| "Wash Me" Graffiti | comment |
A very common, but also kinda childish, joke; a person sees a very dirty vehicle, and as a far from subtle message to the owner, writes "Wash me" (or something else to draw attention to the vehicles state, like "I'm dirty") in the dirt. Sometimes accompanied by a smiley icon or exclamation mark. Can also be done with other dirty objects, like a window, but vehicles are the most common. Far more harmless than usual graffiti, since no paint is involved, and all it takes to get rid of it again is, well, washing. It's a form of reverse graffiti. |

Corner Gas: In the episode "Wash Me", Wanda, as part of her awkward flirting with the milk delivery man she has a crush on, writes "Wash Me" on the side of Hank's dirty truck to be funny. Hank takes umbrage at this, as he uses his truck as an improvised notepad, and the graffiti attracts the attention of some overeager kids running a carwash. | |

In the episode "Dog Dale Afternoon" of King of the Hill, Dale borrows Hank's lawnmower and abuses it— going to a burger joint's drive-thru and filling it with soda instead of gas. Hank and Bobby find the mower in a not-so-great part of town, and when Hank sees "Wash me" written on it, he hurriedly tries to cover it from Bobby's sight. | |

Big City Greens: One episode's subplot is Tilly noticing a dirty car with this kind of graffiti written on its back while the family is stuck in a traffic jam, and Cloudcuckoolander that she is she acts as if the car actually was asking her to wash it (the fact the rear lights look like a sad face with all of the grime piled on them helps). She eventually takes over a fire truck's water cannon to do the washing, and the car looks "happy" after she sprays it. | |

Early on in Life Is Strange, you can write "I'm so dirty" + a smiley face on the window of a camper van that belongs to Frank Bowers as an optional photo. If you do so, the graffiti will be there for the rest of the game. | |

Discussed in the episode "Helpless" of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Giles is quizzing Buffy on various crystals and their mystical properties, and that amethyst is used for "cleansing one's aura." Buffy snarks "Okay, so how do you know if one's aura is dirty? Does somebody come by with a finger and write "Wash Me" on it?" | |
