ITT, we think up stuff and words to put on the walls for the PCs to find. Everything from murals to seemingly random poetry!
Context and explanation can go fuck itself.
Don't confine yourself to dungeons and the dungeon crawl genre.

I'll start;

"I TOLD YOU SO"

a drawing of Hatsune Miku dressed in the local culture's traditional clothing

a series of 5 arrows - two pointed north, then one pointed west, then another pointed north, and the last pointed east

a mural depicting a castle on a hill being engulfed by some sort of vague sickly yellow energy coming from the sky/space

"THERE'S MORE TO BE HAD JUST KEEP GOING"

A kilroy equivalent soldier meme to show the players that soldiers have recently been to the place.

"*leader* FUCKS GOATS ON FRIDAYS"
"Drugs on sale here" close to a police station as a taunt, no drugs ever sold there of course.
"PAY DEBTS OR DIE FAGGOT" on a door
A faction symbol drawn embarassingly wrong that's scribbled over, then an almost correctly drawn symbol next to it

Absolutely ages ago now, a GM who sucked at profanity (lovely chap) was running a game with time/space travel taking the party from shennanigan to shennanigan. We ended up in 80s/90s glasgow, materialising in an alleyway, and describing the scene, he mentioned refuse, smells, obscene graffiti, damaged brickwork...

>Hang on. Obscene graffiti? Like what?
>General obscenities and rudeness, you kno-
>No, I don't, tell me what it says
>It says, uh, that um... uh
>It says?
>It says "Barry... is... a wazzer." Yes. There's obscene graffiti, and it says "Barry is a Wazzer".

we lost it. Barry is a Wazzer has appeared as graffiti somewhere in many of my games, and the games other players in that group ran, for years afterwards. Friends-of-friends had it appear in their game without knowing where it came from.

Thanks for reading my blog.

I will now incorporate "Barry is a Wazzer" if I ever have to describe graffiti in the future, thanks anon.

The ancient romans were surprisingly fond of
>Anonimus defecated here
on walls next to alleyways where they'd shat. Literal shit posting. Also reviews of local prostitutes or just women they'd fucked. So I sometimes treat graffiti like boomer facebook combined with toilet stall scribblings.

at a junction
>LEFT or RIGHT first?
with tallies underneath

>if theres no reply under thiss i dide here
in a clearly different hand underneath
>He got out, and was fine. Everything went well.

>This dungeon sux ass

>A bad drawing of a dragon with an ass for a face spewing farts as its breath weapon

>What did tieflings do?
>THEY KNOW WHAT THEY DID

>I want your best insult. Let me have it.
and either a list of swears and in-setting slurs underneath, or a single line that says
>Nothing we write could compare to the insult you made, to your mother, by being born.

appearing repeatedly in many dungeons, never explained:
>If you meet [name], kill him.
whether [name] ever appears in your game is up to you.

overlapping, dirty handprints from goblins who were competing to see who could reach highest on the wall.
At least one is clearly drying blood.

Pic rel iirc was found at an archeological dig in England. The inscription reads "secunduss is shit". One of the archeologists commended 'whoever carved this really hated secunduss'
Something like that anyway.
Other IRL graffiti seen in Camp Junction City, AR Ramadi, Iraq;
>Wagner loves cock!
>Army girls, How does it feel to go home and still be ugly?
(A reply from an anonymous Marine)
>the 10th Mountain crossed bayonets crest replaced with two dicks.
>local donkeys wondered onto post and someone tagged them with green spray paint 'USMC'.

Vikings put runes everywhere, usually just saying shit like "Hrolfr was here," though I heard a story about a set of runes found carved way up near a cave ceiling. They had to build a little scaffold inside the cave (past a very small entryway) to figure out it just said "This is very high."

Graffiti I've seen IRL that I'd take inspiration from

>Call out GOURANGA and be happy
was everywhere for a while
>I have seen the fnords
>ELVIS IS KING!
but with bad kerning and spacing, so it looked like it said
>ELVIS! SKI'ING!
>Burma Shave ad parodies
>A series of complex runic glyphs... or someone's tag. Hard to tell.
