Imma upvote you for the quote, but YSK it’s “risible” which is an additional layer of humour if you’re familiar with Latin (which was what the Romans spoke), because “risible” is an archaic English word from around the 1600s meaning “to provoke laughter”, which is itself based on the Latin word “ris”, which means “laugh”. “Ridere” means “to laugh” and “ridiculus” means “laughable”.
Do you find something wiseable about the name
Biggusssss
Dickussssss???

Haha latin nerd. Thanks though.
Why does ‘getting a rise out of sb’ mean to make them angry then?
I don’t think that comes from Latin, it probably refers to a fish rising to take bait on the water.
He has a wife you know…
