I was banned from a candy store during my teenage mall rat days, along with several friends. We planned on grabbing some candy for a movie later. Immediately upon entry the middle-aged woman I recognized as one of the owners began to tail us very closely around the small store. We weren't roughhousing, stealing, or doing anything that would warrant an escort. Boyfriend decides he wants some ice cream and grabs a Choco Taco or something out of the cooler. The cooler is old and he's having a hard time closing the sliding door on the top, so it ends up slamming shut a little loudly. The owner physically pushes him away and calls him a disrespectful asshole. He drops the ice cream back in the cooler and the woman screams at us to get out. We just kind of rolled our eyes and left.

We decided to get dinner at the food court instead. We didn't notice she had followed us all the way there. As soon as we stopped to pick a table she grabbed my boyfriend by the arm and started yelling at him. I giggled nervously because it was just such a huge overreaction and I was super weirded out that this grown ass woman was putting her hands on a teenager who hadn't really done anything. She started screaming at the top of her lungs about what a worthless slut I was (you know how you talk to children?), to the point where a hush fell over most of the food court and people began to stare. Told us never to come back and if we did, she'd call the police.

They went out of business not long after. Can't say I was too upset about it.
