I did do this. I'm of the school of thought that holds that you keep random acts of kindness quiet, and that the more you talk about them, the closer they get to the performative appearance of kindness - wanting to be *seen* doing something, and applauded for it - as opposed to the genuine article. So I'm not saying what I did, other than to clarify that it wasn't the ongoing blood product donation thing; that one I'll yak about plenty. :)
Edited to add: This is, for the record, my own view on acts of kindness, and absolutely n-o-t intended to judge anyone else's intent. Your mileage and reasons may vary, I know it, and I realized after I'd posted the above that I should probably make that point clear. Yeeks!
