Sometimes you feel like a nut.

OK, which one of you Scissorheads did this?

COPENHAGEN, Denmark (AP) — A Danish artist who was was given a pile of money by a museum with which to create a piece of artwork, submitted two empty canvases — titled “Take the Money and Run.”

Jens Haaning was given the equivalent of nearly $84,000 in Danish kroner and euro bank notes by the Kunsten Museum of Modern Art in Aalborg.

Good job, well done! You get to buy the first round of drinks, Mkay?

  1. Now the Museum can create an NFT of a photo of it and sell it to cryptofreaks for $100k! Win Win!

    I think that the museum will not be amused, but the whole episode reminds me of an old nut joke. What is the difference between beer nuts and deer nuts? Well beer nuts are 49 cents but deer nuts are just under a buck…

    I guess Haaning can cross off all the folks on his patron list, after that stunt.

    NON_FUNGIBLE TOKEN; fungible sounds a lot like sponegible, hence NON-SPONGEBLE TOKEN, and that doesn’t sound right either.

    • The Banksy painting that half-shredded itself? Is back up for auction, and may go for 3-4 times it’s original price…

      There is too much money sloshing around at the top. Time to offer them “A wealth cut or a shave from the razor of Democracy”
