Culture Buzz North America got pantsed. Improv Everywhere in New York City and FlashMob Mexico in Mexico City both staged underwear only metro mobs over the weekend. Which city has the better collective ass? You be the oggler! #OccupyWedgie
Movie Buzz From the minds that brought us 160 pantsless people riding the NYC subway and a frozen Grand Central Station, Improv Everywhere is making a documentary about their pranks and the people behind them. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to make this movie happen.
These people look like they're having fun, but do you know how hot a suit is? Very. Too hot to wear to a beach.

The entire opening scene from Star Wars: A New Hope, recreated on the 6 train. You'd think that the princess of Alderaan could at least afford a cab, but I suppose you'll take anything when you're busy avoiding the Empire.
