    I'd flykick her in the face, steal her bags and cook her dog.

    Oh, you mean honestly? All the lady would have to do is wait for green light, then she could walk. I don't really see the problem. I did help an old lady across the road two weeks ago, but she was blind, partly deaf and had a walking chair, she asked if I would just go beside her. Who wouldn't have done that?

    I have never ever in my life seen an old lady who needs help crossing the street. It's just a myth.

    Old ladies don't walk anywhere, they just drive 15+ miles below the speed limit.

    If I wouldn't have that important appointment, I mighthelp her, but as I do, she is out of luck. Loony BoB also got a good point there.

    Ive never seen an old lady needing help to cross a road. Roads arnt THAT busy here, so she'd be able to get across easy.

    Im honestly not sure. Id like to say I would, and be a lovely citizen, but If I was really really late, I don't know. Id probably.. just go

    I'd kidnap her and try and get some money (you know, for poker and that) from her family in return for her well being and safe return.

    But seing as that's not an option, I'd help her. I'm a very nice person

    I would help her, but I would not be happy about it. IOW, failing to be nice would make me feel worse than the annoyance of taking the time to help her and the annoyance that nobody else was helping her either.

    In a more realistic/common situation, I ride the bus to and from work and often sit in one of the front (handicap/elderly designated seats) because it's convenient for me to get off without having to push through a dozen standees. On a crowded bus all of the handicap/elderly seats are occupied by normally not handicapped/elderly people, which is fine normally, but when a passenger who NEEDS one of those seats comes on, in the five years I have lived here I have not seen a single person other than myself ever offer their seat. That ticks me off...and while I will always do it, it really annoys me that so many people are willingly oblivious to common courtesy.

    I would help her cross becuase then i might feel better and otherwise she'll be on my mind bothering me all day. And most likely knowing my life karma would come around to bite me in the ass that day and make me feel worse if i didn't help her. I help out my old neibor all the time i feel bad she's so sweet.

    Old ladies are evil...the best course of action would be to run away before they atack you. Trust me i know that´s what my granny does.
