Rekul seems like a nice person to contact if you ever go Korea(South).

Rekul: first person i think about when coming to Korea :p

EDIT: totally agree with the underestimate time/effort spending to do favors. It just sucks. But the worst thing is when you don't get appreciated enough for your work... I felt so dumb sometimes.
do not agrue with idiots, they will pull you down to their level and beat you with their experiences

This, a thousand times over. It especially pissed me off in high school. The campus was fucking huge and there's all these fucking morons standing around babbling with all their idiot friends, taking up space, maybe taking a single step every minute, and the clock is ticking, we all have places to be.

"HAHAHAHA OH MAN DAT'S A GOOD JOKE- HEY LOOK A BUSY CORNER, LET'S STAND THERE AND CONTINUE THIS FASCINATING CONVERSATION!"

Holy shit, hurry up and get the fuck out of the way, no wonder you're late to every class and failing everything, you're too busy being slow and plotting various ways to piss everyone off by standing around like an asshole.

The campus has a lot of buildings, with empty space in between, but it's the principle of the thing. If you're gonna stand around outside, at least be out of the fucking way...

I've never been asked to do anything too big, like, giving someone a ride or something. I've never felt bad about it.

One possible solution is to attempt to explain to the person that the favor they want is actually a really big deal. It won't always work, but perhaps sometimes.

Person 1: Hey yubee. I was hoping you could do me a favor... I need an intro video sorta like the TSL one except about three times as long. That isn't too hard for you right? ^_^

Yubee: Do you have any idea how long that will take me? (Feel free to exaggerate). I can't afford to spend an entire day on a new video.

Person 1: Oh yeah I guess. Sorry.

btw yubee I could use an artist for a project I'm doing... you interested?

I see your point about doing favours, but at the same time, I think you should realize that if you agree to do something for someone and they make it clear to you that's it's important, you better follow through.

If I ask something of someone and I explain that I really need this or it will fuck over something else, I think I have the right to be mad if they agree and then just bump it down on their priority list because they don't think they owe me anything. If you weren't 100% sure you could do it, then just say so, don't say yes and then jerk me around later when you decided not to do it.

So, I see your point, but I think your argument is flawed.

Here's what usually happens for me.

"Can you do me a favour?"

"That depends... What do you want?"

A: "blah blah blah huge waste of time/inconsiderate request/I'll never see you again after I help you"

"I'd rather not." or "Sorry, I'm busy (masturbating), at the time when you want me to do whatever huge waste of time it is you want me to do"

B: "Favour that's really more of an excuse to hang out (could you go here with me, could you come over and help me with this blah blah blah"

"sure"

C: "Favour that's completely minuscule like "could you hold the door open for me" or "could I borrow your pen?"

"NO FUCK YOU YOU BITCH! I DON'T HAVE TIME FOR YOUR SHIT, I HAVE TOO MANY OF MY OWN PROBLEMS TO WORRY ABOUT! HOW DARE YOU EVEN TALK TO ME LIKE THAT! MY GRANDPA JUST DIED, I DONT NEED THIS! FUCK OFF, YOU ASSHOLE!"

+ Show Spoiler +
Don't do favours for people who don't have a natural inclination to reciprocate. This should just be instinct.
