graffiti 

graffiti is a tradition of man.. before it really became more evolved in the subway yards and on the streets of new york by its inner city youth. graffiti consists of individuals with their own alter ego, name. that they use to "bomb" with. (to go out and get their name up everywhere they go) usually when these individuals start off they are influenced by the style and artform of the letters. some are also influenced by the names seen around their city or just graffiti itself. graffiti is also the first element of hip-hop and tagging is the first element of graffiti. graffiti can be very simple on the outside. but once explored there are many things one must be open minded enough to learn.

Graffiti City 

Nickname for Modesto, California, so named because George Lucas based the script for American Graffiti upon events that occurred there during his senior year at Downey High. He just changed everyone's and everything's names enough so they couldn't sue him for defamation of character.

Modesto also used to host the biggest Graffiti Night rallies for a few years after the movie came out.

Social Graffiti 

Social Graffiti is where a social establishment like a Pub, Club or Restaurant has a cool element (drawcard) and then takes on a group of people, and for its time is great;

Then, as more people become aware of a 'good' spot, friends and family and cousins and exes and neighbours and the blonde guy from House all rock up and overcrowd the place with their shittiness.

This leads to overcrowding and the establishment takes on an unintended crowd.
"That new club started out awesome, but now it's just full of Social Graffiti."

A restaurant I regularly go to used to be a great quiet spot to take a bunch of friends to drink and hang out and enjoy yourself. Now, if you can manage to get a booking - you'll be shoulder to shoulder with morons yelling at the top of their lungs and generally behaving like yokels.

Metaphysical graffiti 

Metaphysical graffiti is the idea that many things in metaphysics are infinitely unknown, and to speak of them may serve as a detriment.
Jason shouted out some metaphysical graffiti today at the coffee shop.
