This clever bit of graffiti was spotted in Ottawa, Ontario. It’s patterned after Charlie Brown’s iconic shirt and inverts Charlie’s expression “Good grief” with the inscription “Grief ain’t Good.”
UPDATE: In the comments, Nick gives detailed information about this site. Thanks, Nick!

I actually live about 3 blocks away from this place. It’s on Cambridge and Gladstone, just before Little Italy.
The story behind it was that it was a pawn shop which closed in like 2000, was a crack den for awhile, and is now empty. It’s supposed to be knocked down in the next two months, sadly.

Sadly this graffiti has already been painted over (with bright yellow, obviously).
There’s a great blog post about the house by the same guy interviewed in the Sun article here: http://centretown.blogspot.com/2009/06/yellow-house-redevelopment.html
