Today, my 17 year old told me he wanted to pursue a career in art. Knowing he's extremely talented at drawing, I congratulated him and told him to pursue that dream. A few hours later I learn that he's been arrested for spray painting graffiti dicks all over a school wall. Well, he's famous now. FML

I'm really sorry, but this is hilarious :D But FYL indeed

Please encourage him to pursue his interest in art by NOT spray painting private property! Not only is it illegal, if he decides to try and tag trains he could be risking his life...

Look on the bright side OP, at least you didn't get arrested :D

That's not really a bright side since OP didn't do anything that would get them arrested in the first place.

Idk man, just trying to look for the bright side ;-;

Sounds like you have a real Pablo "Dick"- casso on your hands.

Pablo Picasso? More like Pablo Dickcasso

#9.....one thing that I've learnt in FML is that.....word tricks like yours and mine(#5) don't always work. Most of the time they get down voted.

Ok this one wasn't as bad as gra-fin-ci.

#16 I know, here a lot of people can't take jokes...That's why 9gag's the best for me. FML is fun though.

34- Most of the time it's because the joke isn't funny. People have different senses of humor. Not finding jokes funny isn't the same thing as not being able to take a joke.

Pretty sure it got downvoted because the comment above says the same thing and they got all the upvotes instead. :P

I'm basking in the glory of commenting first Sorry about not getting up votes for the identical comment though

The way this is worded makes you sound like his concerned mother

I agree if he's just tagging, and painting dicks, but if he's actually going to paint art, I say go for it. Society is too bland; make it colorful.

29, I agree that society is too bland and needs more color, but it's still not a good idea to paint private property without the owner's consent.

Well I feel it's the same kind of risk musicians take when trespassing to have an impromptu concert on a rooftop or some other place. Artists aren't supposed to follow the rules, that's what make them artists. (Not playing devil's advocate here, just like freedom of expression)

I read it as graffiti "ducks" at first, imagined little yellow ones all over the wall and thought it was quite cute... Well op, unless he becomes the next Banksy this art won't make much of a career...
