Can we get better graffiti in this state?

We’ve all seen them, they’re everywhere. Those same three symbols on overpasses, road signs, buildings, etc. Not even saying spend thousands on sandblasting just because that’ll never happen or if so it’ll take years of tax, time, and road work. We just need a vigilante with a can to cover or even make something better.

I find it sad that this guy spends his time doing this.

What if it's not just one guy?

Could you imagine a group of people keeping inventory of their tags and getting together to compare notes?

We do have better graffiti here in CT, unfortunately all the good writers don't spend their time hopping out of a car on I-91 at 4am to write VEO on every highway sign, overpass, newspaper vending machine, wall, cat, dog, and dunkin' donuts restroom walls. All the good CT writers play on the RR tracks.

I always thought of the VEO thing as a shitty low effort Toynbee tiles style project. So there was a small part of me that enjoyed the bit of mystique to it. But at the end of the day it’s just shitty spray paint and isn’t really THAT interesting, now especially since it’s just not very underground.

Highly reccomend checking out the Toynbee tiles saga, that’s a pretty damn neat and creepy long term, wide ranging form of vandalism.

I think you're confusing homeless symbols for graffiti.

Can we just not have graffiti? It ruins everything, why would we promote more of it?
