Hmm… I’m a bit short upon being a total expert in these matters, but upon further study it seems to say:
LEG(IO) ONLY HATE
OUR CLANWhich I take to mean: "You fool! Now leg it over to your nearest McDonald’s (or equivalent) and buy up the ‘big banquet deal’ (which now costs a fortune, these days), such that you can share it with your mates, and we can all take some joyful pics for our good-friend “FACE-FLUMPF,” or whatever our Greco-Romantic equivalent is. :D
Problem…?
Romans were actually very fond of abbreviations, so what it means is
LE[BI]G
MAC
Quintus Tarentinus was a big hit at the time
(the middle line is just a stylized representation of Brett sitting on the chair, flanked by Jules and Vincent, about to execute him)
OMG… I’m almost (but not quite) at your level of “schooling them right back for the LULZ.” This is why YOU are the MAN, PJ, whilst I remain a half-eaten bale of donkey-grade hay. lol…
Alright, but for real, I’m not exactly sure what you’re riffing upon there, exactly, neither fictional or historic.
Oof, for example, my personal understanding of Roman times was ignited by “I, Claudius,” when I was a little sprat. (I did kinda like the naked ladies, tho!)
lmao, just playing along with your joke!
The reference is to Pulp Fiction, a film by Quentin Tarantino that was made in the 1990s. It’s very excellent if you haven’t seen it. One of the famous and quotable moments happens early in the movie, when two hitmen, Vincent and Jules, discuss fast food in Europe, particularly the nomenclature of known staples of American fast-food, the quarter-pounder as a “Royale With Cheese” and “Le Big Mac”.
Shortly thereafter, they brutally execute a guy sitting in a chair.
It’s peak cinema, unironically.
Oh shit, that’s… right! Goldang-it PJ, I thought it was about… eh, something completely different. LOL
Yes-YES-I’m an idiot, alright we’ll get to that later…
What’s surprising is that we did find a big ass sign reading “DEAD BARBARIAN STORAGE” close by.
I don’t know if it’s a five-sestertii shake, but it’s pretty damn good.
… fuck, 5$ was pricey for a milkshake back then…
$5 was more than most Roman peasants could afford, but that was mostly because dollars weren’t around then to spend.
