When I see a little kid shopping with mom or dad, I will occasionally surreptitiously, drop a dollar bill on the floor. Catch the kids eye, and point it out with a " free money" look on my face.
True story. My BIL rides the same route every day. One day he saw a tire and rim resting up against a light post. A week or two goes by it's still there. It happens to be a six bolt Chevy rim. It will fit his truck. So he grabs it cleans it up and sells his truck. He still has the rim and tire. Coming home from work one day a couple of years later he sees a Chevy truck on the side of the road. It's jacked up and a tire is missing. Its a six bolt Chevy rim. So he goes home and gets his tire and drives back and puts it on the guys truck. It may have been a woman. Not the point. And goes home. The end.
I would have paid to see the look on the guys face when he came back.

Reddit is perused for entertainment, so of course the most enjoyed comment is a joke.
I thought the joking was funny.
The original thing is funny too.
You'd have to be pretty grim not to enjoy it.
For those who are curious here's the referenced meme.
It's so rare to find a Samaratin that's good that it's the stuff of legend.

I'm still holding out for a Great Samaritan.
