story short: I was at the Southland Dog Park and someone lost their dog. I saw a dog on one of the greens on the golf course on the other side of Deerfoot, so I spent an hour and a half running through knee deep snow (it's like running in sand and you know how much that sucks...) trying to catch up with it only to find out: I'VE BEEN CHASING A FRICKIN' COYOTE!!! No wonder he wasn't coming to me when I called him!

The crappy thing is I never found out if they go their dog back. So if anyone knows someone that owns a dog named K.O. or Kayo let me know if he made it home? Thanks!

Umm... Are you sure they didn't just say "Coyote" and were having a bit of fun at your expense?

Me: *At the theatre* I bought you a Coke from 7-11
Girl: ... You went to 7-11 without me??
Me: I looked for you but couldn't find you. But I bought you a Coke.
Girl: I don't want a Coke.
Me: ... Fine whatever. *gives Coke to a buddy instead*
Buddy: Sweet! Free Coke! Thanks man!!!

At least SOMEBODY appreciated it. Women I tells ya!

No. I saw the dog bolt. He was being chased by another dog (that I think was just playing) and he got spooked. I guess at a distance shepards and coyotes look similar (or I seriously need glasses!)

I was walking into 7-11 and got to the door first, held it open for another guy coming right behind me. He's says " damn canadians are too f'n nice!"

So, i said " ok then, F U "..... he just looked at me. took a step back and said " Fair enough"

was really funny cause he had the deer in the headlight look...priceless

Certainly a moment that made me think, "Why the heck do I even try?" I still do it, but wow, that moment will be forever burned in my mind.

It sucks when you try to do something nice for someone and they turn around and make you feel like a giant anus.

What a piss off. Sounds like that guy is just mad at the world. Like Captain Dan from Forrest Gump. It is sad when people become so jaded that they asssume something negative before something positive.
It reminds me of a time I was walking into a convenience store. There was a guy approaching, some teenage black gangsta wannabe (I'm sure he was real tough) and he's kinda walking slow, but he's behind me, so I hold the door.
Now, IMO, the proper ettiquite in this situation is for the guy to pick up the pace a little. But no, he's walking like his equilibrium is off kilter, head bobbing and some sort of shoulder dysfunction that almost made him appear drunk, and just as slow as he can. So I let go of the door practically in his face. This annoyed him and he followed me around the store while I grabbed my drink and snack.
Then the guy stands in line behind me (really close). So I turned around and (kinda cocky voice) said "What, am I supposed to be scared of you? Next time someone is holding a door for you, why don't you pick up the pace?".
The stupid kid was too stunned to say anything. He walked away to go find chips or something. Like seriously. Am I supposed to be scared of you because you're wearing untied construction boots and your pants are around your ankles? Ooh, because you're black and therefore you've got homies in LA that are going to come and shoot up my house? Or is it because you're a teenager? Am I supposed to be scared that you're going to stab me or something inside a Sev? Are you going to follow me to my truck? Was it not enough that I dropped the door in your face, would you like a fist there as well?

Gonna Hijack this thread:
It turns out that the dog/coyote I was chasing: was the dog! So if people can keep an eye out if you are in the south. It's a younger dog (6 months) Shepard/Rottie mix. Tan face and legs. Ears pointed up (as opposed to being floppy) He's wearing a choke chain and is dragging a blue leash. His name is Kayo.
It's been a week, so if he's been walking far he could be anywhere.
(Am I crazy because this has been haunting me and I won't/can't let go? He's not even my dog!!!)

Depends on whether the owner is female and hot.

I was at Wal-Mart a few years ago just after Christmas. There was a kid infront of me in line buying some toys with his Christmas money. I could tell that he had very carefully calculated the toys he could get with his money. The catch was, he forgot about the GST. The GST amount was less than a buck and the kid looked crestfallen that he would have to put one of the toys back so I pulled a loonie out of my pocket and paid his GST.

His mom comes to the end of the till (had gone through in a different line) and says to the kid "How did you get all of that, you didn't have enough money?" The kid turns and points to me saying "I had enough money, but I forgot about the GST. That nice lady over there gave me the money for the GST, it was less than a dollar mom."

The woman looks at me and sneers "Thanks a lot", turns around and leaves. The kid looked at me, said "I'm sorry. Thank you very much."

Man, that story is more sad than anything else.

I thought the diss came when the kid called you a lady... I just assumed because of your username that you were a dude...

Did you drop kick that condescending harpy in the throat?

Man a lot of these stories are annoying to read. I have a hard enough time when somebody fails to give me a wave after I let them into a lane. Frankster's story makes me want to blow up a walmart.

My older two kids play Grassroots (outdoor) hockey. If they're playing at the same rink, I'll bring along my blades and stick and horse around with one boy while the other's playing. Last week, when it was quite warm, it was cancelled, but we got the phone call too late and were already on our way to the rink. A few of the kids showed up for my younger boy's game - I guess the parents were already on their way when the call came - but when it was my older boy's turn to play, only one other kid showed up and nobody showed for the other team.

I had my skates on, and a couple of the younger kids from the earlier game stuck around, so I decided to make the best of it and organized a little two-on-two game going widthwise with both nets. Other guys showed up and decided to snag one of the nets. I thought, meh, there's only four kids and they can go half court.

Well, the mother of the other kid that showed up didn't like it one bit.

"Why don't you grow a set and go get that net back?" she snarked at me.

"Whaaa?" I replied.

"You heard me. You're the coach. Grow a set of nuts and go get that net back."

"I'm not a coach," I said.

"Well, you're the substitute coach," she muttered.

I said, "Listen, lady, I'm just a dad that showed up with his kids. None of coaches showed up (I had no idea it was cancelled) so I'm just trying to help out. AND DON'T YOU EVER BRING MY TESTICLES INTO THE CONVERSATION WHEN YOU'RE TALKING TO ME, OKAY!?!"

[Locke]

^^ Wow.

First of all, its no big deal, you're right, they're small they can play half court so share the nets so that other people can play too.

It would have been polite for them to have asked you, but its not a mortal sin.

I cant believe a complete stranger said that to you. What if you were an axe murderer with a short fuse? End of days right there.

I found a lost dog a couple weeks ago. I had it sitting in my car, wondering what the hell I was gonna do with it, when some kids walked past and recognized their dog that they were looking for.

I thought they might think I was stealing their dog, but it turned out they were very grateful. Kid even gave me five bucks. So yeah, it was neat. Most of the time I do people favors they are grateful.

You should have rolled him and taken the rest of his money.

I have a good one. I didn't really get burned, but it's kinda funny.

I was in vegas buying mix and beer from a store at about 3AM, paid the clerk, and walked towards the door. When I got there I noticed a decent looking girl walking in from the other side, so I pushed the door open with my case of ginger ales that I had just purchased (may other hand was full with beer and about 8 bags of chips). Of course, the top of the cardboard case ripped open and ginger ales hit the floor, exploding and spilling everywhere. Other people just kept walking in the door like nothing had happened, but the girl whom I was holding the door open for immediately jumped to my aid, grabbed a bag from the clerk, and helped me out picking everything up.

After it was all cleaned up she asked where I was staying, and if I needed a ride back. I told her no, I was just down the street, and that me and the guy who I was at the store with were there with girlfriends/wives, and didn't really need a lift anywhere. She insisted, saying it was the least she could do, so finally I gave in and said yes.

I hop in her car, which has another good looking girl in the front seat, who immediately starts grilling us as soon as we close the door.

-where are you from
-what's your name
-where do you work
-how much money do you make

I'm getting a little creeped out at this point, and I'm starting to figure out what she does for a living, so I look over at the original girl with the ol WTF look on my face. She's laughing at her buddy, and whispers something along the lines of "we're only giving the nice Canadian boys a lift back to their hotel".

Her friend then turns back and goes "Look, we're $300 an hour if you guys are interested, if not we can drop you off at the hotel". We politely say no, reiterate that we're there with wives, and ask for a lift back. Of course, when we get back to the hotel my buddy and I go running up to the room we're in and yell out like little school girls "GUESS WHAT!?!?!? We got a ride home from HOOKERS!!!" Unfortunately, it wasn't met with the same type of excitement from our significant others who immediately assume we just got BJ's in the alley or something.

It still makes me giggle inside just thinking about it though. Actually, it just goes to show what a case of ginger ale and $300 can do for you in Vegas....
