Woo Hoo!! no more cracked-out WaMu commercials!!
Not since WaMu has
Been assimilated by
JPMorgan Chase
Just a year ago
WaMu mocked “stodgy bankers”
Now, that’s who owns them…
Oh, the irony!
Bye bye Starbucks-like branches
Back to suits and ties
I thought there were a couple better captions than this one Still a funny picture. Really clever of the artist.
It would have been better if they did WaMu’s stock price instead of the Dow, but okay.
Chico Represent!
ah i THOUGHT that wall looked familiar… hahaha
Heh, same here.
I totally used to live in Chico and when I saw that I was like “NO WAY! That HAS to be in downtown.” Glad IM” not the only one
win!
Best…. Graffiti… EVER!
omg lol
funny side of the credit crunch
never thoght id see intelligent graffiti
most are just names … spelt wrong too
Hey Skates… never thought I’d see someone say something intelligent about graffiti… and I still haven’t.
And “most are just names” huh… I guess some people only read things that are in picture form.
And by the way “omg lol” is not exactly proper spelling either. Try getting out sometime and actually writing on something besides a computer screen.
Those aren’t names. They’re called tags, and they aren’t meant to be spelled the way a name is. A tag is an artistic way of signing your name, or any other word. Even just tags are down right awesome if done right. It’s art.
Also, I feel bad you haven’t seen any good intelligent graffiti. There’s a lot of it out there.
“A tag is an artistic way of signing your name, or any other word. Even just tags are down right awesome if done right. It’s art.”
i disagree with your definition of art. also, signing your name should be left to the __________ on contracts.
yeah, theres a rush when you scribble stuff on walls.. but to boring old sadist adults, your just a child with a crayon. get to bed Rat Bag!
I’m in agreement with Tch here. There is a lot of graffiti out there that could be classified as art in the abstract sense of the word. The time and skill that goes into some of the ‘wall scribblings’ is more than most people could do, and it speaks for the artist who isn’t simply using spray paint to write ‘Keith wuz herr’ on a railroad car.
Spelt? It’s a grain. Spelled incorrectly.
“This is more focused than most.”
Yeah, it’s also photoshopped more than most.
Sad really, that people can’t just appreciate a LOL as such. Not sure why people would insist on saying this is ” ’shopped”. It’s not even partisan!
But, but.. I thought jealousy WAS partisan? I hate it when people have to proclaim something as ’shopped. What’s the difference anyway? If it was photoshopped, it would still be original!
Especially when you’re thinking in terms of graffiti, the intent is still the same if it was created on a wall or on a computer.
Wouldnt photoshopping something be electronic grafiti? My my…
Even “shopped” work can be art. But in this case it wouldn’t matter either way. My question is, why would someone want to spend that many hours photoshopping so many tongues onto so many McCain pics. LOL
OCD? That would be the only logical conclusion..
CDO. OCD isn’t alphabetical and bugs us weird types
Why isnt this jacket in alphabetical order?
Wha?
The zipper! It should be on the bottom!
Lighten up.
Jeez, You guys are so unhip I’m amazed your bums don’t fall off.
Real or shopped, who cares?
Still clever.
There are a lot of people in Chico who are political and do a lot of stenciling. (I used to be one of them when I lived there) so I’m not surprised to see this.
Brilliant idea!
Who gives a rip if it’s ’shopped? It’s freakin’ hilarious, get over your jealous self. Just because someone else was clever and funny doesn’t mean you get to degrade their art.
Though I do agree the caption is rather lacking, the picture itself is priceless.
I loved seeing this in person, sadly it was painted over by the next day. I really love that the red line goes into the drain…
Quite amusing.
It most certainly was not photoshopped by the way.
Where was it? (Please don’t say “Washington Mutual”!
)
Chico California
County of Butte
walking by it it was obviously planned, and done by a group. Well done none the less
More Specifically, the corner of Main and Second Streets in lovely downtown Chico.
Not Photoshopped – I saw it too, thought about taking a pic but am too lazy.
Oh this what happens when Chico California has a tiny riot. It’s quite real, and made everyone walking down the street laugh.
at first glance i thought this might have been a banksy piece. whoever it was, it’s awesome.
“In an effort to save paper, WaMu is now posting the latest trends on the walls.”
Holy crap now that should have been posted with the picture. Love the comment!!!
Epic graffiti is, well, epic.
WOW GRAFFITI WITH TASTE! Epic!
the artist is ABOVE (www.goabove.com)

Hey everyone- I thought you might like to see this. It’s the same WaMu graffiti, but taken from a different angle. This one really shows the red line going down the drain. And yes, I took these photos in Chico, CA. (Wish I knew who painted the graffiti so I could give them props- I hope they see this photo someday, and laugh!)
