let's talk about talking about those that talk about Queuing
It's all the rage
the thrill of the chase catching a glimpse the rarest of rare animals the lesser known no actual interest in street art, art, pictures, you know the formation of a shape in any format that can then be looked at over time to find an inner peace, other than being told by their 'cool' mate (you know the one, wears combats, fake glasses, looks like a cunt) that it'll make them some money
watching waiting only to appear at the chance to make 1500 quid for a nights work
the Lurker like a skid you can't get out of your favourite undies, is second only to that log you can't flush away, the ever so excited mouthy mingeless oh lordy lord 'praise the print release boys', who's squealing is so high pitched only the finely tuned ears of the gallerist can actually hear it. Their super special skill being able to get excited without one mention of an image they're buying, it truly is a heart warming scene
I heard this piece of advice once. Someone was asking a curator which street artists were going to be big, which ones he should buy work from, which would be the best investment.
ReplyDeleteHe answered "Buy the ones you like, then your investment has already paid off"
You have to wonder at the mentality of those that actually are willing to spend a cold night coralled outside a gallery/shop/for the chance to purchase some bit of high priced consumer crap?
ReplyDeleteThe flippers I can understand their motive for queuing but what does it say for the fanboys?
The only thing I'd lineup for for more than an hour is an organ transplant though I might flip that new heart for cold hard cash to a guy at the back of the line who's passed out on the pavement.
The curator nicked that saying from the Antiques Roadshow Dave. It's what 'experts' always say when they don't know the answer to something.
ReplyDelete'cool' mate do you mean Remi Rough ?
ReplyDeleteWell, I for one will be queueing with a few mates that I'm paying.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to make a fucking mint of you stupid fanboy cunts.
I doubt if he's ever seen Antiques Roadshow as he's German
ReplyDeleteI think he said it because he's been a part of the graffiti scene, traveling around Europe with writers, publishing graffiti magazines, and curating shows for 20 years, and has a deep love and passion for alternative art forms
He wouldn't call himself an expert, and I think he said it because he meant it
but more than likely you're right and I'm wrong, since you always seem to want to point out that everything I say has come from a tv show
I was joking Dave, relax mofo. They have been saying it forever on Antiques shows though. It wasn't me who said the previous thing about the Simpsons by the way...there is actually more than one anonymous person on here believe it or not.
ReplyDeleteNo there's not. There's just four of us, me, dave the chimp, man titties dude and hippy man.
ReplyDeleteSeems like Jax is on every single thread now, saying inane shit like 'man tits' 'I like this print', pretending to be a hippy or else calling everyone tory cunts. The demented old troll is just trying to wind everyone up here and derail this blog because shes got lots of money invested in street art and is scared that the bubble is going to burst. She's like a fucking cancer trying to invade this place and destroy it. Be aware people.
ReplyDeleteno I'm not
ReplyDeleteI know you were
take a chill pill
this is getting confusing
Wanna buy my Eine canvas?
ReplyDeleteJust ignore her, she's a well known loon. Maybe Funky can delete her troll posts or block her IP or something.
ReplyDeleteYeah, maybe he can delete you oh anonymous nob cheese.
ReplyDeleteSee what I mean? Just spouting pure childish nonsense to try to annoy people. She's got upwards of 50 grand invested in street art pieces, so she's desperate to fuck up this blog before it brings the whole shitheap crashing down. Get rid of the bitch Funky, she's like a disease taking over this place.
ReplyDelete"Get rid of the bitch Funky, she's like a disease taking over this place. "
ReplyDeletehard to keep up with all this anonymity over here but i get the feeling that you hate on .info and silky for censorship and not being able to say whatever you like. arent statements like the above advocating exactly the same thing?
There's a big difference between having an opinion and just blatantly trolling to try to fuck up every thread though Dee. If she came on here with a reasoned opinion, then fair enough...but if it's "you're all tory cunts" for the 5000th time...
ReplyDeleteTory cunt!
ReplyDeleteso basically when one anonymous person says something you don't like, they're jax? basically just a witch hunt.
ReplyDeleteas for " so she's desperate to fuck up this blog before it brings the whole shitheap crashing down" - Do you not think this is maybe holding the blog in too high a regard? It's unlikely that a few charlie brooker wannabes are going to bring the world of street art to it's knees.
ReplyDeleteNope, not just when anyone says something I don't like. That happens a lot, but with Jax it's very easy to tell it's her, it's just a moron repeating the same childish insults ad-infinitum. Same as when Jboy came on here, everyone instantly knew it was him. After listening to idiots like that for a while you become attuned to their trolling behaviour.
ReplyDeleteAs for this blog being held in too high a regard...I suspect a lot more people read this than you might think, and the things discussed here take root in people's minds, which they will then go on to disseminate in other places. Just as the street art fanboy brigade initially started small and snowballed over time, so will the backlash against it. The people who have a lot to lose financially from this scenario will obviously fear it, and will do all they can to prevent it from happening.
shut it fuckface, you're opinion is shit.
ReplyDeleteLOL @fear the blog. Quite funny coming from a chap who used to collect and trade his own fair share of prints. Not unlike most "anonymous" on here, including dare I say, our esteemed Dr Funky.
ReplyDeleteThe 2 comments above = more boring and transparent attempts to create infighting here.
ReplyDeleteThey're getting worried, this blog is working Funky!
Full steam ahead.
Hey Barack, I'll buy your Eine canvas, how much my brother?
ReplyDeleteThis blog was interesting for the same reason as a playground fight is interesting - that is its all very exciting until you realise that the person that's on the ground is repeatedly being kicked in the head and isn't responding any more. I haven't a scooby who Jaxs is but the anonymous pricks doing the kicking sicken me.
ReplyDeleteJax is the main 'anonymous' person here calling everyone cunts and generally trying to start trouble to ruin this blog. If anyone should sicken you then it's her. Get your facts straight, because making accusations when you don't even know what's going on leaves you as the one looking like a 'prick'.
ReplyDeletePoster above...do you have a life outside of this forum?
ReplyDeleteYou seem very caught up in something that doesn't really mean anything.
Are you this passionate about everything or is this blog a way for you to release all the tension that comes from being an asshole?
What's it to you dickhead?
ReplyDeletejust slightly concerned for you that's all. You seem to spend a lot of time on here arguing with annonymous people. I don't think it's very good for you.
ReplyDeleteNo need to be rude either.
that's not you is it man titties?
ReplyDeleteAn annonymous person pretending to be another anonymous person.
Genius. You don't quite pull it off though you little mini me fuckwit.
You still here troll? Go suck your boyfriend Jboy's dick and stop trying to create arguments here.
ReplyDeletePOW banksy drop big news tomorrow
