Latin phrases you pretend to understand  Who knew? E Pluribus Unum
But the term made its first appearance in Virgil's poem "Moretum" to describe salad dressing. The ingredients, he wrote, would surrender their individual aesthetic when mixed with others to form one unique, homogenous, harmonious, and tasty concoction.

Sui Generis:(SOO-ee JEN-er-is): "Of its own genus," or "Unique and unable to classify"
Frank Zappa, the VW Beetle, cheese in a can, that feeling you get when the Red Sox win the World Series: Sui generis refers to something that's so new, so bizarre, or so rare that it defies categorization.
Granted, labeling something "sui generis" is really just classifying the unclassifiable. But let's not over-think it. Use it at a dinner party to describe Andy Kaufman, and you impress your friends. Use it too often, and you just sound pretentious. http://www.golfhos.com/topic-4215.75#msg56438I just glanced at it today at work. The only one that jumped out at me was Hart to Hart, sitting next to the one dude from Simon and Simon

I don't play golf anymore. Well, maybe I do sort of. I quit keeping score, started drinkning beer and I started playing better.
