The interesting Grafitti thread

post descriptions of interesting grafitti/tagging you have encountered.


At uni, someone drew a picture of Bush in one bathroom, well, giving it to Kerry in the a**. It was just stick figures drawn in the expected positions with arrows designating who was who, right above a urinal.

Some people (democrats, probably) were none too happy about this, so they added their own insults, mostly towards the original tagger. Someone must have felt real strongly about it b/c when I came back a few days after the bush picture showed up, someone had punched a hole in the wall, right through the plaster where the bush picture was. (it was drywall at the time, not tile). Some moron also wrote "Glory Hole" above the hole, with an arrow pointing to it. someone also wrote "Gay masochist seeks straight sadist, will do ANYTHING!!!" or something like that.

The staff eventually filled in the hole with more plaster, but people kept chipping at it through the semester until it fell apart again, after which they added tile. People now regularly draw on the tile with permanent markers, and the poor damn janitors just keep scrubbing it off..

I know the faculty is dying to put a camera in there to see who does the vandalism, but it will never happen b/c they would never get away with it.

Pretty much all the bathrooms (Mens, anyway ;) ) have grout jokes written in the grout. Things like Grout Expectations, Grout Balls of Fire, Oscar the Grout, etc. If you've thought of it, it's there.

There also tend to be a lot of heated debates written on the walls. Some of them were pretty crazy with the election last semester.
Pissed Off?

I may have seen slight defacing here and there, like carving words into plastic toilet paper dispensers and stuff, but never graffiti and stuff...

I saw a short essay about how bad a president bush was carved on the back of a stall door. It then had grammar and spelling corrections and a rebutal written below it. I thought it was hilarious.

Hee, yes, I always correct graffiti spelling.

On a library table, I saw carved in "This is not a table".

I thought this one was randomly cute enough to merit a picture. I do realise that it's more of a legitimate mural than someone's grafitti. Might post some more from the mural/grafitti contest at Roskilde 2004.

Bonus-points to the fellow Helsinkians who are able to tell me where in Helsinki this is. (Hint: neighbourhood of Ruoholahti).
If it breaks, you get to keep both pieces.

The best I've seen was "beware of rabid thespians"carved on an exam table.
