I saw this and thought it might be worth ten bucks...
As many often would, a dealer came by one day to show Picasso a painting that was supposed to be an original Picasso. He wanted to see if it was genuine or a fake.
Picasso glanced at it and without hesitating said, "fake." Later that day, two more were identified as fakes.
The second day, a different dealer came by. Picasso hardly looked up. "Fake!" he bellowed.
After the dealer left, a visiting friend asked, "Picasso, why did you say that painting was a fake? I was here, in this studio, last year when I saw you paint it."
Picasso didn't hesitate. He turned to his friend and said, "I often paint fakes."
