Not sure how many of you guys out there are big Adam Ruins Everything fans but I love it.
Was watching the episode “Adam Ruins Art” and this bit just hit me like a ton of bricks.
So my boss once robbed a museum to prove a point and honestly, I think she is my new role model.
If this gets notes I’ll tell the full story

Many years ago, my boss was working at this museum and they had these original Churchill documents on display. These documents are worth millions of dollars… The only thing separating the public from these documents was a sheet of glass secured with 4 philips head screws. Seriously. No security guards in the room, no cameras, just an easily removable piece of glass.
My boss pointed out the security concern, but she wasn’t taken seriously, so she took matters into her own hands.
She bought a ticket and pretended to be a guest. She entered through the main entrance with a huge drill clearly visible on her belt, went straight to the documents and opened the case with the drill. (While wearing gloves,) she removed the documents, put them in a folder, reattached the glass, and walked out the main exit. Literally no one even questioned her.
She immediately went around to the back of the museum, entered using the staff entrance and went straight to her boss’s office. She dropped the folder on his desk and said “I just stole these in 15 minutes“
Once he was done being mad at her, he listened and the museum increased security.
Donald Featherstone, creator of the plastic lawn flamingo, and his wife Nancy spent at least three decade of their 37 years of marriage wearing complete matching outfits made by Nancy herself.
They would race each other to their shared closet in the morning and the winner would get to pick the outfit for the day. (x)
He not only looked like the guy who invented the lawn flamingo, he acted like it.
