Over the weekend, a group of street artists took advantage of New York’s desolate, snow-caked roads in order to paint a crude memorial honoring David Bowie. Unfortunately, the tribute is bad and makes no sense.

The memorial went up at the corner of Houston and Bowery in Manhattan. Clearly you can see where this is going. It’s all immediately becoming very clear to you. Just pronounce it phonetically: David Boh-ee. Bauer-y Street. David....... Bowery........

Rest in peace, David Bowery. The world will never forget your name. Which is David Bowery.
