Yeah, it's an absurd yet sweet idea.. Bunch of people get together just for the sake of getting together and having fun as a group..What's wrong with that?

Do you devote every moment of your life to charity? They're not spending every second "flash mobbing" - these are normal people who work, may volunteer, etc. etc.. If they choose to spend a few hours once a week having a goofy good time then who is it hurting? The next time you're going to a movie ask yourself why you're not going to a homeless shelter..

I thought it was a mob of chicks flashing boobies in the streets en masse. Now that would be a sight to see!

Right on, you can cluck like a chicken and brag to all your friends about how awesome you are, or you can see some nice boobs. I vote for the boobs option!

Finally a response to one of those ANNOYING comments. Some people here are such tighta$$es when it comes to having a good time.

You cant have a good time these days without someone telling you're wrong. I spent a 100 bucks at the bar last weekend. I should've donated it to AA or something, right?

Sorry not everyone is a Saint like urself.
