At this rate, we will have to eat it tartare without a nice Chianti.
Do you know what else has blood in it? Blood.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Yes, I know what your products are like. Yes, I know what a melt is. I assume there are new bath bombs, that's why I'm going over there to smell them. Please leave me alone. Yes, I love Buffy too. How are there 14 sales people in a 150 square foot shop? Leave me alone. Please, I'm fine, thank you. If I need anything I'll ask. Yes, I know where I can find you. Great, thanks. LEAVE ME ALONE OH MY GOD ONE MORE PERSON SPEAKS TO ME AND I'M WALKING OUT OF HERE.
I have walked out of a Lush when that happened. I told someone to leave me alone, and someone else started talking to me. I told that person to leave me alone, and someone else started talking to me. And I gave up.

That is so exactly the Lush experience.
At least at Teavana (I presume), even if you've been there before there's potentially a ton of stuff you won't know about. I know where the goddamn bath bombs are.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
I have found with Teavana, if you walk in with purpose and talk to the person at the tea desk, you get less of the woo-woo.
Lush? I haven't found counter measures. I try hard to walk in, grab what I want and get to the check out desk as fast as I can but I still get accosted.

I'll echo what everyone else said about immediate vs. long-term help.
Yes, so much of this.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange
I accidentally taught a coworker a new word: fellatio. She had to ask another dispatcher what it meant before giving out the call.

Wait, that was a piece of info on a call? Was someone doing it wrong?

Not a funny story :( I needed a radio-polite phrase for blow job, thought it was super funny that the lesbian mother of two had no idea what that phrase meant.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Trudy, I will not go back into the Teavana in the mall because of the predatory salesfolk.
Amen, sister. I had to do a scathing Yelp complaint about the last Teavana I went into. I am the expert in aggressive walk and that does not phase the Teavana people I have been in contact with. They also ALWAYS over-measure. "I said I wanted 2 oz, asshole, don't give me 4."
