'Tis the season to consume.

So the perfect way to cause a little chaos, and maybe protest a little...
Walk through a mall, very slowly.
It results in exchanges like this:

Security: You have to stop that or I'll have to remove you.
Us: Stop what?
Security: What you are doing.
Us: What are we doing?
Security: You are creating a spectacle.
Us: How are we creating a spectacle?
Security: Well... uh... you are walking slowly.
Us: We can't walk slowly?
Security: No.
Us [pointing to an elderly person moving across the mall very slowly]: Well, what about her? She's moving very slowly.
Security: No, she's moving at the appropriate speed -- you are moving too slowly.
Us: Can you show us what is the appropriate speed? I mean, how slowly can we walk and still remain in the mall?
Security [getting flustered]: No, you simply have to leave the mall. Leave the mall or I will call the police to remove you.


(Conversation stolen from a magazine article, but I don't remember which one.)
