#1 Pathetic, but then we already knew that.

You want to know something really scary? Everyone knows I live in a nice mid-sized Chinese city. A couple of new young, foreign residents wondered aloud at the lack of graffiti defacing the city. They said it needed some. Fuckwit hipsters.

#2 Damn. I never get invited to these...

Not to fear: transgressive is still one of the highest compliments that Deitch can bestow. For one of his New York dinner parties, he commissioned a performance piece in which unclothed gay Austrians urinated into one anothers hats while standing on a scaffold above the dinner guests. The work was spectacular, perverse, uplifting, beautifully horrifying, and deeply transgressive, Deitch told The New Yorker.

#3 I once saw some naked Australians urinate on an electric fence. The result was "spectacular, perverse, uplifting, and beautifully horrifying". The language that followed was truly artistic.

#4 Bunyip, and your post was truly poetic. But please, some warning the next time, I'm still cleaning coffee splatters from my monitor.

#5 Nuts. And to think I came here looking for a radical graffiti chick.
