I need a idea for a social experiment. I need to break a norm out in a public area and write a paper about it.

1) It can't be illegal (no smoking weed or humping things).
2) It can't endanger people.

Any cleaver ideas would be great.

Thanks

Dress up in khakis and a blue shirt and go to best buy. just stand around and wait for people to ask you questions.

whenever you go to the bathroom, make sure you use the stall/urinal right next to someone.

or sit next to someone...real close...on a bus or stand next to them in line.

get in someone's bubble. and do it fast enough to pop it.
