Who up smoking they morebarfo RN
When I grow up, I want to be a skeleton cowboy.
Go ahead and start smoking them then I suppose.
They call that brand cowboy killers for a reason.
Are you a glass half full, or a glass half empty kind of person. 'Cause half of your dream is almost certainly going to happen.
I drank the first half, you can drink the rest.

I’m already a cowboy skeleton, just with a few extra layers.
“Just Do It”
I feel like such an idiot for saying this, but I’ve never thought of ads as environmental vandalism. But that’s exactly what they are.
Vermont still have the roadside ads banned?
In Spain we have an roadside advertising for the Brandy de Jerez made by the Osborne Group, declared “cultural and artistic heritage of the people of Spain.”, the Osborne bull, which you can find everywhere in Spain
I didn’t crop it but its from this https://sidewalkbubblegum.com/aha-graffiti/
I appreciate the sentiment and it feels relevant to my old brain but I realize it might as well be ancient. It’s the same comic now with different proper nouns. Are we doomed?
yeah, probably
Advertising is one of the most prolific environmental pollutants of economic activity, and needs to become as socially acceptable as smoking.
I too call it Taco Hell
needs an edit where the cop is putting up hate symbols
Well the cops job is to enforce the power and “property rights” of the advertisers while making sure they remain in control.
Advertising is the graffiti of the rich.
"People are taking the piss out of you everyday. They butt into your life, take a cheap shot at you and then disappear. They leer at you from tall buildings and make you feel small. They make flippant comments from buses that imply you’re not sexy enough and that all the fun is happening somewhere else. They are on TV making your girlfriend feel inadequate. They have access to the most sophisticated technology the world has ever seen and they bully you with it. They are The Advertisers and they are laughing at you.
You, however, are forbidden to touch them. Trademarks, intellectual property rights and copyright law mean advertisers can say what they like wherever they like with total impunity.
Fuck that. Any advert in a public space that gives you no choice whether you see it or not is yours. It’s yours to take, re-arrange and re-use. You can do whatever you like with it. Asking for permission is like asking to keep a rock someone just threw at your head.
You owe the companies nothing. Less than nothing, you especially don’t owe them any courtesy. They owe you. They have re-arranged the world to put themselves in front of you. They never asked for your permission, don’t even start asking for theirs."

I mean I sort of knew what this guy was about but like damn that is a based statement
