in Rem sitting at a table ordering a pizza at an Italian restaurant with the shortest name also found in a back street in Rotterdam, whilst wondering where the hell the fetish club is.
in situ sitting in a Volkswagen Situ, an Albanian version of a family hatchback which is parked in a Rotterdam city street waiting for a jump start to get you to a Rotterdam fetish club.
ipso facto trying to start threads when you're struggling for facts and ideas, a bit like me it seems

post something you do to contribute to a thread
Prima Facie a sparkling white Italian wine which helps make the reading of these threads more enjoyable
Pro Forma a group of pro-dommes
Pro Rata what a pro-domme charges
Pro Tempore the act of pissing off a pro-domme

quasi feelings of dizziness and nausea after a scene

ratio decidendi the number of posters on any thread who agree with the OP
res judicata a poster who is being judgmental towards the OP
res ipsa loquitur a poster who tries to confuse the issue by using long words and abstract concepts

sub judice being judgmental about a submissive
subpoena ad testiticum a rare form of CBT practised mainly in Sicily

additions and comments welcome..

ETA My apologies, I've made a mistake.. it's actually doli incapax duces tecum and not erm.. rectum .. I think I need glasses..

I love Dumbledore, especially since he turned out to be gay.

Wouldn't it be more fun to get someone else to do it?

Stella, if I haven't told you lately how much I adore you, I apologize. Chortling to myself.

Superb stuff, Stella! Here's a few of mine.

beatae memoriae - A thrashing that has the desired effect.
corruptus in extremis - Motto of the good folk at CollarMe.com.
alter ego - Punish your cheeky sub by making them tend the begonias in their underwear.
aqua regia - A Mistress's piss.
lapsus linguae - Male sub failing one of his prime duties.
modus vivendi - WIITWD
bona vacantia - "Where'd you put them blue pills, Hon?"
