Personally I hate graffiti. Always have. When I see graffiti as soon as something new is built or fixed, all it does is make me think how disrespectful these chodes are.
What I do appreciate are the street murals.

(9,078 posts)There is zero respect for the city or the people who live here.
Ever since Hollywood was rebuilt it became a magnet for assholes, like we didn't have enough of them already.
Kids and adults drive into our neighborhoods and throw M80s and M100's out their car windows at all hours.
I am never more pissed off than when this happens.
It terrifies the animals and children and causes adults to jump (especially if you are dead asleep). I've had a few pop off near my bedroom window.
They also drive around to intersections for street takeovers. It blows my mind so many kids participate and put themselves in danger to get a rush. It isn't "cool". It's disrespectful, it's disruptive and it's dangerous.
Hence the label "Chode".

I've only been to/through Woodland Hills once. On our way to a meeting with a business partner who had offices there, we drove along some incredible tree lined road, nearly canopied by the leaves and branches. It was very woodsy and beautiful. Reminded me of home in KCMO.
