Default Are people generally nice?

I tend to see the good in people and ignore their bad points, there is good in everyone, no?

PS the hugest Gekko is now crawling across my fly screen, I am off to investigate.

Are you going to be leaving out mince pies and a glass of sherry for the burglar?

Lol,we have around 15+ a night come to visit us,kids love to look outside the front veranda(do people in oz say that?)the gekkos love the security lights as it attracts all the moths & other beasties-i dont want to know about!!
I like the gekkos & skinks! the other night i rescued one that had fell into my bleach bucket at 4 in the morn,wonder if the poor sod is still livin

Our wee one thinks its amazing to touch their tail before it darts off!!

I do too but the downside to that is that you can't always see when someone is causing hassle for you. I tend to always give someone the benefit of the doubt as that is my nature, and I wouldn't want it any other way really. It can't be very nice if you don't trust people and always look for the worst in them.

Bit of a late one tonight, did not realise the time as it is past 2am I think I better make this my last beer and go to bed, the burgalar appears to be poised in ambush mode, if only something would come along

One more beer then bed.

"Are People Generally Nice?"

Ummmm. Nope! Some are some of the time, but generally (i think thats the current buzz word ) human beings are inherently selfish. And what do you mean by "nice"? Could have a thousand and one connotations.

I'm off to make a coffee. Tis all too deep and meaningful at this hour of the day. I have a headache already

That is not very sinister at all. How disappointing

There IS good in EVERYONE! ...

I sing from the same hymn sheet as you! ... altho missus always says I'm too trusting! ...

EVERYONE has good points surely, albeit some have a few bad ...
