Talent?
A fuckin downer throwing a bucket of paint could make something more inspiring than that shit.
Such as yourself, you fucking derro?
Do a design and post it up you stupid cunt. Then, if you can possibly pull off something so good, buy a few dozen cans of spray paint, gain access to a high security train yard, and put it up with security guards looking for you. If you dont have the balls to do that, do it in your backyard. I guarantee you will never produce something as good.
There is so many fucking points against me that i cant even rememeber what everyone has said, but ill try n get to a couple of them
Firstly, dont believe everything you hear on the news about the incredible waste of tax payers money cleaning graffiti off. THey claim 250million a year on trains alone. Let me give you a hint, it takes about 30seconds with a hose to remove a panel. If this wastes 250million dollars a year, then blame ineffective government. Blame the fucking government for wasting billions on cross city tunnels and unused city - airport train links. How much does it cost to fund a war? A hell of a lot more than it does to fund an anti graffiti team to walk around a train with a hose. I bet if Picasso or Monet did an artwork on a train every single person out there would be praising him for his genius and innovation. Why do you get any more pissed off at a COLOURFUL self expression than a blank, plain, stone cold and unindividual wall, a canvas for the montonous and detached society which we live in today?
I dont remember comparing the talent required to produce a panel to 'smart', maybe I did, correct me if im wrong. There is a different kind of intelligence here, to do with accessing places that most people would never work out how to gain entry to, to use paint cans in such a way that it doesnt look like crap, to sketch it up in the first place. Too bad if you cant look out the window, enjoy the view from the outside, and what will you see through the window anyway? A modern, industrialised landscape, a traffic jam, a pollution filled sky? Immerse yourself in your thoughts on the journey, or sit in a different fucking carriage. How often does it happen anyway.
Once again, I dont recall saying its allright to commit crimes, but in the society we live in, I think you need to prioritise, and then think about your own experience. And you class all of the eastern suburbs as being of a higher socio economic background, yet there are pockets of poverty in all suburbs, there are housing commisions and kids without a future in all suburbs. Despite this, most of the clothes they wear are fake, or at the best, stolen from a corporate monopoly such as David Jones. But then, i never said they are all from out west, or poor, disadvantaged people. There are instances otherwise, as with any social group.
Litany, you can just shut the fuck up, that last argument made no sense. I still can't work out where you stand on that point. And the last reply before this, i forget who by, but i think it was by someone with a name as original as "princess something or other", I won't dignify that with a response.
Now for another round of replies pointing out every minor problem with my argument/post/point of view..........
