De clunibus magnis amandis oratio
Mixaloti equitis

mehercle!
(By Hercules!)
Rebecca, ecce! tantae clunes isti sunt!
(Rebecca, behold! Such large buttocks she has!)

amica esse videtur istorum hominum rhythmicorum.
(She appears to be a girlfriend of one of those rhythmic-oration people.)
sed, ut scis,
(But, as you know)
quis homines huiusmodi intellegere potest?
(Who can understand persons of this sort?)
colloquuntur equidem cum ista eo tantum, quod scortum perfectum esse videtur.
(Verily, they converse with her for this reason only, namely, that she appears to be a complete whore.)
clunes, aio, maiores esse!
(Her buttocks, I say, are rather large!)
nec possum credere quam rotondae sint.
(Nor am I able to believe how round they are.)
en! quam exstant! nonne piget te earum?
(Lo! How they stand forth! Do they not disgust you?)
ecce mulier Aethiops!
(Behold the black woman!)

magnae clunes mihi placent, nec possum de hac re mentiri.
(Large buttocks are pleasing to me, nor am I able to lie concerning this matter.)
quis enim, consortes mei, non fateatur,
(For who, colleagues, would not admit,)
cum puella incedit minore medio corpore
(Whenever a girl comes by with a rather small middle part of the body)
sub quo manifestus globus, inflammare animos
(Beneath which is an obvious spherical mass, that it inflames the spirits)... (more at link above)

I found this link online today and thought it was absolutely hilarious.
Some of you might too! :)

Enjoy.

Magnae clunes mihi placent, nec possum de hac re mentiri.

[retrokitten]

This part really cracked me up...

(Beneath which is an obvious spherical mass, that it inflames the spirits)...

[DaughterOfAnIwoJimaVet]

Ping.

[Constitution Day]

*still laughing*

[Vigilantcitizen]

Hey cool. New tagline material.

[CounterCounterCulture]

Post of the day

[Semper Paratus]

Next will be "Big Butted Woman" in Farsi.

[Constitution Day]

WFTD ping.

[Constitution Day]

I had a feeling it might be.

[Vigilantcitizen]

Maybe we should conduct an investigative debate into this matter, complete with pictures.

All in the name of science and intellectual honesty, of course.

[Constitution Day]

Or "Trashy Women" in Urdu.

[The Coopster]

Ping for later. Hilarious!

[Snuffington]

colloquuntur equidem cum ista eo tantum, quod scortum perfectum esse videtur. (Verily, they converse with her for this reason only, namely, that she appears to be a complete whore.)

Now THAT is true poetry. I've finally found a way to enjoy rap!

[Chad Fairbanks]

Niiiiiiiice... LOL

[Constitution Day]

To be honest, I was a bit wary of doing an image search on "Baby Got Back" from my work computer.

=:^O

[dfwgator]

colloquuntur equidem cum ista eo tantum, quod scortum perfectum esse videtur.

Methinks you got a few of the letters mixed up there. ;)
