Some years back, half the buses on the Island were covered, in the spaces where the ads ought to be, in Christian graffiti. You know the sort of thing - Bible quotes and blah blah blah about Jesus saving us and so on.
All in the same sharpied handwriting.
And eventually I got tired of it and shot off an email to the MTA complaints department. They sent back a form letter asking for the specific bus line, to which I replied that it was epidemic on all Staten Island buses and that given the uniformity and the sheer amount of graffiti per bus it really must be somebody at the depot.
And do you know, that worked? Within a month the graffiti was gone and never came back. I should've filed that complaint a lot earlier rather than gritting my teeth every time I got on the bus. Live and learn, I guess.
