So I was listening to another podcast, as I do, and they were talking about laws that prosecuted pirates! They said that since Roman times, pirates have always been considered universal enemies. The Romans, they said, had a term for them: hostis humani generis. Ding, ding, ding! That's Latin! Now, of course the podcast was kind and translated the phrase for all those uneducated listeners, but I didn't need it...pirates are the enemy of the human race. Once again, Latin wins the day...and also, the Romans invented everything!
And now, here's my cat dressed as a pirate.
