Gormless Wars

Walked past the Odeon on Picadilly yesterday to find Darth Vader and several storm troopers had taken control of the entrance.

But instead of running away in terror, passers by were doing exactly what I would expect them to do if ever there was an alien invasion: stopping to gawp and pose for photographs.

I wonder if the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy has anything to say about this human tendency?
