Showing, once again, that art, above all things, is mostly really fucking stupid.
William Shatner’s kidney stone.
How does anyone know it was a real Kevin Abosch photograph? Is there a photo of Kevin Abosch taking the photograph of him photographing the potato?
…bought by George “Oh-My” Takai.
It’s the potato neurosurgeons used for Joe Biden’s brain transplant.
I thought it was Hillary’s heart, but then I remembered she doesn’t have one.
I know bullshit when I see it.
This claim garnered tons of free publicity.
The next (real) jackass dupe will say “I’m getting a real Abosch tomato picture for only $100 grand! What a bargain!”
Huckster Abosch laughs all the way to the bank

Art? Sometimes stupid, sometimes beautiful and inspiring.
Drunken men with too much money and too little brains? Definitely Stupid.
Art “Critics” who pander to the above? Absolutely Worthlessly Stupid.

*shrieks and flings self headfirst into “safe space.”*
My dog is named Spud. Maybe BFH will do a portrait of Spud. We all cash in.
I applaud this.
By taking the requirement of even a minimal level of talent or effort from what constitutes ‘art’, we now know were to set the value of it and can set a place for it to die beside the memorial to the Pet Rock.
That way a new name can be attached top what is produced by those with talent willing to put forth effort.
That reminds me, the game Samarost 3 will be published soon.
I’ve currently got three potatoes in training (raised them since they were just an eye)….One can sing show tunes and the other two can tap dance….
Potato? I thought it was an aerial photograph of Bernie Sanders’ head…
“Bones!!!… You must… get this… out!!!… It… really hurts… when I… pee!…
