Latin Phrases to Use While Making Love.

Slappy and I had a conversation and, through the subsequent curiosity, I've composed a list:

Quis custodiet ipsos custopdes. For the voyeurs, as a way to remind them that the audience is sometimes a show in itself, the Patrons the Players, and the sexual experiences of the perverse loner a form of entertainment for some greater and more deviant watchman.

Caveat emptor. For purchased love. Say this sweetly to a prostitute and she'll (pretend to) melt in your hands, but say it too as a reminder to yourself that the results of said $50 relationship may leave you with less than you bargained for.

Habeas corpus. For use in a courtroom sexual scenario or if the person you're boning is a judge, jurist, or lawyer. It's clearly a legal term, but the underlying meaning of "you'll have the body" is good lubricant for the grand sexual acts to follow. Mens rea is also good in a similar situation, usually when you want to imply the naughtiness of your beau.

Magna cum laude. Hilarious, in and of itself. Works best at, after, or before a graduation or when any sort of academic-themed roleplay takes place. Its meaning isn't necessary here, just the hilarity of the words themselves.

Pro bono. For the public good! And also because it sounds like boner.

Quid pro quo. One thing for another. Maybe a sweet sense of belonging? It could come off as a desirable sentiment and it sounds musical in itself.

Semper fidelis. For military-themed sexual misconducts, maybe while in some saucy uniforms. Its underlying meaning can also leave the chick wondering about future experiences and the possiblity of a "relationship" where, hopefully, none exist.

Tempus fugit. Time flies, especially when you're having fun. "I can't wait any longer, babe" is categorically covered with this smooth phrase.

Veni, vidi, vici. The classic: I came, I saw, I conquered. Perhaps best reordered as "Vidi, vici, veni."

I endorse this list and retain sole rights in its creation. David, on the other hand, compiled it nicely, so many thanks to himstuff.

I did nothing and it continues to be Slappy's project.

This is a fantastic reference, and being so, it deserves a pin.

Hmmm, try Veni Vidi Velcro. For use of someone you have tied up.
For randomness!

How about "Volo omnes dentes tuas in unam magnam rem confundere"?

I want all your teeth in one big confusing thing?

(I was never that good at Latin.)

Close, but not quite.

It's "I want all your teeth to fuse together into one big thing". Or, a looser translation would be "Shut up".

(I've got my last GCSE Latin exam coming up in <24 hours...)
