    Ruined? Those auctioneer will spin some artsy story and it will be a million pound art. It’s money laundering after all.

      You’re not wrong.

      The security guard has since been fired and the police have opened a criminal investigation.

    A conservationist should be able to remove the ink. I doubt it’s “ruined”.

    Edit: looked it up, apparently restoration cost about $5k. Not ruined, but definitely a costly little stunt.

    Article where the guard explains a bit

      He explains that some teenage girls handed him a pen and said draw eyes on it. And he was like, okay sure I guess.

    “ruined” in the eyes of the ones. “Upgraded” in the eyes of others.

    Taste in art is highly individual as can be seen here again.

      It was his first day, he only had the pen in his pocket.

      And what have we learned, kids?

      Always carry a pocketful of googly eyes!

    Sweet, the Russian army gets more meat for it’s grinder. You would think Russian serfs would be more careful about breaking the law during these mass sacrifice times.

      He was actually a veteran with significant injuries, so he’s already been through the grinder
