Fortunately, I have never been forced to sit through that pile of steaming cow dung pretending to be a movie.
So I have no idea that David Bowie acted badly throughout, or that the script was written by two pet monkeys on an off day.
Or until now I thought that. Because I had managed to seal off those memories behind a veil of alcoholic fumes.
A veil that you tore - roughly and uncaringly - away from my mind and exposed me to the true horror: I did have to watch that. Twice. Because Herself liked it.

nice try, but you can just admit you liked it. It's OK, we're all friends here. You can come out of the closet now.

It could have been worse. It could have been a Bowie Night and sandwiched* between Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence and Absolute Beginners.

Well that would be wrong even if you were being a classical dick about it, it would be 'viri'.

Just joking with you.  I could have the best joke writer in the business give me a joke and it would fall flat.

Resuscitating my high school Latin:
Treating 'virus' as a Latin noun and assuming that the normal form is the nominative singular form (the form used when it is the subject of a sentence), the 'us' ending means that it has to be either first or fourth declension. If it is first declension, the nominative plural form would be viri; if fourth declension, it would be 'virus' (spelt the same but pronounced differently ('viroose')). 'Vira' would be the plural form of a first declension neuter noun whose singular form was 'virum'.
In fact, the origin of the word virus is (according to my ancient version of the Oxford English Dictionary) a (first declension) Latin adjective, so things get a bit more complicated, since a singular noun derived from it (fairly common Latin practice) might well be 'virum' ('poisonous thing'), with 'vira' as a plural, but since the standard singular form is the masculine 'virus', we are back to 'viri' as a plural.
Having said all this, we are speaking and writing English (or, in some cases, American!), and it is common and perfectly proper to form plurals of singular words taken over from other languages by adding standard English plural endings, so my usage preference is actually 'viruses'.
