The Architect in the Matrix does say Vis-a-vis, as in "vis-a-vis, love".
And DeyBlade is right on the French, but even if he were wrong I probably wouldn't realize it as my French sucks, especially at 2:30 AM.

Aww! Du bist zu nett!

My favorite Latin expression is "sic", even though it can only be used to make other people seem un-smart, thus making you seem like a jerk for using it. "sic" is used when you quote someone, and it means "This is not a mistake I made while quoting; I am quoting a mistake the original speaker made". For example:
[qq=Meat Puppet]I always though it meant egzample [sic].[/qq]
I use it there to indicate the use of a word that doesn't exist. See, it makes me seem like a huge jerk, especially if I was engaged in a debate with someone; using it repeatedly would basically be a very subtle attack on the other person's intelligence / grammar skills.
c'est la vie: Such is life.
I've always wondered though. What does (sic) stand for, precisely?
I believe it's similar to "thus"... You mean the "sic" used to denote an error in a quote, right?
Yeah, literally, it is "thus" or "so."
