Source of Inspiration: Knives and Words


When I first made this blog, I wasn't sure what type of font to use. After looking at a lot of bathroom graffiti, I knew that I wanted something that looked like Sharpie writing, since so much of the graffiti was done with it. The title, "The Writing on the Wall" is a font called Permanent Marker, which is perfect for this blog. However, I wanted my text to be readable, so I use Arial for the rest of the blog.

This particular graffiti was a response to someone else who wrote something about using kindness to get their own way; it has since been scrubbed off of the stall. The reply, "knives are more efficient" remains. And even that was edited to "words are more efficient." That's what happens when English majors graffiti. Now, I see how knives are efficient in an obvious way; so did Caesar. But it was the words that he spoke that got him killed. He was kind of an ass, and what he said really pissed off a lot of people. So sorry English majors, but knives win.
