Brooklyn neighborhoods Windsor Terrace and Kensington are flush with BackFat, and they aren't taking it lightly. A new tagger using the BackFat moniker is rampaging through the area, hitting every available space, the most egregious being on the Brooklyn Public Library on Fort Hamilton Parkway. NYPD is on the case, and believe that they "are coming close to finding him." If you think this is simply another nonsensical artistic graffiti tag with no meaning, think again. As the News explains, "Backfat is a colloquial term for the rolls of extra weight that bulge along the edges of a too-tight or ill-fitting bra." What a statement.
