When I was younger, a friend and I would hide our cigarettes in markers exactly like that, so when our stuff got searched by parents they would not find it.

Nice idea if the owner is not anywhere near being teen aged.
Nowadays posession of markers is probable cause to suspect a tagger, or something more serious than cigarettes. But this could work for an office work station fairly well, until it gets swiped. (What would need to be hidden in an office though?)

"tagger, or something more serious than cigarettes" lol smoking is more serious than tagging, at least in my book, and i do both! besides, you can hardly tag with a crayola...

No comment.

i just mean if you were to be unwilling to accept the risks inherent in BOTH activities, but rather only capable of stomaching the risk of one OR the other, tagging would quite obviously be the better way to go...

[mgalyean]

Smoking would be the more ethical choice as it is more a crime against oneself whereas tagging is a crime against another.

[xhephaestusx]

but who does tagging really hurt? the hurt is all imagined...
who cares if the crushing mundanity of a nondescript wall is broken up? people who like to care too much.
who cares if the crushing mundanity of all those healthy alveoli is broken in one of their brothers in the human race? people who like to care about other people...
this is all i meant

[mgalyean]

Who are you to decide if painting someone else's property against their will is "ok" or not. Is it your wall? Unless you are objecting to the very idea of private property in which case this conversation is pointless. And personally, I find the constant reminders of gangs and violence much more "crushing" than "mundanity". What is so important about tagging that a "street artist" can't do it on their own paper? Or with the permission of the owner? Why the necessity to violate another's rights for it to be authentic? I'm going to bow out of this thread on the premise that you haven't really thought this stuff through enough to have an opinion that would contribute to my understanding any further. I will part saying that lack of respect for other's property, whether that property is another's life, or just another's wall, is the root of all evil in this world. Respect starts with not crossing certain boundaries. And if there is no respect, we are mere beasts.

I like step 6! L

[PSPerson]

sooo, SWIRLEY!! haa.

[nutsandbolts_64]

Try cutting off a piece of the ink cartridge only so that it wouldn't get suspiciously dead. A functioning marker where you can also stash things (spybug!!!).

[dawsonj]

dude, this is an awesome idea! i might try it with another type of pen, still great LOL

[knuckel]

 wow nice the third pic looks like a eyeball!

[porcupinemamma]

Fun ;0)

Excellent I-ble, but be cautious if storing anything valuable. Someone could possibly try to use your marker safe as a marker only. While using, the ink supply could suddenly end due to the fact that you removed the reservoir, and the person could possibly throw out your "stash", just thinking it is a "dead" marker.
