Shit Graffiti and Shit
by Iain on January 5, 2008
Got home today to find this shit graffiti on the side of the house, as well as a small pile of dog shit just next to it to finish the perfect picture of urban decay. I wouldn’t have minded so much but the letter formation on this ‘tag’ is absolutely terrible.
I must have done something bad to deserve them both in one day!

What about covering it with a little crackunit piece. Claiming yer turf an all that…

this post made me chuckle! i reckon you could start a turf war by crossing it out in bad black and write TOY beside it… that could be a bit of fun for a while.

Must have been his first tag with real spray paint.. he’s practiced writing it loads of times in biro in the back of his Humanities notebook.

Update – when trying to remove the graf using some aerosol ‘graffiti buster’ I got busted 3 times by people thinking I was doing the graffiti, which was quite amusing. I guess it did look a bit dodgy.
But it was good to see that people aren’t afraid to approach vandals in the act, it’s just a shame they weren’t around late on Friday night to stop the real baddies.

Were you wearing hoodie at the time? I’m sure if you were then people may have left you to spray in peace.
I’ve had a similar experience of late with a load of really shit graffiti appearing on the wall near the door to my flat. What I want is a Shit Graffiti recycle gizmo, where you upload photos of rubbish tags, and it spits back interesting stencil designs and automatically orders you decent quality spray paint, delivered to your door, so that you can render your turf markers.

Funnily enough I was wearing a hoodie and baggy jeans. I think that’s why I got stopped during my cleaning. If i’d been wearing some kind of white haz-chem overalls I might have looked more like a graffiti buster…

[...] wish I’d had that stencil when our house got done. Or maybe it just escalates the whole thing in a spiral of paint-based aggro. (Spotted on Rivington [...]
