Although I no longer have the opportunity, office shenanigans were something my friends and I used to thoroughly enjoy. And we were pretty good at it, too.For example, in the eighties, I once organized an office chair ballet – complete with costumes and choreography – in the marble-floored lobby of the office where I worked. And fake announcements over the office P.A. system, office supply sculpture competitions, food fights in the break room, prank calls from other people’s offices, office-to-office rubber band fights, and all other manner of silliness and immaturity were regular occurrences. While work is considerably less funny these days, at least I don’t have as many weird bruises to explain (and I’m at least slightly less likely to get fired)!
These guys, however, have brilliantly (and literally) turned their office nonsense into an art form. I’ll let them explain:
“His name is Chris. His name is Francesco. They love recreating famous paintings. All of the painting remixes are done at our office in NYC. The only rules are that all props must be things found in the office and all editing must be done on a phone.” -Introduction on FoolsDoArt.com
I can’t imagine they get much work done, but I love their creativity. And if you enjoy their work, you might also want to check out the photography of Bill Gekas about whom I wrote last February. Similar idea, very different results.

I was thinking about that, but then I realized I have wings, a baton, and a gas mask in my office just because.
