A Hiding to Nothing

I was planning a mystery bar post about the big new place in town, but somehow I just wasn't inspired. Let's just say that Osteria del Toro is to the Mediterranean what Monsoon Poon is to Asia. Make of that what you will.
But after dinner I ran across this paste-up in a dark alley:
Something gives me the impression that this was not intended as a finished work of art: more as a canvas for further creative intervention. Make of that what you will.
It's obviously been put up to offer cutting-edge street inspiration, showing the benefits of making healthy lifestyle choices, having your five-plus fruit and veggies and getting 30 minutes of exercise a day.
Dark Alleyway?
Should be Clint Rickards!
The only thing good to come out of the whole Clint Rickards disgustingness is that it has helped a little to shake the stupid myth that women are only raped in dark alleys by strangers, probably because they were drunk and asking for it at least a little bit.
You're treading dangerously close to libel and/or slander there.
How so?
Firstly, slander wouldn't apply because that's to do with spoken words, which isn't applicable here. And secondly, the NZ law just calls it all defamation.
But the fact is, Clint Rickards was aqcuitted of the rape of Louise Nichols and to imply otherwise is indeed risky business.
Thank you Robyn; risky AND irresponsible, since comments on websites are considered to be "published" with respect to libel laws and it would be the "publisher" of the Wellingtonista, not the author of the comment, that would be the target of any legal action.
It'd be best to remove the original offending comment, I think.
Meh, make 'em ask
You're a seat-of-the-pants kinda guy, huh? ;)
Stop staring at Hadyn's arse plz.
I just want to see how small these boxes will go.
And wheher they'll just pop out the other side.
And for the record, I never suggested Clint Rickards was a rapist, just a dodgy back alley dealer ;)
How small do they go then then?
As a bonus...we get to see how robust the style sheet is, too!
Heeelp! All the walls are caving in!
Surely that's as far as they go?
I guess we will find out...

Boy that really is narrow
Hahah! I was walking past that and my American friends asked who it was and why it was there.
"Well, it's Rodney Hyde, but I really have nooooo idea why."
