Flirting is a means of communicating that a person likes another person. If no one flirted, then meeting people would be even more difficult than it already is.

If you have a hot water tank, that hot water is just sitting there getting cold just waiting to be heated up again. A circulating pump puts that hot water to use by circulating it through the pipes, which has a nice side effect in cold climates of preventing the pipes from freezing and bursting.
