There’s such a double-standard. Donate a kidney and you’re a hero. Donate two kidneys and you’re dead. Donate three kidneys and you’re a felon.

**EDIT**

First off, thanks for the silver. I’d test to see if it’s real, but I don’t want to be disappointed.

Secondly, as another redditor super-detective-sluth-justice-crusader pointed out [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/pics/comments/10b6n34/a_friend_got_taken_hard_today_passed_the_acid/j49de17?context=3), this was not an original comment. I feel shame brought on me, my family, and any pets I will ever own for having repeated something *on Reddit*, which I’m sure has never happened before.

I’m sorry, Reddit. I’m so, so sorry. I’m sorry. So sorry. Sorry.

**2nd EDIT**

No really, guys, stop giving this stolen comment awards. As that other redditor pointed out at the link in my first edit, this is shamelessly stolen, and should not be tolerated or condoned by anyone for any reason ever. Please don’t reinforce this vile and duplicitous act of thievery, plagiarism, and moral bankruptcy.

**3rd EDIT**

Went back to capitalize “EDIT”. I’m so sorry.

**4th EDIT**

STOP GIVING ME AWARDS FOR SOMETHING I DIDN’T AUTHOR MYSELF. YOUR APPROVAL FILLS ME WITH SHAME.

**5th EDIT**

I’m disappointed in all of you. While I have you here, if you haven’t already done so, please get registered as an organ donor. Many of us and our loved ones have needed organ transplants in order to live full, healthy lives, and waiting lists are way too long. As long as your personal morality and worldview doesn’t forbid it, please register — sometimes it’s as easy as making a mark on the back of your driver’s license — check your local regulations. It’s an act of pure selflessness that can help more people than you think.

**6th EDIT**

<sigh> …. thanks for the gold….. <ugh> … kind…. <breathes in> …stranger.
