Graffiti goes back A LONG TIME... Is it all vandalism? Street art? Religious artifact? Historical cultural record? The answer is all of that and more! We survey graffiti from its (possibly) childish origins to modern tagging and our ceaseless human effort to be seen in an unfeeling world. Plus, an delicious MouthGarf Report and another round of I See What You Did There!
