Stupid Criminals: Burglars Use Black Magic Marker On Their Faces As Disguise (VIDEO)

Two burglars are in the running for the worst disguise ever after they were arrested trying to rob a home with permanent black magic marker scrawled all over their faces. As MSNBC's Willie Geist put it,

How about a Halloween mask? There everywhere. It's not that hard. Permanent marker is literally the very last thing you would want to use to hide your identity while committing a crime... America, we can do better.

I like the sort of Batman-esq­ue, spiky pattern to the drawing on the bearded guy's face. Show's a little artistic imaginatio­n and creativity­. The drawing on the guy with the long face has a little bit of flair around the right eye, but is otherwise pretty bland.

And they both manage to completely out-stupid stupid. I can just see them in their jail cells "Note to self - do not smoke massive amounts of weed and then plan and attempt to carry out a burglary."

They didn't get the concept of "permanent­" on the marker! They were stuck with the concept of "magic"! My son who is 37 now learned this the hard way when he was about 4! ROFLMAO! I forwarded this story to him and asked him to tell this story to his kid!

I'm sorry, but this is one of those moments that you'd have to use the incorrect spelling; these two are just plain ol' "ignant."
