Is this Some Kind of Joke?

Spotted scrawled on an advertising hoarding in a very run-down and depressed part of Bristol yesterday.

Nice bit of social commentary; methinks JC Decaux are strangers to irony.

Was watching Vintage TV again last night. It's becoming a ritual (must be my age). The Smiths were on:

Hay: "Morrisey is so..."

Chairman: "Up his own arse?"

Hay: "No...."

Chairman: "Nihilistic?"


Hay: "No...."

Chairman: "Should have committed suicide years ago?"

Hay: "No.......So irritating and controversial."
