contamination of human DNA much? that is what I think of when someone says that someone was mobbed. As we all probably know, bands and YouTubers and actors and anyone remotely 'famous' get mobbed.
Now in every fan base there is the fandom name and the 'fans" but the difference is the people doing the mobbing (the fans) are all probably ratchet hoes and twelve year olds, where as an actual family member (or fandom member) will meet them with dignity and get a cute 10 seconds with them, not a vicious, contaminated 3 seconds (if that).
Now the reason I wanted to bring this to your attention was that, some people suffer from severe anxiety (like Alex gaskarth) and others just enjoy their personal space, and when you crazies mob them you invade that. Your heroes will still be there for you, even if you do scare them by pulling stunts like that, but some may never want to return because of fear that the crowds will increase.
Today on Twitter there was a massive debate on the mobbing of 5 seconds of summer in America. The real 5sosfam were sat behind computers and phones worrying for their health where as the new 'fans' were there, in the airport germing everything up.
In my own personal opinion, everyone deserves space and nobody should be able to take that away, attacking people and nearly injuring yourselves is not the way to go about just to meet someone you're probably going to go off of soon. if you're a real dedicated fan, then you should have been at home, worrying along with us.
Who wakes up one morning and goes "I think I'll join a gang and go hang around the air port and see who gets off the plane" because you may as well just join a prison gang and change your name to Steve.
HOW DOES ANYONE GET THE PLANE INFORMATION ANYWAY?! Like, I know some people track their flights, and sleep over on the benches or the floor but how...? that just seriously baffles me.
Another thing about mobs that irritates me is they all scream so loudly, it could be 3am and they would probably scream about cheese for the fun of it, sometimes I wonder if they plan their chants and songs and conversations, for the rare opportunity of seeing them.
Mobs tend to huddle together, so they seem really intimidating but I bet they are all just individual balls of crazy, so together they are like an atom of pure fakery. well, that's my analogy anyway...
I am clearly not a mobster, because a) ha! I'll be in the comfort of my bed
b) my lack of people skill
c) my lack of patience
d) my lack of strong lungs
e) my lack of intimidation
f) I cannot be trapped in that germ pit
but seriously back to point E, I have the most unthreatening middle fingers Britain have ever seen...
it's not always mobs in the fanzone areas either, there are mobs on social media, there are mobs roaming the streets, and there are mobs of the elderly at the bus stops.
in conclusion, band members + planes = crowded air ports + crazy fake fans + germs + unhappy real fans and a nervous wreck of a band.
therefore, mobs; just say no!
