@Crease imagineering badges over here so I put in a coupla orders:
Orders are one thing,
…another.
A Latin phrase should come to mind but I’m coming up short.

The phrase that immediately comes to mind is from one of Henry Beard’s books on the subject and would likely violate Community Guidelines.
You guys are gonna have to trust me on this. In some odd way the linked post is responsive to both your comments.
And at the bottom of it are two of my favorite Captured on Wyze sound clips ever.
I hadn’t heard them in months and months and months. What a pleasure to come across them now.
(It was a tough weekend and it’s weird that its being displaced so fast.)
(We shouldn’t pretend that this is normal.)

I don’t know. Does it make you feel alive!
No need to over-complicate.
Do that thing.
Does writing silly phrases in a dead language make me feel alive? Maybe not so much, but there’s some pleasure to be derived from the journey of rekindling or gaining knowledge. Plus, since it’s a classical language, Latin can help to class up an otherwise crude turn of phrase. That appeals to my inner-12-year-old sense of humor.
Sumerian cuneiform resurrection!
𐎨 𐎠𐎬 𐎠𐎫𐎨𐎵𐎤!
Who am I to judge?
Take two
Whatever floats your boat!
Why do you call me wolf, frog?
This is just innately appealing, somehow.
Thanks to @ssummerlin[1] (who’s apparently happy as a in ), @dave27[2], and @peepeep[3][4] for the inspiration.
Hey, I’ve been accused of this more than most people. I deserve the badge too!
