Lost in Translation
I saw some kid graffiti yesterday that cracked me up… can you make out what the text is meant to say?
Answer below the cut tag.
I originally thought it said, “You are stycoped”.
I couldn’t figure out what that meant, so I asked my wife. She looked at it for a moment and said, “Are you stupid?” Took me a second to realize she was translating the graffiti!
Were you able to figure it out? Or are you stupid like me!
ps bonus points if you can figure out what the illustration means???

i did guessed it correctly, but i don’t get at all what was drawn (?) there
funny. and you had the presence of mind to take a foto
Haha yeah I figured they were saying stupid. Oh stupid kids…
That kid has a future ahead as a linguist. Very good ear.
I knew what they were saying but I don’t get the drawing…
Looks like you are styooped if you let a bird shit on your head.
You are stupid when you are a couple walking through a storm, carrying umbrellas and then get struck by lightning turning to dust!
I thought it said “are you styco” to which I translated to “are you psycho”?
hahaha iono.
I suppose this is what passes for quaint in the Dark Age.
I knew it said “are you stupid” but I didn’t get the drawing but now ohhhh lol
“you are stupid” was the first thing I thought of, but then again I’m fluent in hilarious child drawings.
I stycoped too. I artist see lovely flowers,pond and trees.
everyone is such a stycope!
I guessed right!
I once had somebody call me an “Idiyeot”
I failed.
It’s “are you a psyho ped?” It means to say “are you a psycho pedophile?” From the drawing it looks like the artist could also be a victim of some sort. Sad.
I knew it said ‘you are stupid’! But the drawing above? Idk.
Haha I figured out it was “Are you Stupid” & the pictures are of sex
Love it! I figured out the words right away. But the drawing? Not sure. My guess would be “If you fall into the hole, you will crush your head and it will smash you very small.” eh, just a guess.
