I was reading what Simone de Beauvoir wrote in her book, The Force of Age about how Sartre pissed on Chateaubriands grave. I wonder how many have pissed on Sartres grave?

It looks pretty clean to me, maybe the only do it figuratively.

But it appears that they still leave love letters to them.

I can understand love letter to the two. After reading about Chateaubriand, I think I might have done the same thing.

Quoting Rob J Kennedy

I wonder how many have pissed on Sartres grave?

Well, a lot have pissed on his legacy, but this isn't really a grave that invites micturition. When I piss on a grave, I generally choose this one.
