So drawing a penis on the bathroom stall is classical art?

[–] Quill7513@slrpnk.net 18 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Frankly yes. We have always been doing all the same things we've always done. Some of the cave painting arts we've found and ponder what the people who painted them thought of the world, the prehistoric painter was thinking the equivalent of "For good time call Becky"

There's archeological evidence of sling stones being found with "May this hit you in the dick" carved on them in Latin, so yeah. Dick jokes are a time-honored human tradition!

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 18 points 1 year ago

Apparently there's a section where somebody has written in Latin something to the equivalent of, "my brother's dick is bigger than your brother's dick", which seems to be a really weird flex.

Well, I think that's a joke name, sir. Like Naughtius Maximus?

So they were quite advanced in the humour department, too. Nice.
