i quote (not current btw)
Tony Blair has proposed tough new laws to stamp out graffiti. But London and other cities could "legalise" it with plans for giant graffiti murals.
...
"Companies use graffiti imagery all the time to promote things to young people," says Mr Pelling. "We have to accept that graffiti is part of their lives. So, I think graffiti walls are needed and, if they are going to mean anything, they need to be in prominent places."
reading this article in whole promotes graffiti as an almost romantic artform, created by unsung, talented individuals. here is a sample from up my street (not sure why, but its simplicity always makes me smile, sorry bout poor mobile foto)

some of this cool stuff must exist somewhere (but not here!) ive showed you mines, show me yours!
ps. i like banksy

I guess you are right, but to really participate in this thread I would have to capture something that I find particularily funny or thoughtful. 99.9% of the grafitti I see is retarded, and not worth my time, save one. About 5 years ago while taking a piss in a spinning bathroom at Ethel's Lounge in Waterloo, I spied a tiny bit of scrawl at eye level when I turned my head left.
"JIMBO RIDES THE CAREFREE HIGHWAY" is a somewhat curious message to convey to random pissers, but every time I piss there I look for this little truth. To ensure that future pissers also get this message, I touch it up with a knifetip whenever it fades.
RIDE ON JIMBO, RIDE!!!!!

there are at least eight separate reasons i felt compelled to take a picture of this work in the stall of one of my favorite local bars. it tells the story of a pigeon toed rocker unloading his veiny cock on (i'm guessing by his look of despair) an innocent bystander, while somehow creating more questions than answers.
