The plywooded corner of 10th St. and 4th Ave. continues to become more interesting since the plans to build a boutique hotel here evaporated.
Some time ago, someone wrote a series of messages that are anti-Bloomberg...
...anti-Marxist (and not anti-Muslim)...
...and anti-psychiatry. The messages seem to be spreading.
Other people have responded in their own notes. Some simply call the writer an "Asshole," others offer their own opinions. It's the old-school analog form of the blog-style comment thread.
There are even grammar and spelling police--my favorite kind. One corrects the spelling of Frances Farmer's name and the myth that she was lobotomized, a fantasy perpetuated by the 1982 movie Frances, starring Jessica Lange.
Most recently, into the monochromatic montage walked this interloper, a wheat-pasted nude with black ski mask and erection spouting floral ejaculate.
I've also been enjoying these intensified messages on that plywood.
ReplyDeleteHowever, if this was really like a blog-style comment thread, somebody would have already written: "If you don't like it, then move back to [insert insulting state name here]."
Someone needs to start a band called Floral Ejaculate
ReplyDeleteI'm waiting for a plywood graffiti message thread where someone writes "First!"
ReplyDeleteFloral Ejaculate is not bad, not bad at all. but i'm thinking drag queen name, not band.
ReplyDeleteGrafitti with an agenda. Strangely comforting.
