There's gotta be a latin translation (or equivalent) for "Punk" right?

Fabricate the day miscreant!

Actually wondered about that. The whole quote is "Go ahead, punk; make my day."

The line Junior uses (which I shamelessly snatched and carried onto another thread) probably has no basis in proper Latin grammar...but can make someone like me, who can figure out the intent, smile.

And that may be, at bottom, the real intent.

O CIVILE ERGO FORTIBUS ES EN ERO

O NOBILE DEUS NOBUS ES DEUS TRUX

SI VATES INEM CAUSEN DUX

See what I mean?
