Latin: Asinus asinum fricat
English: The ass rubs the ass
Purport: People who are conceited and pretentious often flatter people who are equally conceited and pretentious, if not worst, with qualities that they do not possess. It’s the age-old, hateful tactic of sucking up to people in order to get ahead, or to gather enough number of support from those who matter (on account of either wealth or fame, or even political muscle) in order to seem right.
Remember: If you rub an asshole long enough, your finger will begin to smell bad! If you kiss and lick it, then you’re strange.
Lesson: Maintain your integrity and dignity. Work hard and get ahead on your own merit and strengths. Leave the asses alone!
