don't like huge crowds, even looking at this is giving me the heebie-jeebies
I Think I Would Make A Good Member Of A Large Crowd
You see, I’m not really a people person. I’m what you might call a populace person. I think of humanity as an amorphous, undifferentiated mass with no discernible goals or reasons for existence. And it is there among the faceless masses, blending in and exerting no will of my own, that I feel most at home. I’ve never been much for self-determination, so following along with a crowd is something I really think I’d be good at.
Yep, the crush on Halloween in Seoul, and the NYE one on the bund in Shanghai are seared into my memory. I avoid large crowds out of principle now
What would be pressure and temperature equivalents? How would supercritical crowd look?
And crowd laminar flow?
This is just walking in formation.
Trying to imagine a square meter and then putting NINE people in that
Trying to imagine a square meter
Every Burgerreicher has failed
Cursed game of twister
Now imagine a cubic meter and put 27 people in it.
*Slaps top of hypercube* you won't believe how many people you can fit in this thing!
One big mass of flesh and blood behaving like a wave with skeletons inside it.
It's a somewhat artistic picture.
