    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      If it’s not obvious the person is struggling, then an offer to help with something as personal-spacey as loading groceries into a stranger’s car in a parking lot, is way more potential awkward trouble than it’s worth.

      Also Silence of the Lambs would like a word.

      Education is extremely important.

            She had a broken arm in a sling.

              Y'know, there are ways to get your groceries delivered or loaded into the back of your car in the lot without going in. God helps those who help themselves.

              That said, I would have asked her if she needed a hand. But I don't fault those who would not.

                    The answer is technology -- robots, drones, automation, those sorts of things.

                      I'd ask anybody with a busted arm if they needed help, man or woman, but if they looked all pissed off and aggressive I might give it a pass.

                      I was only joking
