OK, here's the story:
I was at the store the other night, about 6 p.m. I was making some homemade chex mix, and I had to pick up some lemon juice and some onion salt. I decided to get a jug of milk also. So, here's what I look like.... Average dumpy Joe, carrying lemon juice, milk, and spices, wearing a GAP fleece jogging sweats pull-over, jeans, and sandals. Minding my own business, I stop for a sec at the valentine's candy stand to see if the sweet tarts are out yet. There were two girls looking for some candy also, and they had left their shopping cart a couple of feet away.... Well, the candy stand is a big square that you walk all the way around. They were coming around the corner clockwise, and I was going around it counter-clockwise. When I got on the other side of them, just near the area of their grocery cart, one of them JUMPED, LUNGED over toward the cart, SNATCHED HER PURSE, and shot me the most EVIL "I've got mace, you sick thief motherf@cker!" look at me DEAD IN THE EYES. W H A T T H E H E L L was that all about? I didn't look shady, shifty, or threatening, my ARMS WERE FULL, I was looking at the candy the whole time (as a matter of fact, didn't even NOTICE really that there were any girls OR carts in the area until this happened.) WTF? That insulted me SO BAD. Has this happened to anyone else? You know, if she was just being careful with her purse (which I presented her with no reason to do), she could have made it a little less sudden, and could DEFINITELY have done it without giving me the look! She was just being MEAN when she did that! -Which enforces my feeling that I didn't look the LEAST BIT threatening to her. Had she felt threatened, I doubt she would have had the balls to treat me that way. She would have grabbed the pruse and moved along. DAMN. Just about ruined my night, but I just had to let it go.
