    Do gooders are people who do good.

    Except when they don't.

    They're usually bipedal hominids with human DNA.

    There are several types of do gooders;

    No 1. The person who does good only to be seen to be doing good but doesn't really want to be doing good.

    No 2. A variation on No 1, only wants to be seen by bigger fish to be doing good i.e. the boss, manager etc.

    No 3. The person behind the scenes who really wants to help but doesn't want any of the recognition for all they have done.

    I'm female, mid thirties, dark hair and eyes, slim build, about 5'4, I look like natalie portman with short hair :/ I'm genetically predisposed to hayfever and asthma but other than that I'm healthy adult human. Hope this helps.

    I'm a No. 3.

    I think they are supposedly 98% and 95% genetically similar to bleeding heart liberals and the PC Brigade respectively. Or else a non-fertile hybrid of the two. Can't remember which.

    I'm a bigger No.3 than him.

    The males are generally between 5ft and 5.5ft tall. The largest males can weigh up to 65kg.

    Adult males are identified by facial hair, glasses and naïvete.

    They have a distinctive call, a high pitched whine that sounds like "Links please? Links please?".

    Females are notable for their hairy ankles and the ability to believe every sob story they hear.

    In the wild the do gooder is preyed on by the Racistrightwinger and the Unscruplousimmigrant.

    The lower appendage of a do gooder is known as a bicycle. A new species of do gooder was recently discovered that has an outer shell called a Prius.

    A group of do gooders is known as a protest. While at times a protest of do gooders may appear loud and angry, they are usually considered harmless to humans.

    Notable do gooder wildlife reserves include Aras an Uachtaran and the Seanad.

    Looking for evidence to back up witless, ignorant opinions, and helping to reduce pollution and traffic congestion?

    What kind of monsters are we dealing with!?

    Its a scary world out there. There has been some success in controlling their numbers using inaccurate stereotypes and aggressive cyclist hating drivers.

    However populations have been shown to explode in areas with education and Internet access, the exact reason for this remains unclear.

    Supreme arrogance and an unwillingness or inability to imagine any negative outcome that doesn't compute with their (usually) naive idea of how things will be after they intervene, are the main characteristics. A need to be admired by a certain social set (usually friends or desired peers in the PC Brigade and the Bleeding Heart Battalion), self congratulatory and the ability to absorb information but not rationally apply it to a world outside of their own savvy coffee house existence are also common traits. They are a distant more evolved branch of the so called 'Right-On' types.
    The road to hell is paved with good intentions, just look at Africa.

    Generally, they don't - do good, that is. Usually, it's a cynical, ruthless, hard nosed capitalist gone soft and philanthropic who ends up doing the most good. The rest are well meaning cabbages fumbling around sticking their beaks in.. IMO. But then I'm a ruthless cnut, so what would I know.

    Yeah, look at how all those bloodthirsty do-gooders like Leopold II and Cecil Rhodes ruined the continent with their wishy-washy, namby-pamby colonialism!

    Pure genius. The dogooderusrex has a new catchphrase du jour - 'check your privilege'. A phrase they picked up at sociology class and rehash at every given opportunity.

    Proving they should be tagged and set free. Incarceration is an extraordinary and unnecessary expense to the state.
