SEEING "ORFN 9T3" WRITTEN ON A DUMPSTER ALMOST A DECADE AGO IS STILL ETCHED IN MY MIND. I KNOW THIS IS AN ORFN THREAD BUT IT WOULD ROCK TO SEE ANY OTHER "US" OR "IBC" PICS OUT THERE ON THIS THREAD.

Jerk182 Posted June 9, 2002 Share Posted June 9, 2002 i cant remember the year but i was still in junior high. years before i ever started trying to draw those cool "graffiti letters" i started seeing in all the skate magazines, i noticed orfn. visiting family in sf walking through some park i saw it sideways on a pole, then on the corner of the curb, on the bustop, on the payphone, and i could read it even though it was spelled WRONG! my head was spinning "what if he is an orphan?" "i wonder if he is really short to paint those curbs?" "why is it spelled that way?" "how many people write it?" "is it a gang?" "what is that thing after the 'n' " i even pointed it out to my mom who had no idea what trouble it would cause in the years to come. i even stopped gawking at the big city and all its non-white people as i played a little game of "find the orfn tag" in my head. that shit was everywhere even civilians like myself noticed it. a writer was born. awesome............... -jerk182 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
