so it really doesn't make any sense.

AbeBeta;3117268 said:so then, unlike BB, you know what that means....
bbgun;3117278 said:Er, the Ides of March had become a modern-day synonym for "doom." That's why you hear it every year around March Madness time, when certain teams are expected to fail. AFAIK, you're the only one who takes the "15th" portion literally.

So if you said, "Bewards the Ides of December," more people would think "Uh-oh, something bad is going to happen in December" than would think, "Uh-oh, something bad is going to happen on December 13."
And yes, the Ides of December is the 13th. The Ides is the 15th only in March, May, July and October.

bbgun;3117316 said:I'm very well educated, thank you very much. And Lord knows you're in no position to be delivering tutorials on anything, let alone Shakespeare or Latin. By all means, continue throwing a hissyfit over a simple pun.
AbeBeta;3117317 said:wow, you don't even know what a pun is either.
