    I think you’re just asking for it now. This column has so much potential and instead it just shits all over itself.

    How is this “shitting all over itself”?
    I think this one is one of the most interesting vandalists.. Sure, the grafitti is illegal and think of the children and all that, but isn’t the ad it’s defacing also illegal?

    I think I’m more disgusted by the splotches of gum all over the sidewalk. Seriously, can’t people find a garbage? Or not chew gum at all?

  • spacejack

    I’m with OhYouKnow.
    Anyway, I think this could be considered legal graffiti.

    OhYouKnow – Just curious, but how many photos of great Toronto street art have you sent to Posterchild recently?

  • OhYouKnow

    I submitted a great photo of some good street art the first week this column was announced. It was never featured and it soon became clear that posterchild wasn’t looking for anything remotely good so I never tired again. I’m mostly surprised because his own work is leaps and bounds beyond anything he features here.

    So neither of you caught the word “recently” then.

    Unless there is a huge backlog of submissions that he is working though and he will eventually get to the one i submitted in the first week, I don’t really see a point.
