One commuter failed to see the funny side: "I was trying to get my train home but the whole concourse was filled with students dancing and I couldn't get through. The last thing I wanted after a hard day at work was to miss my train because of the idiots."

I am with this guy....

"and the crowd danced wildly to their soundtracks in silence - for two hours...Last night's flash mob ended when four vanloads of police dispersed the dancers."

Nice response time there, police.

More than 4,000 clubbers people with NO job danced through the rush hour at Victoria station in Britain's biggest flash mob stunt.

"I saw the straightestlooking guy in a suit with his briefcase doing the freakiest dance moves."

It's nice to be noticed.

"I didn't even notice the commuters. When you get into the dancing you're oblivious to them and forget you're at a railway station." Chris Gale, 39, brought his daughter Sophia, three, and son Jacob, six.

Some people never grow up. Immature and self-centered, they do not contribute to society.

And the rest of us have work hard and put up with the useless idiots.

Well...they ARE Brits, after all...

I would have joined in just to get the exercise.

I don’t know that this wouldn’t have scared the cr@p out of me if I’d been there. I do know I’d have been highly annoyed if they caused me to be late getting home.

Maybe I’m just an old fuddy-duddy.

[nevergore]

Geez...I understand the work ethic, I spend between 50-70 hours a week myself...but this appears to be a happy group of people dancing....a cute harmless stunt for college age kids.....

Probably be fun to watch and join.....

[Shyla]

I think I would dance.

Rushing to and from work all the time gets old.

Wow, there are some serious curmudgeons around here today. With all the rotten things that go on in the world every day, seeing 4,000 people dancing and having a good time would have made my day. Lighten up, folks. Life’s short.

Crap. I thought this would be about a bunch of chicks flashing.

[Constitution Day]

Sounds like a lot of fun to me!

Today they dance, tomorrow they riot. Flash mobs are a method of testing the channels of communication.

Maybe these aren’t the droids you are looking for but one day it will be anarchists in the streets taking down the system. Mark my words.
