Nothing does. If it has to disintegrate, isn’t this sort of tribute the best way?

I hadn’t heard about it being closed off. I personally wouldn’t have kissed it (which is entirely because of my fear of germs), but people should be able to exuberantly express themselves in such a manner. It’s not hurting anyone (except maybe for the germ thing but that’s their choice) and the stone erosion could just be chalked up as part of the tribute to his popularity.

I actually love Proper Jenny’s idea about cairns. Smooching stones and leaving them there would be an acceptable substitute to me.

I don’t know that I’d want to live up to what Oscar Wilde would do. He did a lot of stupid and self-destructive things. But I do love him a very lot.

That would be a good compromise! I would totally do that! I hope they do that. I would feel absolutely fine about that as a compromise. I would scour the world for the perfect stone to bring.

Yeah, that is the most nonsense thing Rupert Everett said altogether. Those are the words of a man who is trying to resolve cognitive dissonance. I’m just heartbroken I didn’t get to the grave before they put the glass. :(:(:(:(

Yes! If they could do it in a regulated way that would be less awesomely exuberant but still acceptable. How do they manage with the Blarney Stone?

Also, what? Stonehenge? You can go kiss Stonehenge? That’s a weird thing to want to do.
