Looking Good

joey

yeAH, what's up with this scrawl font all this stuff was written in? Was all this written after the fact, or did some orderly really think scrawling things derangedly on the wall was going to boost morale in the place? It is strange, like the boy and dog. Dissonance from seeing them and seeing the place in dissarray i guess. The photo contradicts the sentiment. Or maybe it proves it.

Burdick Sine-O-Tron

yeah, they still do electroshock. Nobody knows what causes depression except for a depressing existence, and since that can't be changed, they make do with biological theories about neurochemical systems and when the prozac fails, they turn on the juice. It is said to revitalize you when you come to, but it wears off. Why not just plug you into an extension cord? Shame they can't just give you some good drugs if they're going to all that trouble.

Revelations

why is it always that same ugly shade of institution green in those hospitals? they used to paint everything that color down to refrigeorators. Does it really calm you down looking at the same ugly shade of green ALL day lol?

Not that you narrow minded people would understand, but there is a whole sub culture to graffiti. It becomes something of a brotherhood.
Love it or hate it, it's invading commercialism as well.
