Except that those are infinitives, right? I think we need the imperative mood.

"Pugnare, Copulare, aut Morere? Something like that?"

What I remember the shirt saying (from about 1985) is "Pugilisticum, Fornicatum, et Morti," but from what I've looked up in the online Latin dictionaries, that can't be it. Probably selective memory on my part.

Of course, I'm assuming that they guy who thought the thing up had any of it right to start with...
