I love the Brits; not only do they apparently think I should rule their blogosphere (I humbly accept), but they’re also in many ways quite simply batshit insane. One of the manifestations of this unfortunate, though amusing-to-watch, characteristic is their irrational fondness for so-called “Festivals.”
They appear to define the word “Festival” as “any occasion during which city dwellers come in contact with both actual dirt and other people wearing same, particularly on their faces,” and most particularly if it cost a month’s salary and someone is screaming at them through an expensive sound system during a downpour.
Trust Banksy to be more clever than your run of the mill Festivationator: he’s organized a Festival in a tunnel.
Behold The Cans Festival (via Walking Turcot Yards):
Some people are calling it the greatest stencil art show that has ever taken place in a tunnel underneath Waterloo station. It was visited by 28,544 people and 623 of them painted on the walls.

One thing the Brits have to start doing is optimizing their websites for Firefox. That kino thing is a big mess. Interesting link, though.
Cool. Love me some stencils.
I just love Banksy. I have no idea what he looks like, but he’s obviously both socially conscious and good with his hands and that goes a long way in my book.
We are not batshit insane [on her hands and knees looking for her marbles]
Oh, please. You elected Boris Johnson!

Well, as I’m hoping Bojo will spend some of it on me, I can hardly criticize the graft system.
