Stupidly, this probably makes the city clean it faster.

There was this road adjacent to the local university campus in my city that was littered with potholes. The city said it was the campus' responsibility, the campus (rightly) argued it was up to the municipality.

Things were at a standstill until, one night, this guy I knew went out and spray-painted massive dicks around each and every one of those potholes. The city then finally fixed them within weeks.

Nothing gets done until it bothers those in charge. Same as it ever was.

And as time goes on and more dirt appears, you can do a cool layered look.

Waiting for your layer to cure like a real artist, just a week more or so and it should be okayish!

It was all the rage maybe 10 years ago, on the pavement, "printing" publicities...

Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.
