Ukraine and the Russian invasion, 2022-24

[existentialist]

Some people like to pepper their sentences with a bit of Latin. I picked up a bit from Rome, Total War but don't know what the warmonger above is on about.

Bless.

 

[eatmorecheese]

I was forced to learn Latin for three years and fucking hated it. The teacher was a paedo, I learnt later.

Dominus dilexit puerum, the filthy cunt.

Derail over.

 

[existentialist]

It’s a grammar school thing isn’t it ?

I was a Free Boy, I'll have you know.

What is a Free Boy ?

 

[Cid]

I probably learned reductio ad absurdum on here tbh. I imagine shortly after I joined.

When this war is over, I am so going to go to Ukraine and get myself a selfie under a Stinky sign

I'm sitting far away from the screen and I genuinely can't tell if that's a shop or not, or if you've cycled to some place to quote more latin at us

 

[mojo pixy]

Not at all, let's use the enochian calls to summon a demon

in nomine patri et fili et spiritus sancti...

 

[TopCat]

in nomine patri et fili et spiritus sancti...

Can't we just use English unless doing otherwise really adds something and is still accessible?

 

[mojo pixy]

No problem, will do. Ukrainian and Russian may crop up from time to time I suppose.

 

[The39thStep]

Young freeman.

 

[keybored]

No.

 

[The39thStep]

No.

No

 

[The39thStep]

Well, according to the BBC

the SBU state security service said it was following several possible causes for the crash, which included sabotage as well as a technical malfunction or breach of flight rules.

 

[keybored]

No

[nogojones]

wondered that myself.

Well, he could have just said that straight out and there would have been no confusion.
