Unless he's Samoan (not from the looks), it's probably some honkey fatass from Ohio or Alabama

Another fatality of social media culture.

Why was there no barrier around the thing?

You'd be SHOCKED how close you can get to famous art, at least in Europe.

I could have easily touched the Statue of David and others. An alarm will go off... but it's too late.

Most of the stuff at the Met and MoMa is the same. The only thing between me and Starry Night was a velvet rope

Just say you were protesting climate change.

I'm not sure why people are laughing about this. I hope Italy turns in to Singapore where their national treasures are concerned.

Seems to me like if you make a chair it ought to at least hold up to being sat on.

 

[Glenn's take]

Do we know if he was protesting climate change because if he was it's okay.

Did they arrest the moron? What a fat arse lol

Two Climate jokes in 13 posts, in a thread started by a Fox news story. Good job! Who could see that coming?

At least they were able to restore the chair and put it back on display. They should prosecute the morons who did it, and then scrammed after doing it, if they can find them.

Lol!

Now the truth comes out: the chair was rumored to be Woke, and the fat ass was a pardoned January 6th rioter!

How’s that for “Fair and Balanced?”

At least it was a fairly fast, fat American, if American.

Destroying art in the name of Climate Change has been around since the 80's.

Without my glasses, I initially read that as “future pole vaulter.”

And I was like “WTF?”

 

[funKYcat75]

Future pole dancer?

Ironically, she would never do chair dances.

I'm just going to say it: a crystal-studded chair sounds really stupid.
