A fellow villain sent this in-
Hello,
No gossip here, just a picture of a funny sign at the credit union on corner of Preston and McIntire.
I think they might want to stroll around the lot a bit to check on quality control.

HELL YES. A FLASH MOB IS FORMING IN CHARLOTTESVILLE. Some UVA Students have decided to have a preliminary meeting for Flash Mobbing. What is a Flash Mob? It’s where you do improv with bunches of people in public spaces. We will do a post on this in the near future. Visit UVA’s Chem Hall @ 3pM on Saturday to learn more. Can a cVillain report back for us? Thanks. [FB]
What did we miss?

The Hook reports that several structurally critical bolts were removed from a major 80ft+ electric tower over a Western Albemarle county neighborhood.
Three nuts were completely removed from one tower and eight nuts were loosened on a another, according to Albemarle detective Phil Giles. Although the two towers were damaged, Giles says they are “not in danger of fallingâ€â€“ that is, unless more nuts are removed.
What do you think? That’s pretty scary stuff if you ask me. Look for it on the evening news with TERRORISM ATTEMPT in the headline.

So, I saw this one and I was thinking is this worse than the blackface incident at UVA a few years back?
Apparently, the reason this hit the news was because of incorrectly managed privacy settings on Facebook. Most of the news media won’t show the pictures, but you can see them below.
They beep out half the stuff in the interview, but obviously this is poor taste. The guy on the phone who dressed up as one of the victims explains:
It’s not that it was funny, it’s that we are notorious and infamous in the state college, so we have to do things that push the envelope just for shock value.
He sounds insensitive to me. Listen to the whole interview, look at the pictures and tell us what you think?
Penn State officials were quick to respond to the costumes.
“We are appalled that these individuals would display this level of insensitivity, indifference, and lack of common decency and sense by dressing up in this manner,” the school said.

You might think this is the thing in West Virginia, but no, no it’s from Florida. You can read the wiki.

cVillains - It’s on. If you don’t know where South Street is, then you don’t deserve to join us at the meetup. I’m open to more ideas, but here is what we were thinking..
Not everyone has flashing lights, because we aren’t all cool like that
Not everyone will feel comfortable (at first) with the meetup
Not everyone wants to strip naked and run around the bar
Given these limitations, we were thinking (with your approval) that everyone could do something silly.
Here is our idea and if it sucks you say so and we can do something else.
Go to the steps in the middle of the bar exactly at 9PM. Look at your neighbors and ask “What time is it?” If your neighbor answers “it’s cVillain time” then you know you found the right person. It should be pretty funny if we have a bunch of people asking what time it is at the same time. Be merry and drink…
Everyone is invited. If you have better ideas then let us know!

Any thoughts on having an ambiguous cvillain.com gathering? We could all show up at some typically crowded venue and try to guess who is in on the secret and who is just there because they would be anyway. I’m realizing that I dont (think I) know anyone involved in this site and it could be a fun little social experiment.
