Good graffiti I've just seen:
In one hand: 'Free Palestine'
Underneath: 'I'll see what I can do.'
Apologies if this is an old chestnut that's been around since Nigel Rees was a little boy, but it's new on me. Talking of the old chestnuts, though, I recently saw a van on which someone had written in the dust on the back 'Also available in white.' So what? Well, the van was blue. I can't decide whether this was a deliberate joke, or the act of someone so conditioned to write that phrase whenever he sees a dirty van he's lost any sense of what it actually means. It's funny either way, but different kinds of funny.

All-time favourite, and who knows if it's true, and God knows it's well-known. Outside Peckham station, years ago, a big graffito reading 'Ireland for the Irish'. Underneath it: 'Peckham for the Peckish'.
That virgin complaint letter... come on now, John, 'fess up. That was you.

I used to live in Bristol near a piece of graffiti which implored "races and relions unite for new civisation". I always liked how the enthusiasm trumped the spelling.
