Never have your subway ads ask questions

Unless you don't mind people scrawling answers to them:

... On my way home on the orange line a few nights ago, I noticed an ad that asked "Is a biolab safe in the south end?" with graffiti scrawled below it that said "No or anywhere else". ... [O]n an ad that said "Where's Whitey" (probably referring to "Whitey" Bulger the FBI informant at the center of recent scandal) the artist had replied below "In the Suburbs". ...

Biolab? Someone's going to be protesting it no matter where they put it. Where I work deals in housing for 'retards' and 'kid touchers.' Trust me, we know how nimby works here.

As for Whitey - he's either a block or two down from me (Winter Hill) or he's hanging with Osama in the 'Heights.

Do we work for the same agency? There are a few that fit that description...mine's the one headquartered in downtown Boston.

The best I've ever seen? A PSA suggesting that parents should pay more attention to what their kids are doing after school: "When my kids come home from school, they like to _____" and someone put a post-it that said "make Mommy a pitcher of Scarlett O'Haras"! Priceless!
