Rat’s Painting Sells for $850,000 at Auction
The latest abstract work by legendary painter Winston the rat has been sold at a Sotheby’s auction for a whopping $850,000. The painting, titled “Squeak,” is a clear extension of his Blue Period.
“The way the strokes cris-cross on the canvas – it’s as if he’s crying out for something real in a world full of pretense,” says art critic Simon Jennings. “Ah, who am I kidding, it’s just rat prints.”

REPORT: Guinea Pigs Engaging In Insider Trading
By Scott Friedstein, FluffPo Correspondent
According to a report filed by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, guinea pigs have been knowingly participating in insider trading in a brazen attempt to make a profit. The report cited several prominent guinea pig investors who have engaged in suspicious stock activity as of late.
“There was a massive sell-off of PiggyCorp stock right before it went under,” says SEC spokesman Paul Cohen. “Guinea pigs are cute, but that can’t be a coincidence. We have every reason to believe that the PiggyCorp liquidation was an inside job. And as for the piggies who profited – well, let’s just say their days are numbered.”
