Ancient Slackers

Call up bop and I'm bunting stomach.  Cocoa mop I chop chunking plummet.  It's funny how civilizations grow to be that great and then a thousand years later they suck worse than daytime television.  Like the Egyptians built all this really cool crap and now its all abandoned out in the desert (well, not the major stuff like pyramids and Luxor/Thebes).  I bet when they Romans built their collesium they probably thought, 'Damn, this thing is sick!  People are gonna love this place forever!' and then a thousand years later a quarter of it is missing and it's all broken all over the place.  It must've been really cool to be at the last Collesium event before everything went to crap.  I wonder who was in charge of the upkeep and fell asleep at the wheel.  I suppose every civic structure has an inherent shelf-life, but I think that there must've been one person along the way who was in charge of that stuff and he was like, "Dude, I'll vacuum tomorrow!" and then he never got around to it.  Now the Acropolis looks like shit, buddy.  Then the next guy that was in charge was like, "Whatever!  I didn't make this mess!  I'm not cleaning up this crap!" and then everybody afterwards pulled the same crap and now all the Greeks just say to themselves, "It's supposed to look like that.  It's all classically ruined.  Duh!"  Yeah.  That shit don't fly at my place.
