I'm curious who read about the amazing find from Pompeii last month. It's definitely worth checking out if you didn't.

[jfbrko]

Honestly that back and forth graffiti between those two guys really drives the point home that social media smack talk isn't all that new.

"Snail Hut: Fast Food, Slow Animal"

[dragonfell]

"We two dear men, friends forever, were here.
If you want to know our names, they are Gaius and Aulus."

Imagine finding out that thousands of years later, everyone will know that you were best buds. Their names are immortalized, their friendship the stuff of legends.

[randybutternubbs]

my favorite of the graffiti is this: " If anyone does not believe in Venus, they should gaze at my girlfriend"

[aidanfarnan]

A Roman walks into a Tibern and holds up two fingers: "Five wines, please, barman."

[Lieutenant_Dude]

For anyone who is super grossed out by snails, think of them this way. You're basically cooking clams or oysters, but with a funny shaped shell.

[franklyqueso]

"What part of Rome are you from?"
"Brooklyn."

[TheMohawkNinja]

"I screwed the barmaid"

Imagine finding out that even 1000 years later, people will know that you screwed the barmaid. What a legend.

justinian: no marrying actresses
also justinian: *marries an actress*

My favorite ancient Graffiti Is 10 feet up on a wall and says "lt was hard to get up here."

[jacobfaski]

Do I like snails? No. Am I going to watch a video entirely about how they used to be fast food? Absolutely

[subnormality]

11:12 "Ate here most agreeably, and had a screw at the same time." Now that's a 5-star Yelp review if I ever saw one.

[skyler]

"Hello, I'd like an order of cocleas, with a Hippocrates Pepper to drink."
"Would you like to Ceasar size that?"
"I'm Roman, of course I would!"

[killbot]

"I'll have II numerus IX's, a numerus IX magna, a numerus VI with extra garum, a numerus VII, II numerus XLV's, I with caseus, and a magna wine"

[badweetabix]

"Women are in awe of me. Men are envious of me." - Bigus Dickus.

[fisharmor]

"Oh, cool, a show about snails! Nifty!"
"I SCREWED THE BARMAID"
Max, your little surprises never cease to amuse me. You're one of the best channels!

[viniciusdarosasilva]

-Uuuhhh can I get a uuuhhh...Cocleas?
-Sir, this is a Burger King

[KCV]

“The elite shall not marry actresses” huh? Hey, Justinian, I think your wife Theodora has something to say to you...

[thomascharky]

"If you're a plebian, or don't own a villa, you probably live in something called an insula"

*Housing, housing* never changes.
