    People have done dumb shit for fame and glory ever since ancient times. Remember Herostratus?

    He did something incredibly stupid to get famous.

    And it worked.

        Did you ever see the episode of Futurama where Bender had that big ass “Remember Me!” tomb built? He’s like that except instead of tricking a planet and becoming a pharaoh to have slaves build things he burned down a temple of Artemis.

        It seems to have kind of worked.
