How is this number 1?

And, didn't they engage in pedophilia? That somehow doesn't crack the top 10?

No Caligula, no care.

There was a lot of weird stuff that went on back in that time.

The first piss of the morning had teeth whitening properties due to the urea. There was a quote from one Roman politician about another that was along the lines of "you can tell how much piss he jas drunk by his white teeth."

You can say you love things generally and get away with a lot. It's when you get specific that things get weird.

Saying "I love children" is GREAT. I mean, who doesn't love them.

But come on...who doesn't REALLY love 12 year olds?

Friends went. One such place was a whorehouse. Or whatever they were called then. The paintings, they were told, were essentially a menu of services. Lol

Gladiators would bathe in olive oil and scrap the excess off, bottle it, and sell it as perfume for women.
