The best seaside city to go on vacation if you want to act like a celebrity. Even if you´re staying in a shack and driving a piece of crap, you´ll think you´re the king of the world and be even more desperate to get as many stickers (of EVERYTHING, banks, supermarkets, stores, services, gas stations, tea etc, etc, etc)to presume that you went to "Punta" and went to the Conrad Hotel (the best 5 stars in Latin America) even if you just went to the hall to see the limos and try to spot someone famous.
If you´re really "chic" then you hate the stickers ruining your SUV window, if you´re poor or normal, you´ll come back with no space in your windows and full of t-shirts and souvenirs on whick you spent a fortune on.
1)"Man, I went to Punta del Este!"
"Yeah, I saw you car, Mr. Bank Boston!"
2)-I heard Paris Hilton was gonna be there, but that´s what they say every year
-Really? omfg then I´m going!

The greatest melodic death metal band ever! Listen to them, and you will not be dissapointed.
Pure is clearly Mors Principium Est's best song ever. It's off their The Unborn album.

caecilius est in metella translates to "caecilius is in metella." ;) ;) ;) it's a meme among the Cambridge Latin community and is easy to put together after reading the first two or so chapters of the book.
Caecilius est in Metella. Quintus est perterritus. --> Caecilius is in Metella. Quintus is terrified.
Latin, "where is the benefit?" A type of logical fallacy in which one claims one didn't do something bad because it was not in one's interests to do so. An example would be, "Why would I steal from the cash register? It's going to hurt the business if I do, and then I might lose my job."
The argument is usually used on behalf of someone else: for example, Ludo Martens (1995) argues that Stalin could not possibly have massacred millions of Russians because he needed them to fight WW2; Fogel & Engermann claimed* that American slavery was not very bad because it was in the best interests of slaveowners to have content slaves.
The argument is a fallacy because it assumes that all relevant motives of the actor are well-established, and lead away from the act. It does not account for motives like personal hatred, shame, fear, spite, ideology, and so on.

* In *Time on the Cross* (1971); the book was conclusively debunked by David & Stampp, *Reckoning with Slavery* (1976).
One frequently encounters *quis est beneficium?* arguments among Holocaust deniers of all stripes. Among such worthies it is claimed that Hitler/Stalin/Enver Pasha could not possibly have wanted to massacre all those millions because it was a nuisance to try.
