First Installment of 'Shit Written On Walls'

Found in St. John's, Newfoundland.


I took this just round the corner from the 'financial district,' which is more or less a block in the city that has all the banks on it. It reads "MAKE YOUR SELF SCARCE" which just goes towards promoting the stereotype that everyone there is nice. Even their graffiti is more polite. Anywhere else you'd find the standard "FUCK OFF" written unimaginatively next to a giant penis with eyebrows or something.

  1. Perhaps it's an existential comment on human worth: Make yourself scarce, i.e. decrease the supply of the commodity "you" and hence increase your asking price to... I dunno... sell yourself?

    Sucks for identical twins, unable to manipulate the market price without killing the other.

  2. o geez, I'm glad I'm not a twin, since I was just planning on putting myself up for auction on eBay.
