Auf Deutsch: Kinder in Berlin, wenn sie einen Zentimeter eines Gebäudes ohne Graffiti sehen
I hear we're tired of American memes so I made this one for the Europeans

Not in São Paulo - it is forbidden to have most types of public-facing advertisement here.

They can't find places to paint? Is there some kind of shortage of walls in Berlin? Someone should get on that.

Unpopular opinion: I find simple tagging and non-obscene graffiti in general less offensive than the spam flyers and company logo/QR code stickers everyone sticks everywhere. At least where I live the latter is also way more common.

Tim Heidecker is American but it's a very German name so I'm going to allow this.

You're not French? Why not? Explain please, I'm curious. Do you hate baguettes or are you naturally humble 🤔

I love bread, that's why I am what I am. From France's best friend with the better bread.

Classic take: name all the Brötchen then?
And if you're France's best friend, why do you keep describing our glorious Peugeot 208 as "Schweinsmiststückswagen für verrückte Weinonanisten"?

Merde , you got me there.
J'ai moi-même eu une Peugeot 207 il y a quelques années . Le siège central à l'arrière était même plus confortable que dans l'Audi A5 de mon ami .

I wish I could criticise your French, but it's flawless. You leave me with no other choice. I have to reluctantly nod my head (not smiling though)

My secret is deepl. I speak French, but flawfully.

My French isn't the yellow from the egg, so that was quite a puzzle...

If we’re talking tags, then I’m with you. But graffiti like this is more art than you find in a gallery nowadays. I’ll take that any time. http://youthincmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Graffiti.jpg

A lot of those nice “graffiti” works are actually commissioned by the building directly. It’s not usually something that someone does overnight. They’ll set up actual scaffolding and cordon the area off while the artist works. Because it’s an actual art piece, not just a random tag.
Obi@sopuli.xyz · 7 pts · 2y
Eh, commissioned pieces definitely exist but you also have some awesome artists doing it the old fashioned way for sure.
Gabu@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 2y
And a lot of them aren't.

I'm not from Berlin but I do live in the city. You absolutely see graffiti this elaborate in the wild. In fact it normally comes in on top of all the random tags and mess if it never gets cleaned up

Every great graffiti artist started with crappy tags and ugly graffities.
JoeBigelow@lemmy.ca · 5 pts · 2y
I read "crappy tags and ugly giraffes" and was confused but also upset that you'd cast shade on the giraffes like that.
driving_crooner@lemmy.eco.br · 3 pts · 2y
Well, every giraffe also starts as a crappy one (not tall at all).

Somehow I doubt that the people vandalizing buildings own any books.
