Today, I showed my new tattoo to my friends. It's supposed to be a deep, philosophical quote in Latin, symbolizing strength and resilience. My friend, who happens to be fluent in Latin, started laughing hysterically. Turns out, it actually says, "You are dumb." FML

Today, at my mum’s birthday dinner, my brother-in-law used a Latin phrase in the wrong way. Since we all have learned Latin, I taught him the correct way until everyone facepalmed in my direction. He made a rather nice wordplay and now I’m known as the educated idiot who is too stupid to understand a simple joke. FML

If you have a friend fluent in Latin, why wouldn't you consult them when getting a tattoo in the language they're fluent in? Common sense really isn't all that common anymore.

It's 2024. If you haven't learned from nearly two decades of memes and social media posts that getting a tattoo in a language that you aren't fluent in is a bad idea, that shit's on you. You might wanna start saving to have it removed. Or at least covered up.

LOL This is too good to not share. User "FinkiusMaximus" messaged me this gem: "Speaking as a Latin teacher myself, while we'll often help with translating mottoes, we generally have a policy against translating tattoos." That just makes you a jerk...
