A vending machine selling fake IDs has appeared in the New York subway.<br /><br />For one day only, commuters found themselves able to purchase bogus identification for $20.<br /><br />However, closer inspection of the quirky credentials showed them to feature ridiculous details only the most lenient of officials would accept.<br /><br />The machine was the brainchild of so-called "meme artist" Sunday Nobody, who claims his prank was not against the law.<br /><br />He explains: "I made a fake ID vending machine and set in up in New York City for people to come use. I checked with lawyers and it's not illegal to do this.<br /><br />"First I bought an $800 ID printer from Amazon, and once I had that I used my phone to take an ID photo of myself.<br /><br />"I couldn't use real states because it's a felony, but I made up this state which I think we should make real which is Florhio, and we could just combine Florida and Ohio into one superstate."<br /><br />Clearly aiming for a tongue-in-check aesthetic, the artist added a dirt bike and alligator at the bottom of the ID.<br /><br />To make them look official he added a hologram that "had a bunch of eagles on it".<br /><br />Sunday Nobody adds: "The lawyers I talked to said I should add a "not a" in front of (the words) Driver's License and also add a legal disclaimer that says it is not an ID."<br /><br />He also mocked up other imaginary states, Dracula-themed 'Westsylvania' and ‘District of Chef’, where "the rat from Ratatouille is the governor".<br /><br />Those who missed the one day subway appearance in April can order IDs from the artist's website for $20.
