Today, I went to a store. I was wearing a shirt that I'd bought from the very same store, and was accused of stealing. When I tried explaining, the manager said I was lying because I'm a teenager and "all teenagers are full of shit." FML

Thanks for all the helpful comments! As to what happened next, security was called and we ended up looking at the camera footage which proved that I didn't steal the shirt. The manager was humiliated and apologized, but either way I am not going to be shopping from that store ever again.

A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

What a presumptuous prick. What, is he bitter and jealous of the younger generation? Should've brought the receipt and humiliated him.

Nowhere in this fml does it say that OP works at the store. On top of that, OP, store managers can't do anything without proof. If they don't have proof you can walk out with the middle finger up.

The sticker variety are very cheap, talking pennies granted they don't use them on clothing, but the kind they use on clothing are reusable

Get as many teens as you can to go to that store at the same time and buy that shirt then have them wander the store

Well if OP had ben sent to jail, chances are they wouldn't be posting it on here. Unless you can bring you cell phone into your prison cell with you. Which I doubt, plus the other inmates could break it make a shank and then kill OP thus making it more impossible to post this if they really did get in trouble from this. Chances are cops came they checked the cameras, told the manager he's a worthless mouth breathing sack of shit, and let OP go.

I would file a complaint. What did he want you to do? Undress on the spot and leave the store naked? I am sure that there are security cameras in the store, and if he is too lazy to get security involved, tell him to check his inventory for that same shirt. I would do anything to humiliate him if I was you.

That's illegal under Canadian law. Discrimination based on age.
