[Fark user image 286x400] The best part, to me, is that the dad is also wearing a hat. You can't make this up, the ancestors had a sense of humor. (1) Funniest 2 hours ago Valter: Who steals jewels? I thought at first they stole paintings and was worried for a moment. I'm into minerology and gemstone and while I respect the craftmanship of gem cutters and lapidarists it just breaks to the unrealized potential of a stone irrevocably unchanged, Raw or bust like Chef Raekwon RobotSpider (0) Funniest 2 hours ago French President Emmanuel Macron has called for tighter security at the museum since the theft. Oh, well, then you're on top of it. Well done. (5) Funniest 2 hours ago Was literally just a few hours ago. This was the balcony the entered. You can guess which window. Don Cherry's tailor (0) Funniest 2 hours ago I bet the thief was an Italian painter with brain damage from the lead in the paint he used. (1) Funniest 2 hours ago There were jokes about how security hasn't improved since that Italian frame maker swipped the Mona Lisa. He's lucky the Florence judge was sympathetic, the French were still guillotining people til the 60s. He got 7 months. Really put the louvre on the map though. First meme piece of art.

Modern gemcraft is just sooo much better than what they managed centuries ago. You'd be arrested today if you took those huge caret gems and did such an awful job cutting and setting them. jackmalice (0) Funniest Displayed 25 of 25 comments Enable JavaScript for Fark in order to vote for entries.
