+174 Not ALL human decisions are for one's own benefit. It is certainly possible to perform a selfless act purely for the benefit of others, amirite?

The only way it could be completely selfless is if it was an accident; bumping into somebody and pushing them out of the path of something, but not even realizing that you did it.

Just like clicking YYA didn't really benefit me in anyway, but I did it to help the OP's post! :D

Now with the achievement system, you are closer to gaining an achievement. So this did benefit you.

yeah, but at the time that I commented that amirite? achievements didn't exist.

Okay, but you YYA'ing the post, would make the OP feel good, and if you do something that makes somebody else feel good, that makes you feel good. And you feeling good would not be a totally unselfish act.
