[AteskOne]

[kace91]

I had a really weird conversation.. it was something like

(an old lady)- hey!
(me) - what?
- i know you
- uuuh... really?
- yes... cause ive been recording you all with my camera, an im going to send the videos to the police
- well you are very skilled at recording then, cause its the first time i come to this neighbourhood (it was true)
- seriously? well... then you are good kids, keep painting!

and she went happily.

I still cant understand wtf happened there.

[Zookyook]

i was bombing in west cleveland with my friend and we would go out at like 10pm so we didnt look suspect for walking around in the middle of the night...
across from this bar we did some quick tags at the same time, there were like 15 people outside of the bar and one yelled in a drunken rage "YEAAAA!!! GRAFFITI!!!!" haha... were just like 'ok time to get the fuck home'

^ i was slapping up stickers the other day and i walked thru and intersection and dropped one on an electrical box. some black kid in a car with 2 chicks started yelling about how i was a graffiti artist. he was like "that kid right there! yeah he just put up that sticker! thats some shit graffiti artists do!" i'm just like for real your tryna blow up my spot like that.

hittin a throwup some black bitch yells out the car "boy dont be doin that"

hittin a handstyle homeless guy says "i aint the police man do your thing"

[MoterOne]

The popular "Hey you!, yea you!

[ChemDawggyJohnson]

ive had mad shit said to me. some of the funny ones have been "nice dude" or just getting the head nod of approval from some chill lookin skater type kids, one time this guy got me good, I was moppin a box and I hear "woop,woop" like when a cop just puts his sirens on for a second, i drop the mop and take off down this block , as im takin off i turn around to see if hes on my tail, and there a brotha on a motorcyle posted at a redlight without a helmet laughing his ass off,he screamed "got you bro!", some sound effects he made.... I thought i was fucked. On top of that, im sure everyones heard the "hey you" or "whattya think you're doin!?!" In my head im thinking " catching this tag and bouncing before you try to bust my balls!"

[Fury]

I love doing the woop woop sound to people. I don't care if you're doing graff, driving fast, or in any way breaking the law, I'm gonna do it to you.

I actually haven't had anything happen to me really. Although I was hitting a hand and some guy just walks right by me and doesn't notice. I thought it was pretty funny.

[ChadWarden]

"you two faggots look gay together!"

is the only thing remarkable that's been yelled at me while out writing.

[graffgirl]

i've had a guy say "wassup ma'?" and try to strike up a convo. I grabbed my switchblade and started talkin' to myself like I was crazy.

Anyone out -that- late, who wants to talk, isn't to be trusted. period.

[KAZonee]

this black gurl goes where are da police to lock your ass up ndd i jus say have a nice day miss
this black guy goes this lil motha fuckin ni gga be taggin ndd i jus smiled he says dont be doin that stuff round here ndd wid a gin

[m+s]

[2FNK?]

I was doing my first throwup and some guy was behind a fence that was next to the traintracks and he just stares at me like a fucking deer in headlights. I was like, uh, hello? and he just sat there, so I finished, and pedaled the fuck away fast on my bike.

[unreal180]

i always get goons trying to talk to me when im on the legal,
i just stare at them n carry on

[moze.2]

was painting a few freights, and this homless guy came out of a little shanty house he built into the gound, and started watching me and asking what i thought i was doing, went like this.

him: hey! what do you think your doing?
me: WTF... uhh im painting this train, you live there?
him: yes. its my home. what are you doing here
me: word, im painting freights
him: no you stop that it smells (walks towards me)
me: nah, im gonna paint this and your gonna stay right there or im gonna knock you the fuck out.
him: :*mumbles shit and goes back in his shanty house*

Haha that fucking homeless part made me rofl.

[Baron]

"Put your hands behind your head! Put your fucking hands on your head! (Draws gun) When I tell you to do something you do it the first time, understand?! Roger, we have two in apprehension down here, calling for more back up."

Yeah, that was a fun one.

[MAST]

i caught a huge hollow on a main wall next to this almost empty parking lot. only other car in it was halfway across and it was just some kids. one of them started yelling "oh shit! that's awesome! graffiti!" and when i was done he yelled "thank you!" so i waved.

when i was real young, like in 6th grade i hit up a stop sign in my cousin's suburban neighborhood and some middle aged lady rolled up and said "go do that in your own neighborhood!" and sped off

i've also gotten shit like "do you think that's really art?" or "now was that necessary?" and i usually just nod my head yes

[m+s]

was painting a few freights, and this homless guy came out of a little shanty house he built into the gound, and started watching me and asking what i thought i was doing, went like this.

[CeseOne]

haha i was just tagging this little plastic thing with a marker behind a safeway when this old guy comes out of nowhere, he read this thing on my hoodie that said "1984" and he kept saying "1984, i have your information!" haha. old people are too funny...

[hit-man]

mostly people saying " what does that say"

[Thrice]

"Isn't that illegal?!"
-Course not, now piss off.

[BLUNTEDROUNDTHACLOCK]

spot was behind a garage at like 12 ish
so were not expecting anyone to be in the shop that late so were just bombing this uhual looking truck thinkin nothin to worry bout then...
BAM! motherfucker threw like a wrench or suttin at my boy and was like get the fuck outta here you fucking punks some classic line like that but shit i thought that was some funny ass shit how he must have been like watching us and snuck up on us to get close enough to throw whatever he did cuz that shit was mad loud then ofcourse we just took off runnin like anyone would

[H1P30N3R]

an old woman asked me what my throw means and I have also heard your a toy ... which I agree with

[peng.2]

me-na
then i just followed him and had a convo never saw him again hahaha
and lots of times ive been graffen and someone will just walk past and just look dont say a thing there the mad cunts

[Spark391]

Few years ago, I was doing just some fast shit in a yard, and about a 50-year-old guy with big moustache walks by, talking with his phone and saying "yeah. i got a kid in here creating some design shit" (not the exact words.. but basically the sentence, hard to capture the flow if translated in english, he said it in some kind of extra weird slang terms)..

And once, while I was pieceing in quite big yard (big abaonded area, 6 smaller houses, kilometers of concrete walls etc) there were bunch of guys playing paintball, most of them were working in police. One of them came to talk with me, and told some stories about him writing, said he did it about 15 years ago.. Before of that, bunch of other policemen checked out what I was doing, and they were okay with that. It's funny who you can meet sometimes.

[Speedy]

Spark I don't know where the hell you live but that isn't how the people are that I experienced. That's how cops SHOULD be. People be out murdering other people and they're worried about some fucking paint. I wish a cop would dig my stuff.

[Spark391]

Speedy - i'm not saying that every cop in here is as cool like that, but it was thanks to that that the place i was painting was very abaonded, just a relaxed yard. but if some of those cops would had catched me doing it somewere publicly/ half publicly i would doubt that they would be cool with that. Even if i had rocked a seriously big thing on a wall.. But i feel ya, it's quite stupied. there are lot more serious things than graffiti going on in the streets. Luckily here the fines etc. aren't that big than in America, mostly because the culture hasn't been around for that long we haven't done that much damage, it's a small country etc. Btw, I'm from Estonia.. It's seriously retarded to read news that are going on in the states, I think one kid just recently got 6-9 years? or something like that, very long period, just for tagging. Like wtf.

[opte one]

those woop woop stories are great something similar happned to me and my mates lol

me and my mate were doin throws behind this quite viewable garage,and my mate had his phone playin music and the next song came on was about the ghetto and began with police sirens me and my mate went off runnin an my other mates just stood an laughed

[ViniVidiVici]

I was walking my dog at night and I saw a spot that I wanted to hit, so I had my marker and I started tagging it and a homeless guy comes up and starts asking me about my dog and what kind it is and stuff. hahaha I was still tagging during all of it was the best part.

[pilerskee]

got me laughing

and dont really remember any but one came to mind: fews years ago, hit a handstyle on some wall then walked a few metres forward to hit this other one and i hard some ladys voice.."dont do a tag on my property" and i mumble 'yer..k'...yer so pretty shit but yeh..

[Snot]

I've dropped scratchies on the subway and got the 'you know my tax dollars pay to clean that up?'
but its usually followed by 'no. no they dont.'

[Saiko]

I walk under a bridge that i spotted one day and there's a couple there. I slowly started to take out a can then ask the guy "you dont mind if i ..." he says "go ahed my nig9a"
about 6 min later, they start getting really intimate. So the guy says "Yo, can you leave till i bust a nut?"

[drunkpunx83]

one night me and my boy were tagging street signs and a car comes flying around a turn. we duck and someone yells out my friends last name.

I SEE YOU !@#$%#. that shit shit was mad funny

[Saiko]

Just got in from bombing this long alley. While i was walking, i hear someone about a block behind me. I was bombing a straight line, so i didn't want to stop. I see a good wall and decide to hit a throwie. While i do that the lady gets within ear shot and says-and i quote- "Hey that's pretty nice. Mind doing somthing for me?" i'm an agreeable guy so i say yeah. She says to put up her nick name, wich happens to be like 40 letters long.So, i say i'm kinda low, do you have a shorter one(at this point, i just signed my throw up)? So she says ***** so i do it for her. Then she starts talking so i start making my way home, but she keeps following me. Then she offers me a ciggerette(i'm14 by the way). At this point she's pissing me off cus she's following me and won't shut the hell up.Then she offers me weed. So i figure i'll just take the rails home and hop some gates. She tried to get through them but by the grace of god couldn't. That for me was the most pain in the ass graff lover ever.

[FU7UR3]

old lady: do you think this is funny? it doesnt even look good
me: its graffiti it doesnt have to look good!

i went down the street and right in front of me the cops drove down the street and the lady started to scream
so i ran away and hid in a starbucks caffe

[Norfsuthr]

One night I had an old timer pretend to call the police which was pretty funny. I finished my shit and was walking away when he saw me or something and yelled "hey did you do this? get over here!" I turned around at looked at him and kept walking. "I'm calling the cops!" 3 seconds later I hear "hello I'm on (w/e street) and there is a young man with brown hair jeans and a backpack graffitiing the wall here. Thank you I'll watch where he goes" Halfway through that I looked back at him and he had his hand up to his ear with nothing in it and he turned away so I couldn't see.

Edit:
@tony
I've had rocks thrown at me before. I was painting the side part outside of a bridge and another old guy saw me and snuck up. He didn't say anything, but I heard a rock hit the water to my left and looked around. Didnt see anything and I kept going, heard a few more rocks and poked my head up to look around the street and the guy was looking around on the ground for more rocks.

[JazzEFrAitz]

Just a few weeks ago i was hitting a freight in the evening an i turn around an theres this woman standing in her backyard, arms folded. she say: can i help you? in a southern accent.
I say; probably not unless you have some money or food to give, or if youd like to hold my paint while i finish my character.
she say: ....mumbling...why dont you go home ,or something.
then i think she called the cops, i dont know, i finished and got the fuck out thru a junkyard.
