From: Little Hawk The last time I stopped at the late night donut shop in Schomberg, Ontario, the washroom walls were full of various obscene graffiti with comments about lewd sexual acts and insults directed at "fags", etc...the usual, in other words. Well, I stopped there again last night and discovered that they had recently repainted the walls. Since they did the only new graffiti to show up was these 2 statements... "Bush is a fucking idiot!" and... "Fuck You, Cheney!" They looked to have been written by 2 different people to me. Seems like the US administration is growing less popular by the day here in Ontario... ;-) I am surprised no one thought to mention Condoleeza Rice anywhere. We are accepting refugees from the USA, but please don't ALL move up here at once, okay? |

From: Stilly River Sage It's difficult to make grafitti stick to these new polymers they make bathroom stalls with. People still try, but those who work until they finally make a mark never seem to in the end have anything to say. SRS |

10 Sep 05 - 09:50 AM (#1560413) Subject: RE: BS: Latest bathroom graffiti in S. Ontario.. From: Stilly River Sage The contractors measured wrong when they tore out and rebuilt the bathroom on the floor of the library where I work. The largest stall is palacial, but they didn't move the sink counter over to compensate for the ADA measurements so the other two stalls are now incredibly cramped. On top of it, the MEN who installed the paperholder and trash box OBVIOUSLY didn't try sitting on the pot to see if they were putting those appliances in a good place. They weren't. There's bound to be some disgruntled grafitti just because of those mistakes. SRS |

From: Jeremiah McCaw (Way) back when I was at Sheridan College, the custodial staff took great pains to scrape down and repaint the bathroom cubicle doors (the Board of Regents was due for an inspection/visit). This was taken as both an insult and a challenge by the creative types in the photography depsrtment. No sooner had the fresh paint dried than a very formal-looking notice was inked upon the door: "The management wishes to apologize for the actions of an overly zealous former employee in eradicating the creative efforts of the student body. Please start over." |
