Do You Think You Could Be Part of a Mob?

[NotOfTwo]

Oh god yes.

Great and terrible scene.

Faaaantastic...something to cheer up a gloomy winter. Sigh.

 

[NotOfTwo]

Um....

Well.... From one point of view it does. But another point of view it ends gloriously in that it propels the action forward like a Mexican hooker on a train.

Erp

 

[NotOfTwo]

Being threatened or being trampled?

LOL, either I suppose.

 

[NPcomplete]

DANG!!! I thought you were bringing them!

DRATS!

I was hoping you wouldn't remember.

Okay from my uber secret personal stash *sigh*

The nice thing is that in comparison to another mob scene this scene isn't half bad!

It has been a long winter. *sigh*

But if a long summer -> a long winter then hopefully a long winter -> a long summer.

(and a long winter afterwards....but we live for summer.)

I love how everything descends into an orgy of cookies and tea. But it's an orgy I'd gladly participate in, mob or not.

Hahahahahah so I came here thinking that we were talking about the Mob, the Mafia...GODFATHER! And was going to say that yes, I can easily see myself being an ..

*and now I've said it*
*mischief managed *

*so for the more serious response now*

Hmm yes I have done this before, quite unfortunately. I regretted it afterwards (unless it was for hijinks like the aforementioned House Avatar "let's all share a brain for one night" thingie) because I thought that I wasn't being true to myself in the end. So now, um, I take a step back and think more.

Pro-tip from Ti: the title says "a" mob not "the" mob.

So... it has come to this. "The" mob can be used to describe a crowd. "Mob" on the other hand is used to denote the mafia.

I am sure you are just jealous because I was able to write "mischief managed ".

Anyway, I am off to sleep-dream-read my book. Have some more "coffee".

 

[entropie]

Part ? Leadership !

 

[Saslou]

I suppose i could be part of a mob if i felt violated with regards to something i valued highly such as my freedom.

 

[Jaguar]

No.

 

[garbage]

I wouldn't join a mob. In fact, I would use my extensive martial arts training to single-handedly take down every member of a mob if it ran counter to my interests.


I think that people rarely ever consider themselves to be part of a mob, or outright decide that they will be part of a mob. It's something that just seems to happen.

I like loud protests. They're cathartic and pretty damn fun, and I get to run and shout without anyone considering me mad. If they're for a cause I actually support, all the better.

ohh yep.
you just confirmed it to be Te mentality, which ive noticed to flow high in intj forum.

but on that regard, yes its the best way to convince Te's of the truth.
for example, pirate party is obviously the only scientific political party out on this planet, but Te's dont listen to truth, they listen to numbers.
thus we have pirate party mobs formed to rise our numbers, tactfully.

 

[miss fortune]

no... I hate crowds and loud noise... probably not exactly characteristics that are desired in riot participators

 

[Poki]

No

I could probably be a part of a mob -- the studies on diffusion of responsibility are just so counterintuitive that I don't trust my gut feeling that I would be an exception to some rule.
