I hear we're tired of American memes so I made this one for the Europeans

Auf Deutsch: Kinder in Berlin, wenn sie einen Zentimeter eines Gebäudes ohne Graffiti sehen

Companies in any city when a square millimeter of building isn't covered in advertisements
- Not in São Paulo - it is forbidden to have most types of public-facing advertisement here.
  
  Gods damn that sounds lovely

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.
- Yes! Also there are some of the murals are really good

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

Auf Deutsch: Kinder in Berlin, wenn sie einen Zentimeter eines Gebäudes ohne Graffiti sehen
En français : oeufs surprise au chocolat dans le beignet, quand elle un centimètre un bâtiment sans graffiti voir
(Première puissance économique européenne, vraiment ?)
- Space before question mark: french confirmé
  
  You're not French? Why not? Explain please, I'm curious. Do you hate baguettes or are you naturally humble 🤔
  ETA: hon hon hon
- That translation is illegal in the USA.
- My French isn't the yellow from the egg, so that was quite a puzzle...

Same thing goes with pooping dogs on Paris sidewalks

Isso!

Berliner Mauer moment

And the graffiti doesn't even look good
- 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.
  
  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.
  
  You guys have some shit galleries

Also goes for Rome
- I thought it was just all the roads

If you spray graffiti on public walls and get caught, then the punishment should be to pay for it and additionally police should come to those people's home and spray everything there with graffiti. The books, the furniture, the clothing, the television, the walls, the windows, all their personal belongings. This would maybe teach them a lesson to respect other people's belongings 😊
- "If you post a shit reply like @Kra, police should burn your house down"
  See? Other people can also write insane things.
- Somehow I doubt that the people vandalizing buildings own any books.
