Sometimes it's more okay to be different in a large city than in a small town....

Many people worldwide just love to listen to his talks and would dearly pay for his 'jabbering'....

| Comment: | This is yet another stencil. It says something like: Because we are not goods. It was probably made during the protests about the minimum wage and working hours of factory workers. The working class stood up and marched around the city in hope of convincing the government that the new legislation about the topic was nonsense and that it violated basic working rights. Fine. |

| Comment: | This graffiti says: Tuitions, no thank you. It is one of the many graffiti on this topic that you can find in Ljubljana and other parts of Slovenia. Most of them appeared when the tuitions were one of the political issues and the government wanted to change the legislation about it. The students resisted, there were protests and the graffiti were just one way to express how we felt |

| Comment: | This is a stencil (a graffiti method that means using a sheet of plastic or cardboard in which we cut a design so that ink or paint applied to the sheet reproduces the pattern on the surface beneath) of Josef Fritzl, also known as the Dungeon monster. He kidnapped his daughter and kept her in the family basement for 24 years. In the years of captivity his daughter gave birth to 7 of his children. The case was one of the most talked about media topics in 2008. The graffiti sarcastically names him as family man. |

| Comment: | This graffiti is about Slavoj Žižek the Slovenian continental philosopher and critical theorist working in a lot of different fields of Philosophy. He is a member of University of Ljubljana but also a professor at the European Graduate School. He is also a visiting professor at a lot of different universities around the globe. He is famous for his provocative thoughts and one of the most quoted Slovenians. The graffiti above says that he just talks and talks in a sense of jabbering. |

| Graffiti text: | Euro ripoff: While walking on the sidewalk and thinking how electricity bills are getting higher I saw this graffiti on the railway bridge across the Celovška road. It says 'nateg' with the Euro symbol used instead of the letter 'e', suggesting the introduction of the common European currency in Slovenia has been a ripoff. Has the introduction of Euro in Slovenia really been a ripoff for Slovenians? I don't think so, I think that the problem of the rising costs in our lives lies in fiercer competiton on the market - our country can't do much to protect us. So the introduction of Euro itself is not a ripoff, the real ripoff is the system that uses such changes to its advantage at the cost of people whose wallets get thinner. I think that even if we had still used our good old 'tolars', the prices would be just as high and our wallets just as thin. |
