Quick, pull down that buffed billboard, get it to Sotheby's, and let the bidding begin!

I love the creative energy of much graffitti, but I hate the utter presumption and selfishness of street artists who think they own every blank surface in sight.
Painting over an outdoor. Wow. That really showed them who's boss huh! Hey, maybe next Super Bowl you guys can come over and paint my TV screen and block out the ads that suck.
If ads suck so bad, how'd you know where to buy your Krylon?
You're right Anabelle, how could they be so presumptious, those rascals, especially knowing full well its the corporations that actually own every blank surface.
And logo, you novice, that's house paint not Krylon.

well. they don't either but *someone* does. and more often than not a corporation will *ask* or *pay* to use the space. how often do graffiti artists do that? ever?
And, as we all know, 'ownership' is the only thing that matters when one is discussing what's right or wrong. As in, just to pick a random example, slavery...
.....If the artist gets caught, he pays a fine and possibly goes to jail. The corporate advertiser just hires the billboard company to put up a new one, pumping more money into the economy. Guess who profits on this conflict?
otherwise known as \"the conscious art of advertisement removal\".
