I was accused of shoplifting today as the Energiser AA battery 4 pack I bought from Kapiti Pak N Save last night set off the alarm in Woolworths.  I went through my pockets to find the docket to prove I'd paid for them elsewhere. but came up empty other than other junk.  The "security" person then told me she needed to have a look at the aisle on camera.  She went to her manager and found that she was busy. She stood there, I was told I could go but told that she didn't believe I bought the batteries somewhere else so I stood there waiting for something to happen.  After questioning that she didn't believe I bought the batteries elsewhere and getting this confirmed, I was told I could go.

Are you Australian? Or of Australian descent? Or look Australian?

Three for me, and two for them.

Handy Manny AND Dora, Robb. Too much time in front of Playhouse Disney?

Apparently I'm apathetic, but I couldn't care less.

I wouldn't be a good teacher if I couldn't relate to my inner child every now and then!
 
(I've actually never seen Handy Manny before, the userpic is tribute for Moose-cat.)

The lightfingered character which i think Product is invoking is none other than Grabby Crabby:

..swanning around the Kapiti Coast wth his pockets full of batteries. Sounds well dodgy.

I got plenty of fiber because I bought a packet of spicy fruit muffins just before setting off the alarm.

Looks pretty harmless TBH. With those hands I'd like to see him try to open a door.

He'd be 'handy' for taking the tops of beer bottles, tho'.

I set off a security alarm in Aussie a few years back but that was when I walked into the shop. The first thing the security guy asked me was "Have you got something with batteries in your bag?"
As it happened, I had my camera in my bag and he said the batteries set off the alarm.

I had that the other day in New World.
The box for my new earphones set off the alarm when I went in and I was asked to show what was inside my bag.

I then had to do the same thing when I left. Searched by the same guy.

The worst is when you arrive and the alarm doesn't go off, but it does when you leave?

were you dressed like this?
 

All I do is make the stuff I would've liked
Reference things I wanna watch, reference girls I wanna bite
Now I'm firefly like a burning kite
And yousa fake fuck like a fleshlight
