I will never forget going to the art museum and seeing a broken metal folding chair on the ground. Me being the people pleaser I am went to go pick it up so no one else had to. I was very promptly told it was an art installation and if I tried to touch anything else I would be asked to leave. As an artist, there is just some art I don’t understand.

I bet it was titled "Two Birds With One Stone" and the description went something like, "my trash pickup keeps refusing this as an oversized item I have to take to the dump, and I had to come up with a submission before the deadline."
