In Shakespeare’s famous Julius Caesar, he is attacked and killed by a group of senators, including his friend Brutus (Brute). Among his last words were the famous “Et tu, Brute?”, which translates to “And you, Brutus?”
If you were being attacked and noticed that even your good friend was participating, how would you acknowledge that? What would you say to that friend?

I wouldn’t say anything. I won’t use my last words condemning someone.
I would have said,”
“OMG! WTF? LOL!?!?! BFF?”
Hey Brutus baby!?? I loan you my pool boy and this is the thanks I get??
I regret nothing and simultaneously everything.
Oh yeah? Well I fucked your mom.

@phillis translate please? thank you <hugs>
I would do as I have done when I found out (what I believed to be) my very best friends were joking about me behind my back and being really spiteful and hurtful. I didn’t say anything and just went away and cried a lot. Lesson learned though I suppose.
hugs honeys xx

“I’m un-fluthering you!”...........................and facebook
Tuus matres magnae capute me dedit.
@mrentropy Does that mean, “Your mother is a whore?” ;-)
Dude, you used to be an awesome friend.
They won’t name a salad after you!
Let’s do lunch next week.
@Dr_Dredd I think it means your mother is better in the sack than you are? (Brutus, not you)
@Dr_Dredd If I remember slacking off in high school Latin properly, it should mean something along the lines of, “Your mother gives me great head.”
“You stabbed me! You fucking stabbed me! What the fuck man? I held back your curly fucking locks after you got all shitty drunk at the orgy! Asshole! I hope you impale yourself on your own fucking blade, I really do!”
I’ve just been stabbed by my best friend. Give me a break. I’m kinda having a rough day.
Well, this certainly gives a new meaning to the term, “Stabbed in the back”!
Woulda been all, “This sucks!”
@phillis LOL thats brilliant!! thank you <hugs>
Infamy they’ve all got it infamy.
Other options:
1. Hey! You nearly hit Little Caesar!
2. Ow! My Casaerian section!
I tried an online translator for this so bear with me:
“Is universitas mereo mereor vos.”
Everywhere you turn, I’ll be there, waiting for you my friend.
I would look at him in shock and say, “I can not believe that just fucking happened!”
“Seriously? Couldn’t we have talked this out over tea and servant boys?”
And now a murderer is all you are!
haha @Captain_Fantasy
I wouldn’y say anything. I’d grab that knife and stab him in his Little Caesar!
Can you really trust these new friends? Loyalty is earnt through giving loyalty.
This is going to figure prominently in your next evaluation. Just see if you get a raise you pratt!
“Brute… I am your father!”
It would freak him out so much, he’d be scarred for life :)
@Arp LMAO best answer ever. :D
“Is that all you’ve got? Come on!”

LOL @gailcalled “Tu too?” That’s just too too… (and you already knew).
@CyanoticWasp: Be grateful that I left out the ballerina jokes, or Little Richard’s “Tutti Frutti.” (A whop bop-a-lu a whop bam boo). Note what “boo” rhymes with.
