What's in Rolla? noth'n

I've already been banned from my hometown wal-mart for filming inside the store back in H.S. Like they'd ever remember that though.

:lol: :lol: If we're banned from Rolla's Wally, what type of social life are we supposed to have here :lol: :lol:

You could do it in the K-Mart that no one ever goes to.

Wow, after reading through and watching all those videos, I have to say that's fucking brilliant. I really want to be part of a flashmob one day.

Target would be an easy place to do it at. Their dress code consists of red top, khaki pants, and namebadge. Half the employees don't where the namebadge anyways. The belt, shoes, tucked in shirt, clean shaven all optional.

In the article Wasik claimed that he created flash mobs as a social experiment designed to poke fun at hipsters, and highlight the cultural atmosphere of conformity and of wanting to be an insider or part of "the next big thing"


You know, you guys that are wanting to do this all of the sudden are the people that this is making fun of....

or we just want to have a little fun and have a story to tell.

You can say the same thing about everything... joining/learning and all that stuff as trying to conform or getting on a bandwagon

Actually no. The guy who originally STARTED these had that intention in mind. However, as with most things, the concept grew out of his control where it became something for groups of dedicated individuals to do for fun.
Personally, I don't want to be a part of a flash mob to "fit in" or be an "insider." I want to do it because I love causing (non-harmful/dangerous) chaos and confusion, and just because it seems like it'd be a lot of fun.
