If it's not Baroque, then it's not the Trevi Fountain

Legend has it that if you toss a coin in here, you'll come back to Rome. I am going to start a new legend that says if you give me five dollars, you will also come back to Rome. (Five dollars poorer.) Also, damn, the citizens of Rome must be sick of all us tourists everywhere. Sure, the money is nice, but you can't even enjoy the fountain because there are too many damn people. They should change the legend to say "if you throw a coin in the Trevi fountain, your ear will fall off." Related, we have these "whisper" headsets we have to wear while on tour, and they are super annoying. I am left eared, and there's only one ear piece, fitted specifically for the right ear. I call bullshit.
