Flashmob
At exactly 1:23am last night I started hearing really loud music and screaming outside of my window. I was in lala land and thought I was dreaming but then it snapped in my head that this was really happening. I looked out my window and there were over 100 people magically there blasting music, screaming, dancing, and lighting fireworks in the middle of the street. These people just showed up out of thin air and decided that my quiet desolate street was a good place for a dance party.
Fun? NIMBY…so I called 911 and it rang for a while and then it played some weird robot tone and then finally a real live woman was on the end…
Operator: “911 what is your emergency”
Me: “This might sound weird but there are 100 people outside my window and they are blasting music and lighting fireworks in the middle of the street”
Operator: “ughhhhhhhhhhh”
*phone starts ringing like it’s transferring*
Automated robot message: “That is not an emergency. Please call 311.”
So I hung up and decided to call my local precinct. Problem being I don’t know my local precinct’s number so I typed “police” into google maps on my phone and ZERO came up for Brooklyn. The closest was in the Lower East Side so I gave them a call. The woman on the line told me “ha, this is Manhattan sweetheart” and couldn’t find the number to a Brooklyn precinct, which was great help.
I then dialed 311 and once I got through the myriad of menus and “press one for” bullshit I looked out the window and they were gone. All 100 people vanished. Can someone please explain what the fuck that was?
