Graffiti

I love French trains and the scenery they pass through. I've already seen deer, hares and bunnies. I've crossed a sweeping reach of the Seine, and seen splendid fields of ripening wheat and barley. But one major thing you just can't miss in France is ubiquitous graffiti - or more specifically "tagging". It is visible on almost every surface beside the tracks. No exageration. Here's just one of millions of examples:


Call me old-fashioned...I love the Banksy/ trompe l'oeil stuff...but this graffiti isn't close to that. It's neither pretty, interesting, clever or rare. It's just wasteful, boring and pointless. Or am I becoming a grumpy old curmudgeon?
