That's all the ones I liked anyway. There's a lot of them http://www.pompeiana.org/Resources/Ancient/Graffiti%20from%20Pompeii.htm

@lapis I've always been fond of "The petty thieves ask for Vatia as aedile", myself.
@ghost_bird Shoot I think I missed that one.
@lapis It’s not on the page you linked to, but it gets into a lot of textbooks.
@ghost_bird I have a book on pompeii I haven't read yet that's been sitting on my shelf haunting me ;_;
@lapis They do that. I should probably read Mary Beard's book, which is said to be very good.
