Tacitus pitilessly settled old scores with those he didn't like. For example, he despised Nero - and he enjoyed writing about his shortcomings:

'Nero hung around the streets of the city, its bordellos and taverns. He was dressed as a slave so noone would recognize him and with an entourage that would steal offered merchandise and abused whoever got into their way, while those affected where so clueless that even Nero got punched which left marks in his face.' - Ann 13,25
