What is the most "thought-provoking" graffiti you have seen at at bus stop?
Posted by QuietShadowLDK@reddit | AskUK | View on Reddit | 342 comments
My local bus stop has "Knok at [nearby address] to see a reatart" scratched into the metal shelter.
Absolute poetry.

I always liked the 'give peas a chance' bridge over the m25 was top notch, till covid ruined it!
craggsy@reddit
In the North West we had multiple bridges with THE PIES written on them, main ones were above M6 and M57, they were ruined by anti vax graffiti during covid
HesitantBrobecks@reddit
Idk if this is lowkey doxxing myself, but a nursery near me had "they live" with a little devil stick figure thing above it for my whole life - if not longer. Then, anti vax idiots put covid themed graffiti on either side of it, and when the council or nursery painted over the stupid graffiti, for some reason they also decided to paint over this 16+ year old cool piece of history. I'll never forgive them for that!!!

HELCH
Proof-Rip-437@reddit
What does it even mean?
Responsible_Wall6834@reddit
HELCH is the name/tag of a prolific graffiti writer. He often uses a paint roller to apply the tag so, as well as being all over London, is easy to spot and recognise.

Idont_think@reddit
How does one even achieve this?
Jetstream-Sam@reddit
Yes, surely it would only be possible to do so with three limbs, one is necessary for the wanking. Barring some kind of fleshlight setup or a doll or something.

TheNorbster@reddit
It’s been 6 hours bruv, how’s the science going?
Idont_think@reddit
That’s what I was thinking? Is it still wanking though if you aren’t actually doing it yourself? I’m very confused on the rules surrounding such activities. Very curious though, always up for tips.
ManInTheDarkSuit@reddit
You're always up for just the tip or always up for tips about wanking? Are you up for many tips whilst wanking? Are you wanking at the thought of tips? Are you curious about tips whilst you wank?
I'll shut up now. My brain has melted into a puddle and I'm talking bollocks.
Idont_think@reddit
Yes.
Jetstream-Sam@reddit
I guess any solo sex act counts as masturbation? A realdoll or fleshlight isn't really an active participant, so that would probably still count
I suppose though if it gets to the point where there's sex robots, that might be a blurrier line. Though I think making them sentient would probably just be cruel.
Idont_think@reddit
Fair point. Okay, so the on all 4 limbs wanking must involve a device or doll like you suggested.
Love that last sentence and agree, but now I have another question! If we did make them sentient where do we draw the line at rape and slavery?
Jetstream-Sam@reddit
I guess if they are sentient, then buying and selling them would be slavery. I imagine the companies making them would just deny they're really sentient though and keep selling them. And if you're using them against their will, that would be rape morally, but not legally until the law recognises that robots are people. If they even bother changing the law at all.
If the tesla robots do become sentient and start refusing to do stuff though, I can see Musk being enough of a prick to either lobotomize them or install some pain receptors so you can force them to make you a sandwich.

For about 30 odd years there was a bit of graffiti on a wall opposite the East Stand at St James’ Park. It said ‘Petrol’s Dear, but cheap to burn Hammers’. It was in reference to a match when Newcastle were at home to West Ham in 1980. The previous year several Newcastle fans had been stabbed outside Upton Park, so in retaliation when West Ham next came up here, a petrol bomb got thrown at the West Ham fans. Pretty grim on both sides tbh. I was 1 at the time, but it’s a well known incident, probably because of the graffiti. We don’t really have beef with West Ham anymore tbh, but that graffiti was there until around maybe 5-6 years ago.

Not at a bus stop, but I coach kids aged 5-10 in a sports hall where teens have drawn a number of cocks and balls. Although i don't agree with graffiti, I have added little dots to the centre of the balls, and 'smiles' under the penises to make them into smiley faces, so the graffiti is a little more family-friendly now.
A couple of weeks ago, a kid said to me "I see faces like this everywhere! Is it a certain cartoon character?"

Not a bus stop but a public urinal: "While you're reading what I've put, you could be pissing on your foot"

Reminds me of the classic urinal wall graffiti:
'why look up here when the joke is in your hand?'

Not a bus stop, but on some of the trains leaving Bristol temple meads you can see this graffiti across the side of a nearby building:
"Don't let one nice day ruin your shitty life".
AcanthocephalaOk3991@reddit
"Name" (scribbled out) "sucked my cock!" The name was replaced with someone else's (called "tiddy" i believe). There then followed a reply by said tiddy, and a very healthy debate about who did and who didn't, and who's best qualified to handle a cock anyway? A woman or a man? Etc... I don't live there anymore, but the debate may still be going on. Maybe tiddy has turned gay? Who knows?

Not a bus stop but the one I can’t forget was in the gents’ toilets at Euston station: “My wife wears a rubber prick”. Sorry, I’ll leave now.

I enjoyed (on the boarding that goes up around building sites) “More yuppy flats here please”
I also once heard of [in a posh(ish) part of a university town] “I came, I took acid, my parents bought me a flat”

There was a legendary bit of graffiti on the side of a church in my town that lasted decades. It said "Jesus: No Name is Higher" and someone scrawled 'Dave' just above it.

"Free da herb" in Huddersfield across the valley on a wall, as you go West towards Manchster on the A62. I think it's in Slathwaite. Not particularly thought provoking, but it's been there forever and I love seeing it.

In a wine bar toilet not a bus stop, written above the door: "Once more unto the breach"
As an introvert on a rare night out it felt like a bit of a battle cry to get back out there and face the crowds

Not a bus stop but possibly my second favourite of all time. My favourite was on the toilet door at the local uni/live band venue and simply said “Gavin Onions”
I’ve thought about this a lot and will probably name my next dog this. Is it a pseudonym or is there really a Gavin Onions out there?

There was a bus company on Merseyside in the 90s whose buses had the following sign about halfway down the bus:
TICKET INSPECTORS OPERATE ON THIS BUS. MANAGEMENT WILL PRESS FOR HEAVIEST PENALTIES AGAINST OFFENDERS.
On most of them, someone had diligently scratched off the lettering so it read "MANAGEMENT WILL PRESS HIS PENIS AGAINST OFFENDERS"

In Brighton for years when Bush Jnr. was president someone wrote "Bush is another word for c*nt" on a wall. For some reason the council just painted out the offending word and some wag replaced it so it read "Bush is another word for shrub."
I passed it on the bus every day for years and it always made me smile.
