Go to the bathroom...

Type your bathroom graffiti quote. Then, write a story about it. What led the writer to write that passage/graffiti? Who is the writer? Try to imagine a series of threads that come together to create this small social/political/emotional statement.

Remember, you will refrain from offensive language/content.
