compulsive compartmentalization

It’s not people I don’t like, though you might hear me say so.

What I really mean is that I hate the dynamics that manifest when large groups of people gather in one location for the purpose of spending money. In these places, and for those hapless souls who find themselves trapped there, the rules for four way stops disintegrate. Aisles, typically following the rules of the road, become a mess of foot and cart traffic, as if suddenly England materialized into America in one moment. A moment where half the population think nothing of traveling on the left, the others on the right. Not to mention a few poor souls who simply are too confused by it all to move at all, and instead become medians, bisecting the mayhem.

What is the solution? I have none to offer. Except that if I could I would build everything I needed at home.
