Thanks to the red-headed Aussie for waiting -- and pretending you weren't -- while I backed into my Chebucto driveway during rush hour. I was flustered and kept screwing up because an asshole almost hit me. I honked, he jumped OUT OF HIS CAR to scream at me. Terrifying. Your calm presence helped a lot. —Honda Fit

We were getting off a very crowded #1 bus at the Oxford Street stop heading north. We were both leaving from the middle doors, which opened to a huge icy snow mountain before the sidewalk, blocking our exit. I only saw it once you had catapulted yourself over it like a champ. The doors were going to close so I made a weak, half-assed jump onto the mountain. You offered your hand and helped me over it and explained that you really gotta go for it or you'll get stuck on the bus until the next stop. You're a gem. There should be more people in Halifax like you. Thanks for the help! —The Timid Bus Escapee

To the house who turned their speakers out on the corner of Robie and Coburg on Friday morning for everyone to hear “My Girl.” What a lift of spirit! —Your Girl

Thanks to the throng of party pals who paid for one room but took up the whole hallway at a downtown hotel on March 7th. You dressed remarkably well for whatever the occasion was and said so yourselves in the elevator when referring to the loser of a security guard who asked you to keep the volume down. You showed everyone who ruled when the air attendant who complained about noise was required to switch floors while you partied on. My family and I didn't sleep all night, but driving home my teenage daughter said, "If I ever say or do anything that makes me look as self-entitled as that bunch, you have my permission to disown me." So thanks for clarifying her values for her. You provided a shining example of self-congratulatory selfishness which we will refer back to while trying to raise our kids to show some respect and common decency to others. —Your Hotel Neighbours

I guessed your WIFI password, I accessed your network without your consent. I needed time to afford my own. You caught on quickly and did nothing. You deserve an apology, and a payment. What I did was wrong and undignified. —Faith in Humanity

Big 'thank you's to my lovely neighbours who helped me dig out last week AND this week, even after tackling their own huge driveway ice boulders and frozen cars--you guys are the best! I was able to get my icy driveway cleared and car primed for work thanks to your awesomeness!! Special thanks also to the Unknown Shoveler who cleared away the crazy ice boulders from my driveway today (Sunday)--whoever you are you made my day so much easier, so much nicer. I hope the evening finds you all cozy and warm, and that your week is even sweeter. —Shesang

This goes out to the two beautiful humans that were helping people push their cars out of the slushy snow on Monday night on Herring Cove. I was lucky enough to not get stuck, but you boys were angels for standing out in the stormy mess just to help out others. —Only my second love ever, but totally worth it.
