Latin
Great God! Scribbler -- your Latin teacher, if still alive, will be coming for you to give you a dozen of the best, and if passed along to the great Bennet's in the sky, will surely haunt you for at least the next 7 years.
You misquoted Cicero. It's, "Quousque tandem, Catalina, patientia nostra abuteris?" patientia nostra is in the ablative, not the accusative as you wrote it. Why? Because abuteris is a compound of utor!!!
