I like to sit in the library at school in those little wooden booth-desks they have lining the walls. Real hermit-style. (In fact I wrote a poem about it once--which uses the phrase I've included in the title, so don't any of you writer-types think about stealing it.) And without fail, there's always something written or scratched into the walls of those cubicles.
I've gotten to sit at many of those seats throughout the library. And I've seen quite a few things decreed there. (And, judging by this, there's quite a few incredibly dumb, racist students attending this university.) What makes a person vandalize something? Do they think they're enacting wide-scale social change by doing this? I hate to break this to you all but the Kennedy family does not visit the Queens College library, there has not been one Rockefeller in the bathroom stall of the second-floor men's room of Hunter College, North Building, and W. H. Auden does not rise from his grave at night to wander into the bathroom of King Hall to see you misquote him on that tile right above the third urinal (on the right).
So I thought, as a community service, I would take the time to respond to some of the queries that have been left for more important folks.
How do you tell someone you can't stand that you don't love them?
I'd think this one would be pretty easy. Try running them over with a car. If they don't get the hint by then, back up.
Kill all Niggers and Jews
Apparently the most ethnically diverse borough still needs more humanities classes. (Or a man with a shotgun. I haven't decided which.)

Thank you. You're delightful...
I fucked Pamela. Pamela fucked me. 9.6.06
Good for you. I'm glad charity is still alive and kicking today.
Yea, I fucked her too. She's got big titties and no ass.
Well, we can pretend, can't we?
Shut the fuck up
Make me.

My personal favorite is the QC library masterbator (yes that's right we had one and the cops on campus were too fat to catch him). But really he's probably a hard one to beat (oh double, double entendre!! how does she do it!)

John . . . You are delightful. You've made me laugh yet again. I think that people who vandalize public property are going through some inner struggle with mediocrity. . . they know that they are but little people with little minds, so they spew their filth and nonsense in an effort to gain some notoriety, if only in their own heads . . . I can't decide if it is sad or funny. I think I'm leaning towards sad.

...I wonder if those vandals are reading your blog at this very moment...
Would be quite interesting.
At least you can control the "vandalizing" here. No annoying phrase to scrape off or paint over. Just click and delete.
You should see the crap that they write in the bathrooms where I work. Preaching the Gospel never looked so filthy.
