A stupid thing that never fails to make me giggle is pronouncing English words like Latin. “Wocabulary” and “Werbs” is always entertaining, but I broke one student the other day by telling them to watch something on their “telewision”.

So I'm in highschool Latin and whenever our Latin teacher asks what case a noun is and no one can figure it out bc we're all stupid, he counts down from three then we all yell "probably ablative" and start clapping for ourselves Over 80% of the time it's actually ablative

My friend designed a shirt with the Nike swoop that says “Just Fac It” and I want to buy one so bad

Ahh, high school latin. I remember fondly watching Mean Girls in class and having to write an essay comparing the burn book to the works of catullus...

Finally hit that point in the year where the students are getting used to me and my weird sense of humor.

My Latin was thirty years ago so I KNOW you weren't my teacher, but you and she would have gotten along famously. Our final involved a full-on dinner complete with couches and a roast pig. They wouldn't let us actually light the fire in the classroom, though, more's the pity.

On the topic of Latin club t-shirts... Way back when I was in high school our teacher told us a Latin "yo mama" joke would have been "your mother sells vegetables." So naturally our shirts featured a cartoon I drew of Metella from Cambridge Latin holding one of those stadium concession boxes that go round your neck, full of vegetables.
