Graffiti was never intended to dominate this space, especially not discussion of it, but there has been some interesting questions raised and I have had more time than usual of late, so whateva.
And that is what happens with graffiti when left to its own devices, it dominates. But that is never the case. It is never left to its own devices. It is the product of people who are in someway reasonable in both producing it and countering it. It is not everyones reasoning, but it came from somewhere. Many of which are not bad places. And it goes somewhere too. Which are also not all bad.
Graffiti may have saved this life. Maybe not entirely, but it certainly had a lot to do with the path that I am on, which honestly doesn’t have much to do with graffiti anymore, which is sometimes unfortunate.

Am I using it in the singular? I think it’s use in this case is a mass noun, which may not be proper but seems to be accepted practice.

Radarman, you’re correct about the medium/media distinction, but graffiti is used here as a mass noun, not in reference to a single specimen. Anyway, it and panini have been adopted into the English language and, as such, are not subject to the rules of the original Italian. It is conventional usage to ask for one panini or two paninis when ordering in English.
