Or do you believe in a universal average karmic response time?

Or neither?

It's bugging me!

I never behave in a less than saintly fashion so it's hard for me to judge...

That depends how intelligent you are. The more intelligent, the quicker your shit comes back to you. The less intelligent, the slower and more convoluted it will be.

Karma, as defined in Mahayana Buddhism, takes lifetimes to come around.

My turnaround is so quick its incredible. If I do something bad, I get some shit within half an hour. Its rather trained me to be saintly and great.

And modest.

Hey, its difficult to be modest when you're as good as me.

― Johnney B (Johnney B), Tuesday, 20 April 2004 18:32 (twenty-two years ago)

As good as I.

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Tuesday, 20 April 2004 18:33 (twenty-two years ago)

Modesty is my best quality.

No, "good as me", surely? "Good as I" sounds clunky in this context, and "I" is the subject, not the object. Or is it the other way round . . .

― Johnney B (Johnney B), Tuesday, 20 April 2004 19:15 (twenty-two years ago)

Good as I (am).

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Tuesday, 20 April 2004 19:18 (twenty-two years ago)

Oh yeh, I see it now. Spotters badge!

I guess you could say I'm karma-paranoid and I believe in quick response - if I'm on the way to a date I'll make sure to unload all my change on bums in hopes that karma will get me ass. I'm a pretty ignorant guy.

I find the opposite true as well - if lots of good stuff is happening, I know that the payback is just round the corner.
