As you may have noticed, we we're offline this morning. This was caused by the "Thanks" plug-in going rogue and using up way too many server resources. This triggered an automatic suspension by our hosting provider as they thought it was a malicious attack. The "Thanks" plug-in has been disabled, hopefully temporarily so I can determine if that was indeed the cause, and take steps to prevent it from happening in the future.
I apologize for the disruption and for any confusion that may have caused.

Re: The Street Art / Graffiti / Tagging thread
I am loving all the Simpson's graffiti! That is too cool. Here is some I came across today.

Saw this on vacation and thought about this thread. This was across the street from Burial Hill Cemetery in Plymouth, MA. Not sure I understand it and not sure I am supposed to.

Wow. Small world. Guy from Alabama takes a picture of graffiti art in Massachusetts and someone from Pittsburgh, PA (mainly) recognizes it! I honestly would not have noticed it if not for this thread. It’s really quite the juxtaposition given what is right across the street and who all is buried there.yinzburgher wrote: ↑Mon Aug 19, 2019 4:14 pmHere it was before those girls from the Shining showed up to creep everybody out.Split-Time wrote: ↑Mon Aug 19, 2019 3:52 pm Saw this on vacation and thought about this thread.

Also looks like the sidewalk has been improved since the painting and is handicap accessible. Good work Plymouth public works.

Re: The Street Art / Graffiti / Tagging thread
The artist's Instagram username is printed very small on your photo of the mural so I looked it up to see what else was on his page. I like it. He uses those bright pink and purple colors in a lot of his work. There is a ton of graffiti and murals near me. I've always known that but I'm definitely more acutely aware of it since this thread. And I kind of enjoy stopping to take pictures of it and looking at it a little closer than I normally would. He also had this on his IGSplit-Time wrote: ↑Mon Aug 19, 2019 8:25 pmWow. Small world.

I like it bc it reminds me of when I used to smoke. If I misplaced my lighter, I would grab one of those big grill lighters with the flame turned all the way up. A bit overkill. When you pull that thing out of your pocket to light a cigarette, people look at you funny. When I took it with me to the bar people were more likely to come up and ask for a light.

A few years ago, one of the bars a few blocks away had this mural painted on the side of the building.

Someone a few streets over from me has some stoop art. Didn't even know it was a thing.

Reykjavik has a great street art scene, presumably most or all are sanctioned by the city.
Had to see Krog Street Tunnel in Atlanta when visiting. Couldn't get good photos in the tunnel itself, but these were in the neighborhood. St. Julian's (maybe) in Malta Florence, Italy Last but not least, near Vatican City in Rome
