Desu is just something non-genuine Japanese say all the time.

Rules said:

No spam outside the spam forum
If you feel the need to joke around or make posts that have no immediate value except for their fun factor, use the spam forum which was created specifically for this purpose. However, even spam has its limits and we do not allow threads that seem to have no use other than to pointlessly make new posts. 'Games' are allowed as long as there is at least some intellectual value to them. Do not create threads where the idea is simply to make posts without any use at all. Spam posts and threads that are found outside of the spam forum, or that are too spammy even for the spam forum, will be deleted, closed or moved. Repeat offence may result in a warning.


I am following the rules :P

But its not too spammy yet anyway...But i think it'll get there :loels:

For all those confused "Desu" is the Romaji form of a Japanese word that basically means "is". Nothing special. Its a chuck norris type internet phenomenon: it doesn't make sense, its wildly popular, and its NOT funny to anyone with an IQ over that of a debilitated humingbird.

Also to clarify, Romaji is just something the Japanese invented to help idiots like us Latin based language speakers (German, English, French, Spanish, etc...) learn their language. It takes standard Japanese symbols (Hiragana, Katakana, and Kanji) and roughly converts them into blocks of "roman letters." Hence "desu". The u at the end is silent when spoken and read alike. Only idiots on the internet pronounce it. Its wrong and, well, wrong! It's silent. It's like pronouncing the "h" in the word sandwhich.
Remember me? You old timers?

You may be right, but you are interpereting it in the wrong context.
It is repeated as a character from the anime "Rozen Maiden" does, she has an obsession with what sounds like "desu" when pronounced in Japanise.

I've seen the future and I have to warn you: In a few months, there'll be some funky experiment with a huge particle accelerator that will create a black hole from which intergalactic space aliens from another dimension will visit earth. They will examine our everyday life and decide if we either deserve to become part of an interplanetary community of everlasting wealth and peace or if we must be eradicated. Eventually, earth will be vaporised and the aliens will bugger off because they found out about TV reality shows, Paris Hilton and THIS thread! Please don't let this happen. Save mankind and end this farce.

I know perfectly well what context intern00bs use it in. And for that an explanation has already been given. Yet after it people are still asking "what the hell is 'desu'?" So I offered the literal explanation.
