======================

AI you so cool

The "Ides of October" refers to the 15th day of October in the ancient
Roman calendar, a date that marked the middle of the month. The term
"Ides" originally signified the full moon and was a day for religious
observances and settling debts. While most famous for the "Ides of
March," the Ides of October had similar significance.
