In my quest for the obscure I came across this database of Ancient Roman graffiti found in the ruins of Pompeii:

It reminds me of the website Texts From Last Night, Texts From Nights Long Past, perhaps? -

The completely out-of-place 'Once you are dead, you are nothing' between all the raunchiness is kinda hilarious, honestly.

There is an interesting mix of lines that make me remember that these people were writing from a very different cultural context and lines that directly mirror things people write today. I agree, some of them really do remind me of 'Texts From Last Night'. I suppose in many ways we are not that different from the humans of two thousand years ago...
