doyle there is actually a tagline to complement the title Celebrity Death Bingo which is 'gone but not forgotten' Aside from the '27 Club' a majority of celebs live to a ripe old age but disappear into obscurity once they are no longer in the spotlight for whatever reason. I'm certain that it's crossed your mind previously when you've seen an obituary for a celeb that you had thought they were already deceased, it has mine. Well put. Just recently had a friend post on Facebook the death of a celebrity that had passed 5 years ago. Nice use of the 27 Club, but you're right in saying the 72 Club is much more common. As for calling people sick fucks, I think that's a wee bit harsh considering it's simply a game. Hate to break it to you(whoever made that reference), but we all go sometime. And having lost my father a few years back(& my father in law recently as well), humor is the best medicine. My old man was my best friend, but I still laugh at our exchanges from the last night he was coherent. Simply put, if some are turned off by the game, don't play.

Oh so glad I came out of my box & saw this. Been loving the Boxman on newspaper since you first posted those images! If I don't win I may need to save for a bday gift to myself. Great gesture!!

Not crap, I'd say it's gold. Well done. It needs nothing else, IMO. As an educator in the US, this image really hits home... sadly. Do. Sadly is right shady! My wife's been a teacher in the states as well(as was my mom & her mom) for roughly 20 years, so unfortunately I couldn't agree more. And no bashing here. Nice piece that is powerful enough as is! Keep it up.

Little off topic for this forum but curious if anyone else on here is a fan of Louis Wain's work? I've been fascinated by his work for years. Given that original postcards(especially the Tuck series) aren't cheap, & not as common in the states, it's a real fantasy of mine to stumble across one in a a random antique shop. Always hit the odd postcard section. If so I'd love to see pics.

How the hell did I miss this??? I'm short, chubby, & bald... My entire life has been an embarrassing joke. But even tho it's over I tried to come up with the cheesiest one to honor our multinational group. So...."If you're American in the living room, what are you in the bathroom? Euro-peein'." Ah screw it, I just giggled out loud.

Thanks guys. Just hit up a few artists. I'll potentially be DM'ing a few of you on here for specific collector quotes as well.

First dreaded speech in my Publuc Speaking class & of course I went w/ "street art". Looking for any quotes from artists & collectors. I'll hit up a few personally but was hoping to get some replies on here. Things such as what first interested you about the movement. What you look for in the pieces or artists you collect. How artist's ideals & anonymity help gain a following. General ideas like that. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks guys!!!

I really like that Martha Cooper piece. She's as iconic & talented as many of the artists whose work she's photograhed. Best of luck.

is this for sale or trade only ? I am interested in banksy prints at low low prices Hi Mate, It's listed in the trade section. So looking for a trade only. Cheers! If that's the case Json, I'm looking to trade low low value prints for a Banksy. Oh sorry, couldn't resist. The low low price for a Banksy has kept me giggling since being posted. Wishing you luck sir. If my collection wasn't so meager we both know I'd trade most anything for that. Keep hoping you find a worthy trade.

No one was deleted, @cunt deleted their own account. This place self-polices the only bans are trolls with a couple of posts stirring shit. Hmmmm... Cunt/Bored/Hoxy/Stella has told me she did NOT delete her own account, and that she was in the middle of writing a reply when she found herself banned. May be speaking only for myself but A. I wouldn't believe anything someone w/ a half dozen usernames says. And B. After all the accusations thrown out and trouble @cunt caused I doubt anyone cares why he/she is gone. Just good riddance.

I am going to leave this forum now, after a moderator outed me in this thread, i thought I was safe in my anonomous here. But in PM's from federation of ideas he told me moderators talk about us in private messages and calls us by names, How fed then came to the conclusion that he openly could based on 'that other moderators already knew who I was' could out me here is still a major mystery. I feel uncomfortable and not safe here. Well by all means go then. Anyone that knows or has had dealings w/ Fed knows he's nothing but top notch! And for you to come & question his integrity is ridiculous. Although considering you've used several different usernames, I'm sure you'll be back under another bitching about something. I know when this forum started there was a lot of positivity & great intentions involved. I jumped on board thanks to a few names that I had gotten to know as really nice guys; Fed being one. I think many had grown sick of people like you & your constant negative comments. There are too many things to get worked up over in this world other than someone being kind enough to do a giveaway. And as for Fed using Banksy for practice, who cares & why even question an admitted copy on a giveaway??? I still have a Banksy he did on the side of the box he shipped a piece in. And yes I have it sitting out to liven up my office & make me smile. I would join the chorus to ban you but, A. Each is entitled to their own ignorant ass opinion & B. You'd just switch to your umpteenth username & return starting more drama. Just please don't threaten(or excite us all) about leaving the forum if you have no intention of it. Or this can apply to rosa and/or black Peter since the other trouble maker seems to have actually left. And btw, I know he's taking a break, probably thanks to you 3, but great giveaway that was Fed!!

Anyone happen to grab one of Guy's Bristol Blue prints of Tricky @ this year's Upfest? Curious how they looked in person and/or framed.

trade for an off-brand Banksy mousepad? Excellent offer, thanks fed... Dammit Fed. So much for my offers of a slightly used Girl w/ Balloon tee, shaving my already bald head & modifying my "I ❤️ Banksy" tramp stamp tattoo to read "Json" instead. All of those combined still can't compete w/ the limited edition off-brand mousepad!!

Is that Leopold & Loeb??? Wild. And I quite like the use of the frame and chimp. Also how did a nice simple image of a dancer cause so much anger & childish discussion of masturbation? I think all the attitude would be better served on a um, different forum. I for one definitely appreciate it as anyone who's ever known a dancer or been to the ballet will know the hard work it takes to master the art. My sister has danced since age 3 & has a couple of studios. And tho you might never guess, I know the discipline involved even watching my 4 year old still clumsily learning her routines. Keep up the work jig5aw!
