A painting by the grandson of Sigmund Freud sold this week for 33 million dollars. The painting is of an overweight London woman pleasuring herself. Honestly I don't see why it was so great...must be the name..but art is in the eye of the beholder and someone thought enough of it to cough of some major coin. At least she wasn't an emaciated woman.

33 Million Dollar Painting Sets Record
That...was worth 33 million? It's just downright ugly. Why would anyone want to have a painting of ...that on their wall?
Oh, there are people who are heavily into that sort of stuff. Never deny.
Wow, that's roughly 33 million dollars more than anybody should ever pay for a painting.
😕 Why would anyone pay that much for a painting?
I doubt anyone said "I have 33 million dollars to blow, what should I buy?" More likely, they wanted that painting (probably because they thought it was funny) and happened to have it lying around.
I would guess.
😮dd:...who the hell would want THAT ugly piece of work? It's gotta be the ugliest painting I've ever seen, EVER.
And a 33 million dollar world record for it? What. The. HELL.
