Your definition is vague, but I do like to think that i help out everyone who I can when I can.

If being a good samaritan means killing people for money and getting joy from human suffering, then yes, I am.

I do. If I'm out riding and I see a fellow cyclist stopped on the side of the road I'll slow down and ask if they need assistance. If a friend or co-worker needs a lift I'll help them out.

Usually am... I volunteer around once a month and have been known to donate some money.

Yes, and it always ends up biting me in the a$$ :|

I installed a wireless network in a client's house for free. He added a new addition and now complains I did crappy work his network keeps dropping (he never mentions the 4 additional walls that were put in between the router and the PC though).

Someone left their tailgate opened at a Toys R Us last week with a rear cab full of gifts. I closed it, and the lady came up yelling to stay away from her car (she thought I was trying to rip her off :| )

I let a lady get in front of me in stopped traffic. Her rear bumper clips my front bumper, taking off a chunk of paint, and she never ever stops

I could go on and on. I gotta stop being the nice guy because everyone starts depending on me. I'm always the one that gets calls for favors, yet I never seem to need anything from anybody.

Absolutely not. I've only got a certain amount of time on this earth, why waste it helping people?
