sorry, but it looks cheap. |
This one looked particularly bad. The thing about something like a flash mob is that it's cool until it becomes something, at which point it becomes the height of lameness. That said, while I would never participate in one, they're utterly harmless, so I really don't see what all the hate is about. |
not hate, just...disdain maybe? its my my opinion. thats all. |

yeah, maybe thats it, steelrails. i think that what i feel. Instead of doing something worthwhile, its just bothering people, or maybe its not. or maybe Im just jealous of young hipster types  I did drink a Starbucks today though.. |

| It's one of those things that the first few times its done, its fresh and interesting. After that, unless your changing the formula, its boring and derivative. Mostly harmless though |

And what seems to be completely lost on them is that the first flash mob in NYC was done with the intention of poking fun at hipsters.
These things are about as cool and original as Chinese Fire Drills, and appeal strictly to attention whores. |

It looks like a way to get attention if you don't have the talent or charisma to deserve attention.
I would hate to hear them all talking about it afterwards...sharing weak stories about how it all went down. |

It was all just innocent fun.
Granted, were I an outsider, I wouldn't think there were any
half-way, decent looking foreigners in Seoul.
I'm starting to believe all the girls when they tell me
how 'handsome' I am. |
