senzidav
Definition from
own experience or research:
Asi treba vymyslieť termín ktorý by sa zaužíval. <br />flashy (senzačný) - treba to skrátiť, teda senzi.<br />mob (masa, dav) - vhodnejšie je dav.
Example sentences:
Dav, aby si ukojil nízke pudy, navštevuje futbalové zápasy a Senzi Senzus. Od toho - Senzidav (NOVÉ POHRONIE - Levický týždenník )
Discussion
Zisťujem že možno ide o (citujem):
- New protest strategy,
- An impromptu gathering organized by means of communication of the unemployed,
- Mobs gone stupid or girls gone wild,
- Or is it, in the end, all just masturbation ?
Mobs are:
- Highly suggestible. Given direction, sheep will follow.
- Anonymous. No formal leader, everyone shares (ir)responsibility.
- Highly dependent on participants, mindlessly following orders (or disregard the rules).
- Counter-revolution, where clowns are commandos.
"Let's hope that the cops start responding to flash-mobs with tazers and rubber bullets. I'm serious about this. If tax dollars are going to be spent on policemen standing around watching a group of assholes, we may as well get a real show and get our money's worth."
Tak
