it's happened waaaayyyy more than three times. happens all the freaking time. and it's always happened.

Actually, studies done of graffiti found in pompei's baths suggest that drawing dicks on the wall is something "we've" always done.

Funnily enough I caught a guy in Pompei touching the frescos. I'm a mild guy but I couldn't help but think that, as far as mankind is involved, killing that idiot on the spot would have have a net positive impact on the world.

Just wait for the next volcano... that'll take care of 'em. That'll take care of a whole lot of 'em.
