Need help thinking of a name of something..

[rl]

Those groups of people that meet up in a certain place at a certain time and do something seemingly pointless then leave. Like they will meet at a mall food court then all at the same time clap 3 times then leave. What is that called? I've been trying to think of it for weeks and its bugging me.

I would call them a bunch of fucking weirdos, but that's just me.... I've never heard of that before, so I'm not sure what they call themselves.

Oh I've heard of thise before, it was on an episode of CSI, oh its on the tip of my tongue. Damn it.

Its generally groups interested in phenomenology, its kinda neat, but odd at the same time.

I found what its called on a CSI: Miami web site that I found, its called a flash mob.

Flash Mobs, that is what they are called.

 

Edit: beat me to it by a few seconds.

To make you ask why they do it.

 

Some people say its a study of phenomenology, others say its just to fuck with people. You make of it what you will I suppose.

[Science Abuse]

well I can respect them for wanting to fuck with people, that other reason is just fuckin nerdy. graemlins/thumb.gif
