  • It may depend on the store. My local publix trains it’s employees like Chick-fil-A does, and they probably would be offended if you didn’t let them help you.

    The baggers at my local food lion (if there is a single one in the store) are offended that they have to help you at all (probably because they’re expecting you to be the fifth person today to come back in the store demanding a refund for the one cracked egg in their dozen)







  • There could just be no connection at all. Like how there’s a positive correlation between shark attacks and box office sales for Nick Cage movies. There might be some relation between them, but more likely there is no link and it’s just random noise that happens to line up particularly well.

    The reason why you might see it used as an end statement is because there is no data or clear logical link between the subjects which were correlated. It’s basically saying “unless you have some reason to believe they’re linked, you should probably assume they’re not”





  • Avoiding cold water is just bad advice and it’s perpetuated by people who do not live in hot climates. It violates thermodynamics to say adding cold stuff makes you hot.

    If you’re already to the point of sweating, your body is trying to cool you down. Adding cool liquid will make you colder, not hotter. Go read medical recommendations for how to treat heat stress, they will never tell you to drink hot tea and eat some chillies
