Alright, im pretty fucking pissed right now and i figured id just share this with everyone for no particular reason.
Okay, let me start off by saying that througout most of the time I've been painting I mainly stuck to walls, I always heard of fr8s and shit but I never really took it seriously, then sometime about a year ago I realized that a wall might get seen by a few people and maybe a writer or two, but a fr8 rolls all over, rarely gets buffed, writers LOOK FOR THEM, and compared to some realms of graf they have potential to be a little less stressful, plus it tends to stray from the "thug element" that i never really found too appealing. I decided that if i was going to try and get into this I would want to find out as much about it as possible, I learned the basic shit that any idiot should know (dont go over numbers, clean up after yourself, dont kill every car in a row, dont kill cars with outlines and throwups, dont hit shit in the area like walls and shit, basic shit...)most of this stuff is common sense so its not hard. I also liked that theres alot of fr8 heads who seem to carry themselves with some sort of intelligence and not merely a "destroy everything" attitude.
However, I live in an extremely shitty area for fr8s (Lawn Gyland...) I have been looking for months now and driven many a mile of track and come to the following simple conclusions: There are no yards here
Fast forward 2 weeks to the other day: By now I've been flicking what cars have been coming through and have been checking this thing out, Today, i go back to see if the box is still there, i roll into the parking lot and what do i see? the ENTIRE FUCKING SIDE OF THE CAR is covered in shitty outlines and tags, ALL OVER, TOP TO BOTTOM, OVER THE NUMBERS, CANS LYING EVERYWHERE, everything! the box was the only thing in there and i was going there with the intention of cleaning the other cans up that i mentioned before, but why bother now? some fucking ASSHOLES blew up my spot, im so fucking pissed right now, why would you do that? if your looking for respect from fr8 heads id think that most would consider these dicks to be idiots for covering a perfectly clean r-box top to bottom with shit outlines, fuck...its just frustrating, i try to do something, and it seems like i might finally be able to do something and shit like this happens...they couldve at least taken the time to do try to do a piece in the time it took them to do a million small pieces of shit...i hate using the term "toy" but this isnt even "toy" its just stupid, im seriously considering going back there, getting the names of the assholes off the train (i didnt even look i just saw it was covered and left) and (if they do have any "ups" around...)going over anything and everything that they will ever do to drive them out of graffiti, i dont want to have to deal with assholes like this at all and i dont think the scene needs them either, but then again i suppose some would tell me that i shouldnt judge, but im just frustrated right now.
sorry to anyone who actually read this shit...
