Someone apparently scrawled a really dirty line from Catullus (and from the Roman Elegy class) in the girls' bathroom at Cowell. I can't read it, so I'll take the people who were in that class' word for it, but that is just so awesome. So bad, apparently, they wouldn't translate it for me in public.

sed tamen ira procul absit, cum qua nihil recte fieri, nihil considerate potest.

Was that the first line of Catullus 16 by any chance? pedicabo ego uos et irrumabo? Fantastically filthy, that.

Thats in the union toilets too.

Somewhere in the Chemistry department is/was the old:
Science graduates ask: why?
Engineering graduates ask: how?
Arts graduates ask: do you want fries with that?

Nobody wants to read about a single mom trying to raise a kid and keep a job. People want to read about explosions, monsters, and exploding monsters.

When I was in Italy, I was going from Pompei to another town to see Herculaneum. Anyway, every possible surface was defaced by graffiti. Signatures, blobs, pictures, phrases, the whole nine yards. THey'd even blacked out the names of all the station stops (Which annoyed me). However, one creative artist had drawn these really cool pictures, and at one stop they had done a big sign saying "welcome to...." whatever the place was. I know it was graffiti and not official stuff because of the odd places it often was located.

Not the nicest graffiti... but hey it made me laugh! I saw this in a Starbucks toilet in Edinburgh:

(Sign on wall of cubicle) "Please only put toilet tissue down the toilet"

(Scribbled underneath) "So where am I supposed to put my jobby then?"

[angel_kohaku]

On a toilet cubicle door:

Beware of the limbo dancers

I wanna be an anarchist, get pissed, destroy

[thePontificator]

'God is dead - Nietzsche'

Followed by 'Nietzsche is dead - God' in different writing.

[hr]

'I bet you a florin that the chap will turn out guilty.'
'I bet you a dubloon that you win that bet.'

[Colin]

In gents toilets in the physics building: the sign that reads 'please flush after use' has been subtley altered by addition of punctuation to read 'please flush; after, use'.

[Glasgow]

This is on a toilet door in a pub in Glasgow called the 13th note....
''Girls who give blow jobs are fucked in the head''

[Mr Comedy]

Shoreditch high street:

Sign saying - "Bill posters will be prosecuted".

Written underneath "Bill Posters is innocent!"

In a toilet in Dublin:

A^X+B^Y=C^Z

Prove for all integers.

Indeed, a rather wonderful collection of books. This one still makes me laugh every time I think about it.

How Labour will cope. (notice on election poster)
--- Next week: how to nail jelly to the ceiling.

I find that similar sentiments are often required to be expressed when dealing with university administrators.

I quite enjoy the ; 'damn those magic beans" that someone has etched into a desk in school one

"There is only ever one truth. Things are always black or white, there's no such thing as a shade of grey. If you think that something is a shade of grey it simply means that you don't fully understand the situation. The truth is narrow and the path of the pursuit of truth is similarly narrow."

Look at that. Look at that. "Accident Blackspot"? These aren't accidents. They're throwing themselves into the road gladly. Throwing themselves into the road to escape all this hideousness. Throw yourself into the road, darling - you haven't got a chance.

[eagle]

very clever!

In Purdie A:
