Human: I'm looking to comfort a friend who recently had a flat tire on their car. Do you have any thoughts on how I could do this?

Assistant: Sure! I have some ideas that might be helpful for you: 

- This is a great opportunity to be kind to someone. What's important to remember is that you don't have to fix their problem to be a good friend, just be empathetic, present, and supportive. If you have their back and are there to comfort them, they'll already feel so much better. 
- It's fine to let them vent, and being a good listener is one of the best things you can do. 
- Reassure them that it was not their fault, and validate that they are upset about it.
