No. I'm a real asshole to a lot of people, including my friends. So...
I'm pretty sure he's referring to the "nice" meaning of good. Not "good or evil" but more, "Are you a dick?"I_Sinanju _I said:
My exact answer, more or less.War Penguin said:
I do what I can. I try to be polite and respectful to people, and I help out others when I can. However, I often make very rude and inappropriate jokes in the presence of those close to me, I'm very stingy when it comes to money and the loaning out of it, and I often find myself very covetous of many other people. I'm very blunt with people (in the nicest ways possible), and will flat out tell you if I don't like you/something you are doing.
So... Kind of? I don't think I'm the proper person to judge myself though, as I'm very negative about myself (especially lately).
I think I'm a good person.
Mainly because of the person part in there, it basically requires you to have flaws and make mistakes.
I have flaws, I make mistakes but I do my best to make the most out of what I do have and try to remain true to my own morals and values. As far as I'm concerned that qualifies me as a good person.

I don't think any man living in the western world can be honestly called a good guy.
We live relatively luxurious lives when the poor in the 3rd world live like trash. I'm sure we all give some to charity (or atleast I do), but if we were fools, we could give the majority of our incomes away and still have enough left for decent housing and quality food.
Ofcourse the problem is that money always has a tendency to end up going from the providers to the selfish (rich or not) and not necessarilly to other altruistic people, who happen to be starving.
So at best we are polite, law-abiding and not going out of our way to harm other people.

I have good intentions. I do my best to be a kind and noble person.
The success of those efforts is... questionable. But I do think that over all I'm a fairly good guy, yeah.

I'm good, but I have my bad sides I never really show. I'm a terrible guy against woman (especially girlfriends) and I have the habbit of treating people like dirt if I don't like them. I'm also a compuslive liar in real life.
But all being said and done. For my friends and strangers, I'll always be on the ready to help them out. I'm a good friend, and a terrible enemy.

You, sir, are brilliant.kman123 said:
OT: Yeah, I am. I always try my hardest to enjoy life, and live in a tolerant and hopeful manner. There's better people out there in this world than I, but there are also far far worse people.
Well, Yes and no. Insofar that I don't go out of my way to be a dick to people, but when people go out of their way to be a dick to me, I go out of mine to be a bigger one back. I suppose it depends on how you view a petty and vindictive nature in the grand scheme of things.
