Thank you plum after watching this I read up on the wikipedia article on the album and sure enough:

The album's cover includes the supposed-Latin motto, "Illegitimis non carborundum", which is supposed to mean "one must not be ground down by the bastards"

I can sleep easier tonight knowing this all simmers down to a boomer ass reference. I can't sleep yet though my hourly cravings are acting up again and I need to grind down some more 'beef'. I'll grind them down. I'll grind ALL OF THEM DOWN simmer them with taco seasoning.
