At the Joslyn Art Museum the other day, this 20-something year old girl actually walked up to one of the Monet paintings (snow at giverny), reached out, placed her finger on the painting, and slowly ran her finger down the length of the painting. When told not to touch the artwork, her boyfriend (presumably) turned and said "see?" at which point she giggled and unapologetically apologized to the protection officer.
what is wrong with some people!??

wow, how depressing. what is wrong with young people today?!
Dude, what the fuck is that about? People like that shoult be shot. Not because of their blatant disregard for a priceless--not to mention fragile--painting, but because if they're that ignorant at this point in their lives, there's absolutely nothing that can be done for them.
I wonder how the conversation between her and her boyfriend went:
him: I don't think you're allowed to touch the paintings.
her: don't be silly. Why else would they have a museum?
Maybe she thought it was a scratch and sniff.
haha.
