Age/Gender Profiling

A few hours ago, a few friends and I decided to go to 7-11 to get something to drink. We entered the store and headed to back where the drinks are. We were in there for about two or three minutes when the man at the cash register started yelling at us to hurry up. We were all like, "What the fuck?" because there were other people in the store but he was only heckling us. After buying our drinks, he rushed us out of the store. We left the store, still pretty confused, and stood outside of the store to drink what we, unfortunately, purchased. The cashier was obviously watching us very closely and then he started throwing pennies from the take a penny-leave a penny in our direction and making "shoo" gestures with his hand. Just to give you an idea of the scene, the cashier is a typical, Indian 7-11 worker with a heavy accent and we are all 16-17 year olds who go to the high school in the same town as the 7-11.
So, we were standing out there drinking for less than a minute when the hubristic jackass has the nerve to come out of the store to tell us we have to leave. Now, there is a sign posted on the outside of the store that specifically states that we have 10 minutes to be there. He tells us we have to leave or he will call the cops. We respond by egging him on, encouraging him to call the cops because we've done nothing wrong. We ask him why we had to leave and reminded him that we are paying customers. He responded with something along the lines of, "I no want you here. I no want your money." We asked him why and the response we get...."I asshole." Seriously, "I asshole" was his reason why he wanted us to leave.
Shortly after, the cops showed up and without asking any questions demanded that we get into our cars and leave immediately. The cashier had a stupid grin on his face as we all got into our cars. When we were about to pull out, the cop, who must've felt pretty fuckin powerful at this point, came to the window and asked my friend how old he was. He said 17 and the cop demanded his license. His license is a provisional one and he is only supposed to have a maximum of 1 other person in the car and there were 4 of us. He threatened us with a ticket and I pointed out that he insisted we get in the car and leave. At this, the cop was speechless and let two of us get out and walk (we picked them up right after).

So... two cases of age discrimination within 10 minutes, one of which came from a cop! Pretty sad if you ask me. Anyone here experience something like this? It's bullshit because I can guarantee I'm more mature and intelligent than that arrogant cashier. The owner of the 7-11 in the next town over is always nice to us and lets us stay as long as we need to so this whole experience came as a real shock to me.

But why did he wanted you to leave? why?!! the question is torturing me!!

Aww well, cops can be -not good- sometimes, at least this on had legal reasons, i friend told me that once a cop went to him, and instead of telling him something for being an underage drinker, asked him if he could help him get the store guy for being selling beer to underages, the problem is the store guy hadn't sell bear to underages, since one of them had 18 and was the one who buyed it. What the cop wanted was money or free beer from the store people, which he got.

Drunk

I miss the togetherness of coming on the flash red forum and posting about the simple facts of having drank a few too few money. I'm pretty drunk myself and it is saddening, Where is Kirk when you need him? AND Luis! That lovable man would get drunk and post whenever he felt the need.

Also, those 2.1 speakers are about to be 5.1 (Logitech X-540) -- they're actually being shipped right now.

As you've probably concluded, I like Logitech :D. Everything I've bought from them has been quality. I want a G15 keyboard :(

Yes logitech are the shit!
The 5.1 speakers with sub is pretty awesome. Nice quality speaker system which is pretty fucking cheap also. I recenlty save up enough so i could buy myself i computer pretty much just so i could use flash without having anyone else in my family buggin me to get off. Something fast and so it wouldnt slow down, sick video and sound card, 19' widescreen monitor, 2gb ram, 320 gb hardrive. My pride and joy also.
Since ive got it, i rarely come out of my room now when im bored at home.

oh, you know what you do? this works so well, especcialy when the store owner knows you and serves you clearly knowing your underage and trusts you? you go in, with the pigs money, buy drink, stash it somewhere, then go back to the pig and say he didnt serve you, they say you can have the money anyways beforehand, so the pig thinks you're going off with some money, but really, hes just gave you money to go get yourself some drink.

I've always known they've existed, but only today have I actually opened them to see what they can do. You can make some reallt neat stuff!

BET FISHY

I have 2 of those :P

I heard the reason they do so is because they think there's another(male) fish in the mirror and they try to scare the crap out of him. It's really fun to watch nevertheless.

Cock joke!

Pet shops in Norway sell them as "Japanese fighting fish", makes them sound way more bad ass. Beta fish sounds like some kinda big flobby thing, or like some prehistoric fish that was like a true "beta" fish with lots of errors and stuff.
I shouldn't post in this thread though.

Flooding

Joy! one of my friends in england cna't get out her house :D

Flooding

The last time I had a flood bad enough for that was like 2 years ago... And even then, it was only 2 feet high in some places along roads. I live on a hill by a lake, so it's not really that much of a problem.

NO! Get back on Mynamewontfitin's story

Okay, so at the time that I used to work at a 7-11, which was only recently because I quit, there was a large, male white, santa-figure type cashier there, that I associated with at work. I am 16 and white, as are my good friends. So, I wasn't there for this, but my friends told me all about it. My friends were in 7-11 all purchasing items, my one friend in particular purchased a Monster energy drink and some food. So since we all like to hang out there, as it's almost a second home to just chill, this big guy Lonny starts accusing them of stealing and loitering and being disruptive. Lonny continues to get on their backs even after they keep quiet, which they already were, and not cause any disruptions, which they previously weren't anyway. So then Lonny tells them to get out, and my friend Mackenzie says in an annoyed tone, "What for!? We're not doing anything, what the fuck is your problem??" Now for the part of the story that I don't remember understanding too much. To my understanding, Lonny comes up to my group of friends and specifically Mackenzie insisting that they get out right now. My friend Mackenzie has this thing where he says "I'll fight you!" a lot, whether in a comical manner or semi-serious manner. He always says it, that's him! So, as we leave, Mackenzie goes "I'll fight you!" and Lonny yells back something like "Oh, I'll beat the shit out of you." Then as he turns around leaves he says "I'll put a bullet through your head..."

So apparently, this all happened 5 minutes before I came there, so I missed everything. But that is a clear example of age profiling 100%. They did absolutely nothing wrong, we're good kids. People profile us because we hang out in a large group together, but really, it's just that we're all 16 and all best friends. So, whatever, there's my story. All you need to know now is that I quit.

My friend told the manager the next day about the situation. Nothing was done.

I didn't start off being at a computer. I only get to my computer after an epic drive home. I haven't realized I was so far gone. I was barely able to lay in bed without getting up to throw up. I had the spins so bad. At one point, I went in the bathroom and sat next to the toilet. Luckily, it wasn't so bad that I actually did throw up, but at least I might have felt better if I had. The worst part of the story is this morning I had to get up early to go to the junkyard with my dad so we could get parts for his car(the car that I drive now and again and got in an accident with).

I think I did worse than you in everything(except maybe not critical reading) but I still walked away with a 1740. I did better than a decent amount of my friends, which I got a kick out of because some of them too those ridiculous SAT preparation courses.

..::profiling?::..

Teenagers aren't the only people who get profiled...

I was profiled driving through Ohio, I guess the cop saw a relatively young person, unshaven, driving a nice looking car (1998 Cadilliac DeVille, gold color) and a danger signal went off in his head, maybe they were looking for someone that fit my description, I dunno. I was keeping up with traffic but hadn't realized that the state speed limit was 5 mph less than whatever state we just went through, but still, going 5 over the speed limit is hardly something to yank someone off the road.

The cop made me get out of the car and stand next to his squad car, presumably so that I couldn't hear him interrogating my sister, in the baking hot, mid-summer sun. After several minutes he left my car and walked over to me, asking me all sorts of questions: Where I was going, why, who's pills were there in the car, what they were for, what does our mother do for a living, when was the last time I got a ticket, etc. Trying to catch me in a lie.

Eventually he left me with a warning for speeding and following too closely. It was total bullshit.
