I can't even imagine carving my name into a tree, let alone The Colosseum. Where the hell do people get off doing stuff like that? Trashy.

It needs to be more. There’s no excuse for shit behavior like this

What I'm reading is that I can afford to get my name on the colosseum. Where do I sign up?

Small price for immortality (as in, being remembered). I wonder what Rome is going to do, leave the markings as is, or try to remove it.
