* Zukariticism is Zuka's way of telling you what you did wrong. You should feel bad for having failed Zuka.

That doesn't work. In the phrase "Et tu, Brute", you get Brute from Brutus because it's vocative, I.e. Brutus is the one being addressed. The vocative of Zuka isn't Zukae. Zukae would be dative or genitive singular, or nominative/vocative plural. So "Et tu, Zukae" could translate to the nonsensical "You too, of Zuka", "You too, to Zuka", or "You to, Zukas". Note that while the last sentence seems gramatically correct in English, Latin's use of different pronouns in second person for singular and plural makes it so that it's not the case.

The correct sentence would simply be "Et tu, Zuka"

Shame on me for not remember the High School Latin I took over 10 years ago.

Feel free to contribute more than pithy corrections Sunderland. I am sure Zuka wouldn't mind one more in his fan club.

Every single form of Zuka in this post is correct. You cannot be wrong whence you have invoked to almighty Zukaness! So you're right. Also yes.

Sun Tzu wrote a sequel to his famous book "The Art of War" called "The Art of Zuka."
The "Kama Sutra" was based of "The Art of Zuka" however it left out parts the author deemed "not physically possible."
There is a maneuver called "The Ultimate Zuka," if performed correctly the participants will experience "bliss normally reserved for the gods," if performed incorrectly neither participant will be able to walk for a month.
Hugh Hefner, John F. Kennedy, and Benjamin Franklin all own a copy of the "The Art of Zuka."
To make conforming to the One Child policy easier, China has banned the "The Art of Zuka" within its borders.
Conservative groups have tried to ban "The Art of Zuka" in the US, unfortunately any trial where part of the book is read out loud quickly turns into an orgy.
Most adult book stores refuse to stock "The Art of Zuka" fearing that their customers would loose interest in their regular stock.

Like Santa Clause, Zuka knows who has been naughty or nice. However he only visits the naughty ones.
Zuka has stared into the abyss, the abyss flinched.
Zuka was one of Willy Wonka's golden ticket recipients. He was expelled from the factory after what he did to that Oompa Loompa.
