Grusaite tells The Creators Project, "Street art was never really serious, there is always an element of a joke, some sense of displacement and self-irony.
How could something as spell-bindingly singular as Vitas' "7th Element" simply be the butt of a joke.
While elements of the joke have changed, the concept remains the same.
That "MacGyver" was already kind of a joke adds an element of redundancy to "MacGruber" that some of the younger postmodernists in this department might be tempted to call "meta".
Though the power of a joke comes from its freshness and element of surprise, to some degree people are nesters.
I even remember a comic sketch that involved a character silently miming every element of sniper assembly, a joke that only worked because everyone watching could be assumed to be familiar with the motions he was going through.
Elements of The Killing Joke have inspired or been incorporated into other aspects of Batman media, such as films and video games.
To top it off, the project was born out of a joke.
