Man Steals Underwear from Victoria's Secret, We Share Our Victoria's Secret

 

I consider myself a novelty thief (a salt shaker here, a candle from the Heath Ledger bar there) but I have to give a guy some novelty credit for stealing a buttload of underwear from a Victoria's Secret in Dallas. And ever since my own unfortunate incident in a Victoria's Secret fitting room, I can't help but smirk a little at this. 

Last year, in the throes of writing the casserole book and eating, like, 8 casseroles a week, I desperately needed to invest in a girdle (yes, women still wear those), so I set off for my nearest Victoria's Secret, thinking they'd be, you know, discreet. When I asked if they had the nude in a larger size, a woman yelled across the room to her colleague: "Do you have this girdle in a large for this lady?"

They didn't. 

So, I decided to try on the medium. The tighter it is, the more it sucks... and sucking is what I was going for. After I wiggled my way into it and witnessed the girdle's amazing sucking powers, I thought I'd buy it and I started to take it off. But I couldn't. I was stuck. In a girdle. In a Victoria's Secret. In Brooklyn. After a few minutes of trying to get out if, I asked the sales associate, who had so graciously yelled my size and purchase across the room, to help me get out of it. And what did she do? She laughed at me.

Ten minutes and one pulled shoulder muscle later, I got the fucking girdle off, all by myself. 

So, yeah, forgive us if we think it's hilarious that a man stole 160 pairs of underwear, worth about $1,000" from a Victoria's Secret in Texas. According to reports, he snatched the undies from a table and sped off with his accomplice (who held the door) in a green car.

Stealing armloads of underwear from Victoria's Secret is nothing new. I was a temp for them one Christmas and we were warned to watch for anyone, man or woman, we large shopping bags lingering near the underwear tables. You steal the underwear and then return them for cash since those damn panties are worth, like, 8 dollars a piece or something ridiculous....

Excuse me. We DON'T wear girdles anymore.. We wear SHAPEWEAR. That way we can be sucked in but don't have to feel like our grandmothers

Gawd that's awful. Yet hilarious!

I refuse to shop there, since I always have a horrifying experience. The last time was awful. So, I'm fairly petite, but cursed/blessed with a lot of wits, if you know what I'm sayin'. So I go to VS and some tatty yo says with a sneer, "well we might have A MATERNITY BRA for you. You should just get what you can PACK 'EM INTO." Loudly. Fuck them!

It's like the scene in Bananas, "Hey, this guy wants to buy a copy of ORGASM Magazine!"
