Comment on "Veni Vidi Veni" would be a great name for a strip club or brothel.
Tuuktuuk@piefed.ee 7 hours agoI'll copypaste this thing I wrote under another comment:
This is a bad translation because the English word "to come" has a double meaning (it also means ejaculation or having an orgasm), while in Latin it doesn't. There's a big risk of a misunderstanding, so "I arrived" is a much better translation IMO.
Why do you think "I came" would be better?

You’re not wrong, “I arrived” is the better translation, “I came” is just (to my knowledge) the more common one people recite in the context of “veni vidi vici” and what this joke was playing off of.
