Best Graffiti Ever
My favourite was a public loo in Oxford where someone had written a huge poem all down the cubicle door. Best bit? Someone else had added detailed literary criticism. Only in Oxford. Have you seen better? Worse? Do tell.

Oxford graffiti Part 2
Re: the original story - there are a lot of loos in Oxford are like that. The girls' toilets in the bottom of part of the university library were legendary. You could spend hours in there reading old bits of scribbled wisdoms ranging from smart-arse limericks to Latin jokes (yeah) to big fat obscenities in elegant handwriting.
My favourite was the poem that covered the whole of the toilet door (it can't be the one our Fuhrer was talking about, or if so, what was he doing in the ladies, like?) It lasted six months, and yes, in that time, it did get covered in other people's helpful criticisms/corrections. If anyone has a burning desire to know what it was you can pm me - before I left, I wrote it down for posterity. (No responsibilty for wankiness shall be accepted.)
Oh yeah - There was also a very large list on one wall that had grown over the years and was constantly being added to. It was a guide to Oxford men - who had the biggest willy, who was secretly gay, who to avoid at all costs, and so on. Underground female conspiracy. There were some real gems there - my personal pick was one in great big black letters saying DAVID UNDERWOOD GAVE ME PUBIC LICE!!! underlined several times. Poor old Dave.
Length? One does not apologise in Oxford...
