My favourite graffiti cannot be posted here due to obscenity, obscurity (for those outside of Oz), because recent history has made it somewhat redundant.

I bought a Moleskin, but I feel I would be desecrating its blank potential with any of the words I wrote in it.

Open your moleskine to the first page. Get a nice pen, I prefer rollerball fine point. Ready? Write down "Chinese people tie their toes in knots so they cannot grow any."

There. Now you will feel free to use the notebook to write nearly anything.

I perform a similar ritual with new notebooks, typically transcribing a Japanese or Chinese poem. My current notebook has this on the opening page:

Once, far over the breakers,
I caught a glimpse
Of a white bird
And fell in love
With this dream which
obsesses me.

- Yosano Akiko


On the facing page is the XSLT Identity Transform.
