In Germany, Senior Citizens Love Graffiti

Comments

In the 5 1/2 years I spent over in Germany - Wurzburg, Ochsenfurt, the Franken region, I hardly saw any grafitti at all.
It really wasn't cool there.
The Berlin Wall was a good exception to this though.

I guess it's all in the spirit in which the graffiti was created. A drawing of a butterfly, or: gang member title.

I've always felt that doilies and hard candies were underrepresented in street art.

"Guten Tag" indeed!

Todd, did you send in this article just so you'd be able to write that comment? I bet you did. Don't lie.

That would be telling, Joneser.

Yeah, that wall looks really good. We should totally encourage that in the name of being tolerant or something.

You just know they found the few retarded old Germans with nothing to do to hold up as an example that the older folks are becoming more tolerant of grafitti.
Like maybe you'd find the next SAMO or Blanksy.
Just so you could have this wild headline "Old Germans Love Grafitti.'
Desperate.
