This might seem petty, but this issue is really chapping my ass. It’s not too often that the local utility company does something above and beyond. I feel the beautiful paintings they have contracted out for their ugly utility boxes are wonderful. What I find frustrating is the behavior of the fucks who deface them. What annoys me even more is the fact that they were painted to deter people from defacing them. An artist, no matter how novice you are, never defaces another’s work. There are lots of things to tag, just stay the fuck off those coolly painted boxes. I probably paid for those indirectly.

I agree with this one. Whoever thought up painting the boxes was a genius, and they really brighten up the city. Don’t deface what makes this city special.
City council came up with, and paid for the idea.
Taggers are just losers anyhow.
A bitch I can get on board with.
Taggers should just start twittering if they think people care where they’ve been.
Taggers are like cockroaches – stomp on one and a thousand more scuttle by.
Anyone who would deface something some has spent a lot of time and effort in creating… is no friend of mine!
I do like those little utility boxes!
It’s such a shame when you drive/walk past one of those cute little utility boxes and it’s ruined because some little cocksucking shit-for-brains tagger who has some sort of entitlement complex spray painted all over it.
I’d love to catch one of those little fuckers, grab their spray paint and paint their ugly ass faces with it.
Anyone seen the one with the raccoon and the toothbrush/toothpaste on Main St in Dartmouth? It’s my favourite 🙂
I think taggers just want the attention…………like you’re giving them.
If taggers want attention, we should give it to them when we apprehend them. A public caneing, just like they do in Singapore. Funny, how they do not have much a problem with tagging/grafitti.
