Reminds me of that one time Cicero had a dispute with a political rival, who kept asking him “who’s your father?” because Cicero was not of noble birth. Cicero simply answered “In your case, your mother has made it difficult to answer such a question”.

absolutely barbaric LOL
I remember that incident! Also a great example!
While a great comeback, it’s insane how far Cicero went to try to ingratiate himself with conservatives who fucking hated him for being a novus homo.
