On this website there are several pictures of graffiti, but only one of which I would like to focus on. The "no entry" sign that this website shows has the "o" covered with "inja" and two slanty eyes in the white space. In doing this, the sign says ninja entry... and the sign looks like a ninja. This type of graffiti is silly graffiti, and many people could argue that there is no point to it. The only reason people do silly graffiti is for humor. However, I could argue in my paper that this kind of graffiti still has a purpose and still conveys a lot of information about the author. One who doesw silly graffiti obviously has good humor, and depending on how ironic or what induendos are included can tell audiences what interests they have. Although this genre is easily read and not usually very colorful, the words itself and creations are enough to create a giddy feeling.
