A Heart Warming Story for the Entire Family

This reminds me of the Sokal hoax:

Two California teenagers who recently visited the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art were less than impressed by some of the exhibits and wondered if they could do better.

And thus a scheme was hatched: They placed a pair of eyeglasses on the floor, stood back and watched as, within minutes, visitors regarded their prank as a work of art, with some even taking photos of the fake installation.

Maybe there's hope for the yoots of today, after all.

They should have tried to sell "the installation" before spilling the beans....

They are young, yet. They give every indication of being able to learn from their mistakes.
