"Why, hello Mr. Pill Bug. What are you doing so far from home? Let me help you. No need to be squished on your journey through the hallway. It's alright, Mr. Pill Bug, I understand you are more closely related to Crustaceans than insects, and that's why people like you so much."
I paused because I'd nearly tripped over a guy kneeling on the floor in the middle of a hallway today as I entered the building to my Literature class. I stopped, about to ask him what he was doing when I heard him talking to a pill bug, better known as a roly-poly bug. His buddy was standing next to him, silent. I'm not sure if it was annoyance, confusion, or reverance, but nonetheless. This cute guy not fitting the typical Abercrombie stereotype took the time to remove "Mr. Pill Bug," from harms way.
Most people wouldn't care, in fact, I wouldn't have paid much attention. But the fact that a young man took the time and had what seemed to be an enlightening conversation with a Pill Bug left me smiling at the small act of kindness for the next few hours.
I don't know who you are, and I don't really care. But sir, you made my day.
