Good old homegrown citizen outrage, captured in vibrant colors and a well-placed reference to Edvard Munch’s “The Scream” and unmistakably lampooning Mayor Daley’s parking meter fiasco, as captured on a Rogers Park bench. Makes you long for summer -- more specifically, the summer before parking costs skyrocketed.

That graffiti is awesome! The parking meter fiasco's been a real existential crisis for a lot of Chicagoans. It's this huge looming menace that we're more or less powerless to do anything about except pay up.
well, technically it's not a graffiti, neighbors express themselves on some cement revetment slash bench seating every year
Glad to see this front-paged. Quick snippets of Chicago coolness make the morning run faster.
You should leave a note at the site inviting the artist to come forward.
Pandering to parking meter opponents, trueslant?
It's just a cool mural. Upvoted.
Chicago street art.
The way those three words hang together so perfectly, how could examples of it be anything less than awesome?
