It's not a "rip-off", it's a paraphrase.

To paraphrase DesCartes, "Fututio,ergo sum.

I would like to hear from any providers who apprecites this. Send me a PM.

The meaning of the sentence
"Fututio, ergo sum" is
"I fuck, therefore I am!"

It is a rip off of the famous Descartes quote:

"Cogito ergo sum" meaning
I think, therefore I am.

All in Latin, of course!

Actually, I prefer:

Ego sum ergo futuo

if I remember what my Latin teacher taught me many, many years ago.

I learned my Latin phrases from "Asterix" cartoons... :-)
(of course the Romans in 50 B.C. were happily quoting Descartes)
Not sure whether I got the declination right.

Actually, the proper order would be:

Vidi, futui, Veni

In other words: I saw, I fucked, I came :-)

I'd like to revise that slightly.
"Vedi, futui, veni!
{I saw, I fucked, I came.)
I probably have my tenses wrong.  It's many years since my high school latin.

All I remember from my 9th grade Latin is this sage advice -- "semper ubi sub ubi."  Except, of course, when you're with someone as awesome as Grace.

This translates to "Always where under where."
I'd prefer "Smper ubi mundus sub ubi"--- Always wear clean under wear.
