LOL. Years ago, one of my father’s students gave him a tee shirt with a Latin saying on it. He was so proud of it and wore it everywhere. When I came to visit, knowing that I had taken four years of high school Latin, he asked me to translate it. He was much chagrined to find that it was a pun! Numquam ubi sub ubi= Never wear underwear!
