Oprah Flash Mob Something Or Other

Let's get one thing out of the way here before we start. I never have, and never will understand middle age woman's obsession with all things Oprah. Have you ever seen those shows where she gives shit away to the audience? Those women act like Brad Pitt just agreed to have sex with all of them, everyday for the rest of their lives on top of a pile of millions of dollars that they get to keep after. And it doesn't even matter what the fuck she's giving away, just the fact that Oprah endorses it these women eat it up. Seriously. She could come out and be like "alright everyone, if you look under your seats you're all going home with a container of my used douche!" And these women would start fainting in the aisle in between fits of hysterical screaming. What is it about Oprah that these bitches love? I'll probably never know.

Anyway apparently Oprah started her 24Th season yesterday, and to kick things off she invited the Black Eyed Peas to perform. And for whatever reason like 20,000 people showed up to this shit. The silver lining is that these 20,000 people were all in on this thing called a "flash mob". A flash mob is basically where a bunch of people gather at a public spot, do something wacky, and then get the fuck out of there. This flash mob involved the entire crowd learning a choreographed dance to this shitty Black Eyed Peas song and doing it together. The result is actually pretty fucking cool. What would have been even better though if they would have all just stood around silently like they are for the first 20 seconds or so. I wonder if Oprah would have thought it was as awesome.



Here's a funny flash mob story I heard. Basically the main group that organizes this shit decided they were going to pick an unknown local band, show up to their next gig, pack the place, learn all their songs so they could sing along, and go absolutely nuts for this band. So they pick this band called Ghosts Of Pasha, did all those things I just listed and as soon as the gig ended they cleared the fuck out of there. So the band figures that they are finally getting somewhere and now have some kind of rabid following in New York. A couple days later they find out that it was all just a big prank, and that they are still, in fact, a shitty band that no one has ever heard of, and they were crushed. Ahh pranks. The best ones are when someones feelings are hurt.

Here's another cool flash mob for that ass.
