his brotherinlaw was coming on
him like gangbustersLatin Non compos
mentis. Whas that mean Non carborundum illegitimi. Back to the mentis whas that mean Think about it. flailing like a schoolgirl in a fight to save
her life he interjects My girlfriend taught herself basic Latin on a lark she
was curious The only way I could learn
Latin and I did was to attend Catholic school But who wants to suffer religious indoctrination An besides I think its illegal for an
atheist to go to Catholic school whadaya think I think non compos mentis. Awright mentis brain compos a compost heap Shit for brains Not worth
composting That’s not bad. Mentally
incapable. My girl would have crushed it Shes damn good with wordsbreaks them
down to their roots Dazzles me
Unfortunately more often than notnot that Im trying to feed
her words she wouldnt knowlike Im knowingly trying to frustrate her it prompts her to be stern with me Joe, that word, I believe, has a Greek root. I
didnt study Greek. You know that. I
know she didnt study Greek but why would I know the word had a Greek root
So I always tell her as playfully
as I can but earnestly So what youre
telling me is the word is Greek to you which
always cracks me uptoo funny to let pass
She doesnt find it funny
She no matter how long weve been together she thinks I try to make fun of her shes been
made fun of all her life now shes
sensitiveso sensitive she sometimes thinks Im
making fun of her too I wouldnt Fucking no
Its funny I tell her Ya gotta laughlaugh at yourself An laughing at yourself you can find their perverse humour Dont take it personally When
other people try to goad youlaugh Theyre thinking theyre gonna get the better of
ya Shut em down By laughing at yourself you defray and deflate them You
dull their miserable cruel attacks
Theyre trying to make fun of you to
feel better about themselves
So you steal their laughternot
that theyll feel ashamed No But youve disarmed
them
Yacansay Thats so clever have it stutter an spill through your laughter An walk away Still laughing
When someone laughs harder at
themselves than others can theyve stolen their fire Theyve fucked
them
That’s a mouthful.
Its true
Non carborundum illegitimi.
Cryinoutloud Normally you cant remember shit when youre
taken off your train of thought
I didn’t hear a word you said. I was repeating it over and over to myself
until I heard you stop to breath.
Not a word
I cant listen to every word you
say. I have to parse my attention when you carry on, otherwise
I’d burn out.
You do recognise that you usually
have something to say, in depth?
If its something I know
about otherwise I shaddup listen and try
to learn
Non carborundum illegtimi.
Fuck
Awright
Was able to stumble through shit
for brains
Howbout illegitimate bad carborundum all lifeforms that we know of are carbon-based Non is non Non-carbon lifeforms are illegitimate Thats all I got
Don’t let the bastards grind you
down.
Non carborundum illegitimi Hmm Seems itd be illegitimi non carborundum Illegitimi The bastard part first
Might be. But the fact that I could
come up with the three Latin words is more than plenty for me. Your girlfriend can correct me.
Ill tell her If you need correcting shell tell me so Ill let you know I wouldnt want you walking
around with shit for brains
