Obey Giant is a bunch of street-art lunatics who tag everything in sight. They’re like the rebels of the art world, and their leader, Shepard Fairey, made that stupid Obama ‘Hope’ poster and the Andre the Giant tag that screams ‘OBEY’ at you.
My mom thinks Obey Giant is a new fitness app. I told her it’s just a bunch of guys drawing on walls.
At school, my friend drew the Obey fist on his math test. The teacher flipped.
I saw a guy tag a fire hydrant with ‘OBEY’ and he got arrested. I laughed so hard I peed my pants.

I tried to tag my neighbor’s fence with ‘OBEY’ and got yelled at. My dad said I was a ‘tagging disaster.’
My cousin drew the Obey fist on his lunch bag. His teacher gave him a warning. He said it was ‘art or bust.’

Obey Giant is like art treason, they turned a cool underground thing into a corporate mess. They took something wild and made it stupid. Now it’s just a logo on a T-shirt.
My friend tried to tell his mom about Obey Giant. She said, ‘That’s just a logo on a shirt. Why are you obsessed?’
I saw a guy wearing an Obey Giant shirt and he said, ‘This is art.’ I said, ‘No, this is just a shirt.’
My teacher said Obey Giant was ‘just a company now. It used to be cool.’ I said, ‘It still is cool. You’re just old.’
