Graffiti mostly sucks (where is that cap stone)
and the people who do it make the whole world just a bit crapper.


This capstone is at The Giants Graves on Arran

I don't think the marks make the world crapper.

Someone took the time to make these.

A hundred years ago or five thousand, they all say "I was here".

There is a massive panel (not on TMA or listed anywhere AFAIK) with 18th and 19th Century graffiti near the King's Caves on Arran. It is half buried near one of the lesser caves. It has some much older marks too. All of it screams "I was here".

I like it.

I think it makes the world less crapulous.
