    Is that the MTA's proposed starting point for the new 2nd Ave Subway?

    Its not that wack. The only people writing anything on the walls are people tagging "X3V" in that neighborhood. Gangmembers tagging 13 (for La Eme) and V for Vatos. If people were putting up burners and not just marking territory I think things would be different.

    @bens09: Why doesn't he put up a big free wall then? I'm pretty sure Shepard Fairey could attract some actual bombers.

    @Hamilton Nolan: I'm sure he could afford to put up a big wall in the middle of nowhere. L.A.'s got public and private enterprises that hire teenagers and other less desireables to paint walls regardless of weather or not they're legal. A lot of Mexican businesses paint murals on the side of their buildings ... they use acrylics (basically anything but spraypaint) cause well-meaning workers cover it up. Hell, they even go in and cover up the Venice walls, Belmont is now condos, and more and more pieces are going up on overpasses and in the L.A. river.

    In reply to Obama Street Art: Only 99% Positive
    Which political side, exactly, does #8 represent? And should this particular piece be counted in the 'win' or 'loss' tally? While the other themes are fairly obvious, I'm not sure what a barefoot, flat-eared, soccer uniform wearing Obama is supposed to symbolize. Also, does the fact that he is mimicking the posture of those late-90s Ronald McDonald playland statues have any significance?
    I need ANSWERS!

    @GeraldineHyperion: I was wondering if the barefootedness had some kind of deeper signifigance, or maybe if the "artist" is just really bad at sculpting shoes and just said "aw, eff it." I'm voting for the latter option.

    I'm all for booze in Starbucks, but only for the staff. We used to make daiquiries in the Frappucchino blenders after hours, till some jealous passerby ratted us out. Good times, good times.

    When I was a kid Fight Club hadn't been written yet, so I acted out by imitating the movie Urban Cowboy. How I ever survived those random mechanical bull rides...crazy times.

    I'm really torn about the boozy Starbucks idea. On one hand, maybe it'll keep the annoying kids out, but I like that I can meet up with people at a place that doesn't serve alcohol.

    Oh and ha ha kid - now you're in a fight club for real.

    Hmm, do I go with an Arrested Development reference or a Dash Show backlash of the backlash joke? I remember when Cronkite told me "Kid, once I'm gone, take the low (shady) road every chance you get."

    How cool. Lucky he didn't kill or maim an innocent person. Hey, I get a rash every time I pass a Starbuck, I only patronize them for the loo. But bombs are tricky creatures, and you never know you're you're going to hurt. His age, I guess, is an extenuating circumstance. I have more mercy and pity for kids his age who have to WORK in Starbucks.

    The question I *always* want to ask when I read about people setting up fight clubs and imitating various things in the movie is... jesus, did these people actually see the movie? Especially, you know, the ending?? Did they just watch up to like an hour in and decide they've learned all they need to know about these characters and their motivations?
