We were on a bus, he was standing and walking towards the door, trying to grab one of the handle bars available for people to hold on to. He was missing it by some 2 or 3 cm... after his 2nd or 3rd failed attempt, I just grabbed his hand and laid it on the bar. He said thank you and I said don't mention it. and he went on his merry way.
Now that you say you don't like people touching you... I think I may have been a bit rash there... :-?
I think it depends on the situation. I don't even like strangers touching me. I think it would be worse if I didn't know they were there and then someone touches my arm.
And drich, you attempted to fool a blind person into thinking she has a jesus fish avatar for your own amusement. This would be equivalent to someone giving you the wrong directions in a foreign country whose language you cannot speak. You're an asshole.
