A Quick Trip to the Mall

Earlier this evening, we took a quick trip to the mall for a birthday gift for my neice and when we got there, the mall was under construction. And it's not just any construction...it's completely disruptive construction...the kind that requires detour signs in the mall parking lot. We had to drive all the way around the mall to get where we needed to be...because apparently we're too lazy to walk ACROSS the mall. But that's not what I'm here to tell you about.

Have you ever been so completely annoyed with mall security that you wanted to do something to find out exactly what they can do about it? Basically, have you ever wanted to mock mall security? What are they going to do...throw you in MALL JAIL (thanks Katharine)? We were trying to drive around the mall and the security car was in front of us with his stupid yellow flashy light on...driving SO slow that we SHOULD have walked across the mall...it would have been faster. I was going to pass him...in the parking lot but I didn't want to get a MALL TICKET. This guy rolled along the front of the mall...up to a stop sign...turned on his directional signal (or blinker for those of us in Massachusetts)...looked both ways even though nobody was around (yes we're still in the parking lot)...and finally, finally, turned right. And then repeated this...two more times! Holy shit...call me impatient, but some of us have places to be!
