What posters do you have on your walls at home?

[Rambuchan]

I'm going to answer this one a bit more seriously now. I've kind of gone beyond the age of having posters on my walls, preferring framed photos, paintings and drawings now.

But I was madly into posters when younger. I've sourced copies of the ones I had on my walls in the teens. Here they are:


This poster was MASSIVE. I think it was 6ft x 4ft.




I fiddled with this Morrison one a bit. I bought it, left it rolled up in its wrapper and gave it to my friend's dogs. They ripped it and munched it. Then I took it away, opened it out and stuck it onto newspaper. So it appeared on my wall with this beautiful tattering pattern down the middle, through which you could see the newsprint. Well, I thought it looked cool anyway.


I still love this album. It's the one that brought us the original version of what we think is Bob Marley's "Get Up, Stand Up". But it was written by Peter Tosh, a militant young broda. I fully subscribed to his message in "Equal Rights" before I matured and pacified. Those lyrics go: "Everyone is crying out for peace. None is crying out for justice. I don't want no peace. I need equal rights and justice."


Of all the Hendrix posters out there. I thought this was the coolest.

There were also Dali paintings, Ansell Adams landscapes, Shiva paintings, my own paintings and lots of other silly stuff.

And it's true!

You know it's true. I know it's true. Even my mum knows it's true. That's why she drank a pint of guiness every day when she was pregnant with me.

I have a towel of a wolf I thought about putting on the wall like a poster, but I don't know how.

 

[Rambuchan]

Drawing pins perhaps?

 

[Chukchi Husky]

Wouldn't that damage the towel?

 

[Rambuchan]

No it won't at all. I used to hang loads of drapes and wall hangings like that. Your towel has little holes in it between the stitches already. It won't mind another one or two

(It will however put little holes in your wall, but you can easily fill those in and...it's your wall!)

I'm a fan of posters from gigs, a friend of mine had a Stone Roses one which he got from Spike Island. He was very proud of it. Equally proud was I of my Verve at the Haigh Hall Poster

I used to hang loads of drapes and wall hangings like that.

Sounds a bit like a boudoir to me

No it isn't.

 

[Rambuchan]

No it isn't.

Dude, you bewilder me with your barrage of points and arguments. Please, show some restraint! I simply cannot handle it.

(What isn't?)

More like an opium den actually.

If you can't blind 'em with brilliance, baffle them with bullzit.

Anyway, it isn't his wall, #1 he doesn't own/rent the bedroom, and/or #2 if any posters he hangs get torn down.

 

[Ansar]

I have 3 posters that I got from school.

• 1 War of the Worlds poster
• 1 Pink Panther poster - not hanged up yet.
• 1 Stealth poster

Currently, the only one on the wall is the War of the Worlds one.

Just a couple pictures of myself and some mirrors

Isn't that redundant?

You're quoting Truman there or was it FDR? I forget which.

And pray tell, HOW was I supposed to know whether big bad C rents or not? I'm wondering where these rumours of my mindreading prowess are being issued from. You're not the first today...

Not a clue in hell, I didn't even think it was a phrase originating with a US President.

Sorry, previous threads, notably one where CH asks whether his father could be skimming his disability payments. Come to think of it, that might fall under 'paying rent' anyway. But in any case, I was aiming for more of the concept (a la southern Lebanon) of "if you can't control it, you don't really own it".

Plus I'm in an arbitrarily, nay capriciously confrontational and combative mood after VRWCAgent just bopped the remainder of my attack force when it was poised to finally take his city in CivIVor, and you were in the way.

 

[Oruc]

theres two monster wrestler in my pocket posters, tasmanian devil, dino crisis, superfrog and the newest one Knights of the old republic 2 poster.

Most of those are all really old from when I was kid I just cant be bothered to get take-em down.

 

[Masquerouge]

I don't have posters anymore. For some reason I find them very... teenagy. The best one I used to have was a life-size poster of the Shaq
I now have pictures of places where I travelled

 

[Aegis]

Which posters do I have on my walls? Why, Bozo-Erectus and Whomp, of course.

That joke's been made three times already

 

[Kan' Sharuminar]

Hardly, if I was Fifty I would have posters of myself and several mirrors too
