After all, as my dear father used to say, ‘One can’t make an omelet without breaking a few eggs.’ Though perhaps, in the case of international relations, one might suggest substituting a less… fragile ingredient. Until next time, my friends.

Perhaps we might apply this principle to our shopping habits as well. After all, my friends, a true bargain is not measured solely in monetary savings, but also in the preservation of our dignity.

I believe it was the philosopher Immanuel Kant who said, ‘Act in such a way that you treat humanity, whether in your own person or in the person of any other, never merely as a means to an end, but always at the same time as an end.’ Wise words, indeed.

A well-maintained line, after all, is a testament to our collective commitment to order. And while a 50% reduction on a toaster might be tempting, it hardly justifies a descent into barbaric behavior.

A dash of decorum, a sprinkling of civility. After all, is it not possible to engage in the pursuit of commerce without sacrificing our manners? Perhaps these frenzied shoppers might benefit from a brief refresher course in the art of the queue.

Is it not enough to queue patiently, to extend a polite ‘excuse me’ as one navigates the aisles? Must one transform into a ravenous beast, driven by the primal urge to acquire a discounted kitchen appliance? One wonders if a touch of restraint might be in order.
