As I said on the other one of these, there are so many arseholes and so little time. However, AHOTD is Wanksy.
Banksy has hit out at clothes retailer Guess, claiming the company has used his designs without permission.
The graffiti artist posted a photo of the Regent Street store in London, and suggested shoplifters should visit.
He wrote on Instagram: “They’ve helped themselves to my artwork without asking, how can it be wrong for you to do the same to their clothes?”
Wansky has always been a posturing, self-righteous, virtue-signalling prick. So this is pretty much in line with his behaviour. As he remains anonymous, claiming copyright is somewhat difficult. However,
The company said the collection was created in collaboration with Brandalised, which licenses designs by graffiti artists.
If Wanksy has a problem, it’s with Brandalised, not Guess, who appear to have acted reasonably and in accordance with copyright law. In retaliation, Wanksy is inciting criminal behaviour.
Wanker.
Speaking last month about the collection, Guess chief creative officer Paul Marciano said: “The graffiti of Banksy has had a phenomenal influence that resonates throughout popular culture.
God knows why. It’s tedious dross that has an entirely predictable, facile, right-on message that couldn’t be more establishment if he tried.
As I said, Wanker.
She said: “It isn’t known if Banksy approved or even knew about this deal. If he did know about it, then perhaps his comments are there to create some kind of guerrilla marketing campaign. If he didn’t know about it, then he must be quite annoyed, especially as such mainstream companies and brands don’t accord with his anti-establishment views.
That may be the case. However, he does not have anti-establishment views. He is in lockstep with the establishment orthodoxy.
Wanker.
He also revealed on Thursday that he had visited Ukraine to create seven new pieces.
Stunning and brave. Anti-establishment at its finest.
Wanker.
Given that he’s anonymous, I’ve always wondered how he funds his lifestyle? Does he have a day job as an art teacher in a school?
And a cunt to boot.
Not one single solitary piece of his daubing can come close to this:

I have this theory, which is my own, that there is room at the top for only one…
Only one female singing star at the top
Only one male singing star at the top
Only one boy band at the top
Only one girl band at the top
Only one English footballer at the top
Only one author (per genre) at the top
and so on. I imagine that there is room for only one graffiti artist at the top. Now the thing about being ‘at the top’ is that there are plenty of competitors looking to displace you, so you keep being more and more ‘edgy’ or ‘controversial’ to stay in the public eye and on top. It’s really PR and nothing to do with ability any more.
There is a troop of monkeys sitting on the branches of a tree. The lowest monkey looks up, and all he can see is arseholes.
