Previous Day :: Next Day

Steve: He also says that England has no loyality to us, but England is full of Muslims and immogrants,i think most people in England arn't even loyal to the Crown.I agree that Ulster Loyalists are the most loyal part of the U.K, and we are not a bastard race,a typical American...

in response to Shankill Road: Belfast

Steve: i'd like to respond to that comment by the Irish Republican who says that he tells Americans that Northern Ireland is just like the British claiming they own New York, what a load of rubbish. He's forgeting that the vast majority of people who live in Northern Ireland want to...

in response to Shankill Road: Belfast

ea: would it be different if you redefined it as multi-functional sculpture? I tend to think any architecture that elicits a positive aesthetic response from the general public is worth professional appreciation. especially consindering most people pay no attention to their built surroundings. unless, of course, they find something wrong...

in response to localized textures

DR: Dominicans dont play

in response to Crip/Blood Graffiti: Washington Heights

elaine: hee hee yes, i have had it 20 years, so. but it is a particular kind of old fashioned weirdy lino, made of printed on pressed board rather than moderny lino, so not so good for the shoe mending

in response to rapid hardware

elaine: and a party in new york?

in response to citynoise: the book

elaine: fuzzytank: we do do what we can, but sometimes it is worth giving other stuff a shot. sometimes it is not all about being technically masterful, but just finding your own voice in that new medium. if you wrote i am sure it would be fab if you found your...

in response to The Tale of Tom

bigface: Aye I seen the Likely Lads a cupla haircuts back, but whatever happened til them?

in response to Shankill Road: Belfast

elaine: i rest my case. seems to me a person shouldn't complain if they've got a ghery. but i still think it is good to gripe about architecture, all the time if you can get away with it

in response to localized textures

elaine: see, i like this alot

in response to 125th street ruins

elaine: coming from the home of the clockwork orange!!!!

in response to The Uptown B Train

elaine: well it may act like a fence, but it looks a lot nicer than one, or maybe it's just the way you have photographed it

in response to it acts like a fence

elaine: one reason why i left... and why i make such a crap visitor when i go back - as i am a champion whiner. however, foreign peeps, do not think that the UK is all like that with it's public housing, because it very very very isn't

in response to 11 Stanley Place, Kinning Park

Peter: istanbul! nice... ive heard of this bridge and the lands it links, but have never seen it. thanks for sharing :)

Peter: ahh, urban decay at its finest!

in response to 125th street ruins

Peter: nice series of photos. is it always as drab and rainy there as it looks?

in response to 11 Stanley Place, Kinning Park

Peter: hey ive seen that mural before. small world!

in response to more betances at 113 and park ave s.

Peter: that sounds alot like the elevated gowanus parkway in brooklyn... cuts the city away from the waterfront with tons of loud, badly driven traffic, heh.

in response to Alaskan Way

Patrick: The Alaskan Way Viaduct has a really bad rep but it's not all that awful: people just drive real fast down it. To be honest, the worst thing about it is that it cuts across the front of the city, separating the body of the city from the waterline...

in response to Alaskan Way

kobe: your tubes have alot of orange in em!

in response to The Uptown B Train

kobe: bloody hell. i said that too soon... just remembered that i wanted to include this map, for those familiar with the area, so here it is:

kobe: i dont get that last comment, but i like this photo.

in response to Sunset in Woodside

kobe: i like what those buildings are giving us! what are they???

in response to localized textures

kobe: i dunno, i sort of prefer specific entries, if all the photos arent of the exact same thing. i think its sort of funny to see how people's preferences come out on a wide-participation site like this. i also like that posters/commenters can do whatever they like, according to their...

in response to gct phone bank

kobe: nice. loving the juxtaposition of the huge building and the tiny freestyler.

kobe: this is an AWESOME entry. i love that doze green piece!

in response to WK, DOZE on Ludlow Street:

Ulster Loyalist: The reason why a lot of Protestants say they are from Ireland to Ignorant foreigners is that most of them don't even know that Northern Ireland is a different country and part of the U.K, so its just easier to say Ireland rather than explaining the whole political situation to...

in response to Shankill Road: Belfast

Ulster Loyalist: And i think big Ian Paisley is a very happy man, for the Unionist Electorate have spoken and they have voted in droves for the DUP and made it for the first time by far the most dominant party in Ulster. ULSTER SAYS NO.

in response to Shankill Road: Belfast

an Irsih republican : An Ulster loyalist, is that the best you can come up with? Waht about Ian Paisley cocksucking Motherfucker murdering orannge blue nose bastard? That has a better ring to it. Now lets set a few things stright Union jack bake. 1. you admitted yourself that England etc.....

in response to Shankill Road: Belfast

Ulster Loyalist: Now the might of Hitler's forces in 1941 had conquered all before them, no one could stop the Hun. But the British Empire stood quite firm, she knew she need not fear. For she knew the Lord was on her side and The Ulster Volunteers.

in response to Shankill Road: Belfast

Ulster Loyalist: And HUN means GERMAN NAZI and the IRA were conspiring and plotting with Hitler in the World Wars, so they are the HUNS. The British Empire fought and defeated the Huns. So fuck the IRA Nazi Hun bastards, Up the U.V.F NO SURRENDER.

in response to Shankill Road: Belfast

Ulster Loyalist: Its just like in Scotland, they have the Scottish National party who want to have an independent Scotland. It aint gonna happen unless a clear majority wants it and that is very unlikely.But the difference between us and other parts of the U.K is that we will fight till the...

in response to Shankill Road: Belfast

An Ulster Loyalist: Whats all this bullshit, "do you really think ay true brit wants you fools?"WE ARE THE TRUE BRITS Taigs always say that,England doesn't want us,or Labour government doesn't want us, but SO FUCKING WHAT?????

roisin : oh.. yeeehhhh..

roisin: wow. ive never seen anything like that before, but i like it alot. How do you do it tho? I mean, it looks kinda like you've markered something down and superimposed the image on top, but then there's also a see-through quality, like film, to the photo as well..Hmm, im...
