I got an email today that I am not sure I understand. Translation anyone?

"De gustubus non est disputandum."

there's no accounting for taste :)

Without knowing latin, it sounds like a version of, "About tastes, nothing is written." Something like, "there's no accounting for taste."

Must have been from someone who didn't like the comment you left. :-)

I think we got a consensus....:)!

According to google it means "There is no accounting for taste", or words to that effect at least. Also think there's a typo:
"De gustibus non est disputandum."

Edit: :( I'm clearly too slow.

My expression is "There is no accounting for taste...some people just have none". Not sure what that is in latin.
