Bath literature

This is a series of pictures shot at the toilettes of a pub in Old Street. I was so deeply moved by the message, and I also had my camera with me, so here you have the result!

Warning: depending on your specific case, this might not be work-safe.

I love old selotape!

I love old selotape

Someone proclaims her love for the most unsuspected item to think of in a night out (I love old selotape), someone else believes her (I believe you!), and someone else gets worried about the spelling of selotape (Is that spelt correctly?).

This one made me think a lot, not only because selotape is wrongly spelt (I think the right one is cellotape although wikipedia's cellotape also says sellotape is how it is known in UK), but because I tried to guess if that had a hidden message. Maybe wrapping people with old cellotape is the new sexual trend and we still don't know!!

Fuck like you're being filmed

Fuck like you're being filmed

Although being painted in a shy, pale purple, now that's a message! This one motivated a couple of replies in the following picture:

No. I don't fuck I make love / And I make love like I'm being filmed

No I don't fuck I make love / And I make love like I'm being filmed

First reply -No. I don't fuck I make love- is written with that kind of plastic paint that you used when you were a child. Then someone comes with an alternative and solomonic solution: And I make love like I'm being filmed. You can't argue against that one! So maybe that's why there are no follow-up's to the topic.

I wouldn't want to take me home

I wouldn't want to take me home

Another one which made think. Why not? Is she so drunk she doesn't want to take herself home, or she doesn't believe she is the right person to go home with - and has just discovered it in the bath, right now!?

Stop bitching, start a revolution

Stop bitching, start a revolution

Here we go with more strong messages. Probably she felt annoyed with so many trivial topics. Also I believe there's always a couple of this style of messages at every bath you go... something like Fuck the system, Viva la revolución, Hasta la victoria siempre, etc. So she wasn't that innovative at the end.

War 4 peace is like fuckin 4 virginity

War 4 peace is like fucking 4 virginity

And yes there are always mentions to war, peace, etc. But this one goes further and merges war, peace, fuck and virginity. What a bunch of controversial questions.

Alabama 3, I love you!!

Alabama 3, I love you!!

I presume this has some meaning. Which only the one which wrote the text can understand, because I particularly can't! Is there any movie called Alabama 3? and if there is, how come I haven't heard of Alabama and Alabama 2? Maybe it is a music group... yes... I just googled it: Alabama 3 is an english music group. As we say in Spain, you never end a day without learning something.

I like cocks but I think I would also like cunts. What should I do?

I like cocks but I think I would also like cunts. What should I do?

She's undecided. But she should have left a telephone number or e-mail address; these issues shouldn't be discussed publicly. Maybe that's why nobody replied.

I love Jerry

I love Jerry

She's got a clear mind. This is pure love, definitely. Innocence at its best.

Suck my tits / and lick my clit / eat my shit / and suck his duck

Suck my tits...

Modern poetry (or kind of...)

Baths are literature places, isn't it?

Baths are literature places

I can't agree more with her!
