I don't not hate this. A lot.

All that's standing between me and my weekend (which starts Wednesday night, thank you) is the Pro Murena. Once again, it comes down to me and Cicero, and fifty pages of him blathering on about how he is the best thing ever.

It would be okay, if he weren't such a tool. Or if he made sense. Because even when i know what it says, i don't have any idea what he's saying half the time. Observe the following quote:

"And this it not only not praiseworthy, it is not even allowable, that we may not defend even those who are most entirely strangers to us when our friends accuse them."

Not only...not...may not...So, we're inside Mumbo's hat, and Raven is inside Mumbo's hat, inside Mumbo's hat? *clutches brain*

It's magic. If you think about it too much your brain will explode. </ Runaways mode>

"And it's not only uncool, it's also not even allowable, that we aren't allowed to defend guys we don't even know when our friends accuse them." Which is sort of a Bill and Ted interpretation, isn't it? "Be excelllent to each other!"

Wow, I didn't need that last l. *sends it back to Raito*

haha, he'll have fun with it I'm sure.

my consolation is that maybe 2000 years from now, people will be forced to translate my livejournal, and it will make just as little sense to them as this crap does to me.

only, you know, mine will involve porn. so, improvement.

...Now there's some serious incentive to make up crazy shit for your journal, no?

It isn't like I really have to make it up, to be honest. It kind of does that all by itself.

Or I could just link a bunch of your Greed/everythingunderthesun, that'll blow their sheltered classicist minds.

And of course, due to incomplete preservation of information they'll think you were writing about real people, and that people in our era had some really weird features.

what's really grating is that if Cicero himself does not survive, I WILL HAVE PRESERVED HIM >.

And that, m'dear, will be his greatest triumph.
