OK, this is a heavy photo oriented blog today

Ohh the arguments that never end in life. One such eternal question....What is art?

An endless debate mostly of foolishness. But once in a while you see someone who tells it like it is! While this person may not explain what art IS....they certainly say what IS NOT art. I took this shot at Victoria Park Subway station today. I couldn’t agree more. As I have mentioned in previous blog entries I really like good graffiti art. I think its more on the pulse of whats going on in any given area.

Tagging however is NOT art in my opinion. It’s a stupid looking bunch of mish mash that says nothing. It’s about the same as a dog peeing on an area to mark its territory, but lacking the valid personal nature of the urine. Graffiti art takes skill and thought. But enough on my thoughts. Lets see what this person thinks. Don’t hold back now, tell us what you really think!

Now lets compare this piece of tagging stupidness, with some of Toronto’s better graffiti.

Nice! Now that’s art!!

Since we are the subject of not only graffiti, but the specific insult “douche” Lets carry on with that. This insult has been used as I recall since the 80s for certain. And has since been resurrected in the last couple of years again. Personally I always thought it was a hilarious insult.

So just who or what is a douche exactly, and how will you know if you see someone being one, or someone who just IS one?

This once Blockbusters customer seems to have the answer! I ran into this while going to grab a movie one evening, and found it funny enough to grab an image of it.

Well thats all for now! Signing off.
