The world can sometimes feel like a nasty and sad place. It can seem hard to really make a change or fix things, many problems just seem pretty big or too complicated. However, as some people point out online, “you can just do stuff,” although sometimes that means breaking a few rules here or there.

The “Chaotic Good” online community is dedicated to sharing those wholesome moments where people decided to right some injustice their own way. So get comfortable as you scroll through, upvote your favorites and be sure to detail your own experiences and exploits in the comments below.

RELATED:

    If this is the first time you hear about chaotic good and it sounds like this implies the existence of lawful good (or even evil) then you are in luck, you guessed correctly. Folks familiar with table-top roleplaying (most famously, Dungeons and Dragons) will recognize the terms from what is called “character alignment.”

    In short, one can be good, neutral or even evil. A bit reductive, perhaps, but there is always some value in simplicity. There is also an x axis to one’s moral y axis, namely, being “lawful” or, as seen here, “chaotic.” In short, it’s a reflection of the means someone is willing to go to achieve some ends.

    As this list shows, “chaotic” isn’t necessarily bad in a world that can feel overwhelmed with rules and regulations. Folks who are “chaotic good” are willing to bend rules and circumvent norms to achieve positive outcomes. The idea being that a wholesome ending is worth putting the work in to solve some issue, even if it might cost you.

    Oh, OH, I wish I knew this at my old place. I know it would likely get the whole building shut down quickly, displacing a lot of people. However, so many people have already moved and some who have stayed would have been better off staying elsewhere. One old neighbour just abandoned her suite, it got that bad.

    In Japan it's difficult to find rubbish on the street because in general, people take it home with them and deal with it there.

    Hubby and I did the same, only it was just a "get-together" in our favorite pub. It was great because there was no pressure to buy gifts or dress in fancy clothes. All we wanted was a celebration with our friends.

    Beat the robot, yeah... more like thieving from the shop, thus forcing them to disable machines that many people find very practical. If ppl really want cashiers to stay, just stop using the machines. But no, we don't do that.

    He shouldn’t have punched that arsehole, but I approvz of his refusal to let it go. He should have just said “one of us is leaving the pitch this minute.” In fact the whole squad should have stood by their teammate and walked out.
