I heard some twat the other day saying "if you dont rack, you ain't a real writer".


I personally think its a load of shit, who gives a fuck if you pay for your paint or not, it's the actual painting that matters.

But anyway, who racks and who pays?

Back home teefin wasnt a problem but in Bristol I only found 3 shops that sell decent paint, one's a faggy art shop keeping all the tins and markers behind the desk, and the other two are record shops that keep the tins in a back room, and they make you take off your bags or long sleeves before you go down there.

bit of both but i would say pay more then rack

If I could find a fucking place that even sells something better than Walmart or Krylon than I probably would.

Looks like it's the internet for me.

*Sigh*

Only place that sells paint in Bath is Detour Skate Shop and

1.) I wouldn't steal from there as its where I buy all my clothes and skate stuff, plus I know the owner
2.) It would be impossible anyway as theyre behind a glass cabinet underneath the counter

i never paid for paint to be honest...i always racked it and thats when it was behind a locked gate but they are stupid so it was still easier...because they didnt expect anyone ta try and gettem....
and as far as if it makes you a true writer i dont think so...
a true writer does what ever he has to do ta get what he needs to get his/her shit done...thats just my philosophy.....

^^i agree with your philosphy..

i also rack my paint.. only reason is cuz i'm banned from all the shops that sell it in my area.. however if i cannot be arsed to go over town, i'll order it online or something and have it sent to my other address
