Wal-Mart Syndrome

When someone pays as little money possible for an item, and expects the item to be of the highest quality.
George: I went to wal-mart yesterday and got an amazing deal on this, but the first time I used it the thing broke. Doctor?

Doctor: Ah yes, I have seen this before. You have a condition known as Wal-Mart Syndrome. The cure is simple, shop somewhere else.

The Wal-Mart Effect

The natural phenomenon that occurs when one enters any Wal-Mart Superstore needing nothing, yet somehow ends up leaving with a full cart.

This is probably due to their low costs, extended store hours, and poor employee benefits.

See: Wal-Mart
Victim: Dude, help me unload my cart.

Victim's Friend: I thought you said you didn't need anything?

Victim: ...They did it again! It's The Wal-Mart Effect, Gets me every time.

Victim's Friend: Ah, I see what you did there. Very well played, Wal-Mart.

Wal-Mart Clusterfuck

The condition in which a large number of people with no real direction or purpose suddenly find themselves in conflict with each other, and simultaneously decide - subconsciously - to meet in the middle, which somehow manages to only make things exponentially worse.

Easily prevented by situational awareness, which is generally checked at the door when entering consumer supercenters, convention halls, and other buildings/spaces which see generous amounts of human traffic.

The sort of thing that might happen at a 6-way intersection if the traffic light were broken.
"Everything was cool, until someone started running. Then other people started to panic and they started running, and no one really knew which way they were even supposed to be running; eventually it just turned into one big Wal-Mart Clusterfuck.

I don't think anyone even knows what that first guy was running from."
