They'd recently opened a new Ann Summers shop in the shopping center near my house so me and my friend decided to go be nosy and I noticed straight away that one of the boxes that should have contained a vibrator was empty but never had a reason to pay it too much mind.

Next thing I know, about 5 minutes later, we're about to leave the shop when the manager starts screetching "Wheres the rabbit?!" We just looked at her blankly like "wtf??". so she starts waving the empty box around going "the rampant rabbit, where is it?" It sounded so comical, I couldn't help but laugh! Partly out of sheer disbelief and partly cos she sounded so stupid asking for a stolen vibrator!
She demanded to either be allowed to search our bags or call security on us and thats when I start gettin vex cos had she decided to to her job properly B4 we walked in, she would known the bloody thing was missin from time! So me with my hot head and quick temper was gonna stand my ground, refuse to be searched and tell hershe best come call security cos I wern't about to let her come anywhere near me but my friend who likes a quiet life said "ok then search us". so she looked in our bags and i swear i've never seen a woman apologise so quickly! I was so embarrassed by the whole thing that I still regret not makin a complaint! I mean to be accused of theft is bad enough but to be accused of teefin a vibrator is beyond a tolerable level of shame blkwall

I've got two stories, one I had to laugh myself, but the other I got vex like you sometimes do when embarrassment passes a certain level.
Story 1 - The Waltzers
One fine summer's day in my teenage years me and a few friends and one of my cousins decided to go to the fair. These were the days when girls were rocking the bob wigs haaard. you know the shiny ones with the fringe and graduated at the back? anyway, I didn't have one myself but my cousin did so I asked her if i could wear hers and she agreed. now not being a wig person normally I just put it on my head straightened it up and thought i was good to go.not a pin nor a grip in sight.
shortly after arriving at the fair we decided to go on the waltzers. yeah you guessed it, the next thing i know the wig has left my head. so i'm spinning round and around in this waltzer car and i can spot my wig flying through the air into the crowd of people hanging around the edges - like they do. all i can see is people dying with laughter at every turn of the waltzer car. i could not spot one straight face and i myself was mortified but also cackling hysterically because i also found it hilarious - strange and sick as that may sound. of course i was worried about my cousins wig (cost about £30 i believe at the time) but i was more worried about what to do when the waltzer stopped. eventually the ride ended and i saw a girl i know at the edge in tears of laughter holding the wig in the air for me to collect. i graciously laughed took my wig and went home. that was a bad day for me because i also lost £20.
Story 2 - Marks and Spencer
one afternoon in the run up to Xmas about a two year ago i was doing some last minute shopping and had lots of bags. as a final stop before going home I went into M&S food hall to pick up one or two things so didnt bother getting a basket. as is often the way i saw a few more things i needed and ended up at the till with all these things in my hands. at the same time i am trying to drink a can of coke because i am really thirsty - shopping can be really thirsty business.
i spotted one more thing i wanted (special offer) while in the queue and tried to reach for it. at this moment the can of coke goes flying out of my hand. i dont know how it happened to this day but the can of coke took on a life of its own and flew through the air. it was all happening in slow motion and i tried desperately to catch the coke because i could see it was headed BEHIND me (WTF??) ...and straight into a woman's bag of purchases.
well sadly, i failed to catch the can of coke and more or less the whole open can of coke fell top down into this big M&S bag full of paid for clothes that was being held by an asian woman who was in the queue behind me. she is with an older asian lady and they both are standing there in shock while I'm repeating again and again...i'm sorry, i'm really sorry, i'm really, really sorry.
now people in my queue and other queues are turning round to look and see what's happened. nuff of the coke is on the floor too (never know one can held so much!) people are going on like what has happened is really exciting and something to see and this is getting me even more embarrassed. i simply dont need this kind of attention. the woman who is operating the till I'm waiting for decides to shout out: what's happened!! I said to her there's been an accident and a can of coke is involved...and she just carried on gawping.
the indian women now become hostile. the younger one is saying; we've just paid for these!! they're ruined now!! you need to give us the money!! the older one is saying: why were you drinking that coke? how could you have done that???that was stupid!! they are taking out all the things out of the bag -my can of coke is sitting at the bottom of the bag and it's all men's suits, shirts and ties in there, not cheap stuff. now I'm getting hotter and hotter because i already feel bad enough and i dont need this - I've said sorry WTF! so i'm suggesting they call an assistant and explain whats happened because M&S being the kind of store it is i was sure they would have replaced the goods free of charge. the two women are still looking at me and making noise instead of following my advice so i start to get pissed off now. i want to argue back, even feel to lick dem both down, but realise i do not really have the moral high ground at this time. so instead i decide totake charge of the situation andtell the woman at the till to call for assistance.
when assistance arrives it is left to me to explain what has happened and in no time at all the two asian women are whisked away to have their goods replaced free of charge. none out of the two of them even bothered to thank me for my great sugggestion either, and i was left in the queue still being stared at by everyone with the pool of coke still on the floor until it was my turn to be served. i was burning with embarrassment all the way home and i truly hope nothing like this ever happens to me again. even the wig incident was less embarrassing for some reason.
