Smile at a stranger

Added by Dan Zambonini on 4th June, 2008

Here's an easy way to make two people feel slightly better about themselves today: smile at a random person on the street (or in the pub, etc). They'll get a warm glow, and hopefully you will to (unless you get a scowl back... I'm sure you won't!).

Use some level of judgement though; if they're carrying a blood-soaked axe, you may want to choose somebody else.

Unless they are wearing awful shoes, in which case they'll just think you're making fun of them, and they'll be sad...

Why stop at smiling? Give them a compliment, such as saying that you like their shoes... It'll make their day!
