GREEK. It was a nod and a bit of humor to your nic namesake, since Cato the Elder has such a dislike for anything Greek.

(Hellenic is a synonym for Greek.)

Umm…I know?

I was taking it further. There was Hellenic (pre-Alexander) and then there was Hellenistic (what you got when you mixed Hellenic with all the other stuff they absorbed as an empire). Hellenism was really what I couldn’t bear, and constantly poked fun at.
