Dude cut and pasted his comment from another blog. Obey is a fugazi. If I want real shit I'll look at an art history book or buy a Fuct design. Obey = tasteless first year graphic design students and rural people. Obviously the person that commented previously is in the Obey camp. Dude cut and pasted his comment from another blog.

It’s a time-honored tradition among the second-rate and failing. The fact that he passed out literature– including HIS OWN ART– amongst those standing in line at Fairey’s show ought to tell you he’s simply an opportunist out to raise his own profile. If he were truly interested in constructive dialogue he would have picked up the phone and made the local call to Fairey to ask him about it. Then, if he wasn’t satisfied with the answers– or at least wanted to include them– he could have offered up the other side of the coin. Instead, he posted a shrill call of “Look at Me!” in hopes of selling a few more canvases of his Jr. High caliber artwork. Pretty sad, really.
