Yup, http://antiadvertisingagency.com/project/light-criticism/ .

In fairness, advertisements are far worse than graffiti.

Terry

I thought Let them eat cheese on the inside of the quays (God knows how they got it there) was funny

On the wall outside the Dublin Bus depot at Beech Hill:

'IMF, **** OFF'

Its been there since the weekend anyway. Someone must have heard the news break, and immediatly had the thought 'You what would look great....'

It's all to do with context and current events.
That seems to be lost on you though.

I love that image.

It perfectly sums up the level of discourse that the Irish public are capable of. Limp-wristed ("TAKE THAT, BUILDING!") and uneducated (we've clearly wasted millions on education).

Turtyturd

'I ****ed your ma'

'Go home da' ...on the college toilet wall. An oldie and not proper graffiti but it makes me laugh every time.

you mean the distinct lack of artistic ability compared to other countries right?? is a plus if spelt right. was very little graffiti in the lanes these houses back onto for 25yr all i recall was 'united ireland', 'horslips' 'u2' and 'shamrock rovers' obviously from an era when such things were respectable, late 70s early 80s. very sporadic - but since about 5yr ago nothing remains untouched be it bus shelters, churches, lamposts.. the abbreviated names ending in o, the dead american rappers etc... erase at your peril it will return with a vengeance in the morning.

but its all reflective of these dumb, degenerate times that will surely surpass all. how low can you go that baz twat used to ask well i think we've reached that now

the purple tin

Saw the old chestnut "I wish my wife was this dirty" written in the grime on a van, below that somebody else had wrote "Trust me, she is".

On a toilet door each in different handwriting;

IRA
Real IRA
Continuity IRA
Provisional IRA
Utterly IRA
I can't believe its not IRA

those inner city ones probs have artistic license for the most part. or some training, at least - take it to the 'burbs and you'll witness the grim reality.

I once saw written on a dirty van

Washed by Stevie Wonder Car Valet Co.

Filthy car parked outside my friend's house: "also available in white".

Car was dark blue.

It is. The TD in question being a former Minister for Education just adds that delicious ironic twist.

I can see that too.... Well done.

Nope. Haven't seen anything good in ages although I don't live in Dublin an I guess that'd be where it'd all be happening.

I just watched "exit through the giftshop". I thought it was excellent and a must see for anyone I interested in street art. It's a shame there isn't more of it going on in ireland but I for one can't contribute because I can't even drAw a straight line! Hahah.

It's impossible to draw a straight line!

--Kaiser--

The best grafitti are to be found on bog walls.

The humorous observation;
This toilet paper is like Chuck Norris, tough as nails and don't take shit off nobody

The hilarious toilet conversation;
I fucked your Mom last night
To which someone else has written under it
Go home Dad, you're drunk

The witty rhymes;
Here I sit, broken-hearted
Tried to shit but only farted

Some come here to sit and think
Some come here to shit and stink
I come here to scratch my balls
And read what's written on the walls

And the philosophising;
God is dead - Nietzsche
To which a wise-ass has replied
Nietzsche is dead - God

What's a tratior? (edit: several people seem to have beat me to this!)

I once seen graffiti on the wall of a house in clondalkin, saying "Irland for the irish". Why is that most graffiti seems to be written by semi literate morons?

One the toilet door in different writing:

Birth. School. Work. Death!

then

"Better than Birth, School, Dole, Death!"

then

"Or Birth, School, Dail, Death!"

Well in fairness that was probably written by a Pole or Latvian so the spelling and pronunciation was correct. I guess he wanted to go home :pac:
