I apologize in advance for the awful formatting of this blog. Blogger is not very user-friendly or intuitive.
Anyways... You know how everyone holds within themselves the innate dream to just drop everything they're doing and write 'shit' on the wall? Well I guess some people are dreamers, and some are doers.
I've recently moved to a new neighbourhood called Zizkov, and have been walking around a LOT over the past couple days, thus exposing myself to a great range of graffiti themes. All of the forthcoming photos were taken over the course of a two-hour walk.

The first two tags which inspired me to take out my camera that day. Short, sweet, well put (not to mention punctuated):

The Hell's Angels confirming their presence:
And what the hell, how about some nine-year-old millenium paranoia to round out an excellent walk:
