An answer posted on another thread a few days ago reminded me of a piece of graffiti I once saw scrawled on a toilet wall. It seems to be a dying art these days, but does anyone have any favourite examples? They were a constant source of amusement in my student days.
I remember that too - think it was pretty much standard on any toilet door. You really have to remember pre-decimal currency to grasp the significance.
The ones I see in the ladies tend to be written by teenagers and are pretty crude - either about blokes' bits, or insulting other girls, or saying someone is gay. Not particularly interesting reading.
You are probably right Boxtops. I'm thinking more of the sort of thing you would find in a Gents' at university. When I was a student there was one cubicle dedicated to graffiti (all carefully written in pencil to make the cleaner's life easier). People would walk past the nearest toilet to head for that particular one, just for a good read and a laugh.
I remember a clever mathematical one in the shearbridge, opposite bradford uni. I can't remember the detail but it had to do with the integral of 1/cabin, and houseboats. maybe someone a bit cleverer than me is familiar with it?
When the door to a men's stall was closed and when the occupant is comfortably seated a long line from the top of the stall door to almost the bottom was noticed in the shape of an arrow with a feathered tail and a point. In small but very neat print at the point end (near the bottom of the door) were the words:
"Beware the Limbo Dancer!"
Think it was in San Diego, here in the U.S. as I recall...
Not familiar with yours, Mushroom. The only one I can remember with a vague mathematical connotation was a limerick which went something along the lines of:
"There was a young student called Paul,
Who had a cylindrical ball.
Its volume in weight
Was the square root of eight
But his pr*ck was five eighths of f*ck all"
