The very fact that a scandal mesmerizes and titillates a society makes it an ideal motivator for focusing public attention on a particular problem within that society. 丑闻能够吸引并激发一个社会群体的极大兴趣这一事实,使丑闻成为把公众的注意力引向某一社会问题的理想因素。
An inscription might suffice, an epitaph that titillates like dirty talk. 一段墓志铭,一段挑逗且下流的墓志铭,大致是足够。
