  • So in order to get a refund, Walmart wants the customer to hold on to a gloppy mess, and then have them personally travel to a store to bring the glop into a brick n mortar location, for a product that they paid to have Walmart deliver to their house, all just for walmart to refund the customer a measly 8 dollars back, for a fuck up that was all Walmart’s fault?

    That’s insanity.

    In all the other grocery delivery services, when a customer calls in to report that an item is missing or damaged then the company simply refunds the customer for that item, no questions asked. Which is obviously the correct way to do things.

    This person was NOT being unreasonable. If you were the customer service person in this conversation then i would double check that you’re actually following Walmart’s procedures for damaged inexpensive food items.








  • The whole topic of drugs could easily be covered in 30 minutes. The only thing people under 18 need to know is this:

    1. There are a large variety of different recreational drugs, each of which make you feel a different way, and which come with their own set of different risks and benefits

    2. At some point when you’re older it may be reasonable for you to try some particular drugs, but there are some drugs which are never safe for anyone at any age

    3. No drugs are safe for you to do yet. Your brain is still in a developing phase, and drugs that might be safe for you to do later will be very harmful to you at this age. Even though taking a drug might make you feel good in the very short term moment, it very likely could make your growing brain become depressed as soon as you come down from the drug, and this can become intense sadness that you feel for the rest of your life.

    So for now just know that drugs is a complex topic that you can learn more about later when you’re older, but for now the details don’t matter because all drugs will be harmful to you right now while your brain is still growing


  • IANAL but if you don’t object you still can’t ask for a mistrial unless you argue that the defense given by the lawyers was literally incompetent, and I’m far from an expert but i think that’s a pretty hard bar to reach. Especially if pre-trial they would put that lawyer on the stand and ask why they didn’t object during the testimony but only complained after the testimony, and i can’t imagine any valid argument that would be accepted by a court.

    Bottom line, I’m not an expert at all, but if they purposely didn’t object so that they could ask for a mistrial, I’m pretty sure that won’t work at all



  • (Not an insult) i assume you’re autistic or have some autistic traits, so maybe people in the autism forums could help too.

    Generally you can look at anything and everything you want to look at, but just don’t do it for more than a few seconds in a row.

    Like for example if there’s two of you at a table and you’re having a conservation then it would go something like this. look in you tablemate’s eyes for 3-5 seconds, then look at your plate for a few seconds while you’re using your utensils on your food, then look in your tablemate’s eyes for another 3-5 seconds, then look at the wall decor for a few seconds, then back at your tablemate’s eyes for a few seconds, then back on your plate to look at what you’re eating for a few seconds, then back to your tablemate’s eyes again for a few seconds. Now that i talk it out, i think it’s right for about every other look to be at your tablemate’s eyes.

    Basically it’s the same as any situation where you’re having a conversation with someone. Look at their eyes for a few seconds, then look at something else for a couple seconds, then look back at their eyes again for a few seconds.
