Worst Graffiti Ever/Best Graffiti Ever
Graffiti art takes a LOT of practice. We can’t all be the next Dalek overnight, and there’s a lot of clumsy property damage between that first can on paint and gallery shows worldwide. It takes tags to make murals and murals validate Krylon krapmeisters — that’ s the yin and yang of it.
Sometimes graffiti’s just some prick with a spray-can. And every now and then, that spray-can lameness is so incredibly lame that it collapses in on itself and becomes a white dwarf of sheer wackness that blazes so brilliantly that it’s a form of retarded genius. It achieves artistic singularity, simultaneously shitty and incredible.
My friend Phil snapped this from a bike trail in Chapel Hill, N.C. Hey man, even Banksy had to start somewhere …
The only way this graffiti could be improved is if there were never a band called “Grateful Dead.”

Do you think they mean “Grateful Dead, bitches”, like, “Yea, that’s right. Grateful Dead up in this mu’fukka.”?
Because without the comma between “Dead” and “bitches”, it sounds like there’s actually a gang of Grateful Dead-loving bitches roaming the streets and they wanted to leave their mark.
Or a third possibility is that the Grateful Dead bitches — complains — too much while on stage.
I’m confused.

it could also have been referring to dead bitches who are grateful.
