The work of George Simkin, an Irish graphic designer, is pretty passive aggressive and that's the beauty behind it. A series of modern posters, each one depicts a typographical design of messages and sayings that have crossed everyone's mind at one point or another. Although many of them are crude since they revolve around swear words, there's something universally relatable other than the fact that it's all in the English language.
George Simkin nevertheless uses such profanity with the hopes that it "would make someone smile or laugh." It certainly does at that while also bringing an urban view of art into the home or office, wherever people might need such reminders on a daily basis.
