fun to ruin

[metasynthie]

Flash mobs are fun and all, but the phenomenon has apparently gotten to the point where jerks who don't think about how someone is going to have to clean up their mess are in the process of ruining it for everyone. Apparently the organizers of this spontaneous event text-messaged everyone to say "Practice responsible fun. Clean up after yourself!"

First off, I can't believe people are still doing them. This shit is old. It makes perfect sense it's just self-smug scenesters now. Group-wide in-jokes are for those bereft of wit, and that describes most of those scenes. I'm expecting it to take off in Vancouver any day now.

I actually sorta know Bill Wasik (friend of friend). I'm curious what he thinks of those articles.

we don't have flash mob stuff going on down here; probably due to either urban sprawl or threat of beatdowns/shootings by local rednecks.
