If someone pronounced it as Day-os-ex I would also need at least a few seconds to get it because I personally use the latin pronunciation.
"D-E-U-S-E-X. Get your minds out of the gutter." - Anon, six months from this post, in the shower
Anon was clearly not in choir. Any singer would know it's "deh oos", not "day us".
Still sounds like "day o' sex", but from Northern England or something
If a British professor doesn't know his basic Latin, that's even was.
Deus Ex Machina is like one of the most commonly known Latin phrases, along with Veiny Viny Vici
To stay on topic, want to Vici my Veiny Viny?
Do I want to wici your weiny winy?
It's veni, vidi, vici, not veiny viny vici.
Thanks I'm northern and was confused by what distinction this comment is trying to show
it's "deh oos", not "day us".
^^ This guy Latins
in excelsis
👍
DAAAAY-o
Me say day, me say day, me say daaaaay -o
Daylight come and me wan go home
Come mista Taliban tally me bananas
I believe it should be "In excelsis deo, but "dominus deus". Something about Latin endings stuck in my mind from those days too.
You triggered some really awful memories just now. I thought I had them buried, but you just exposed them to light and now I have to deal with them.
just say deus ex machina ffs
day of sex machines?
pervert
fuck you got me
"Why do you think we're here."
Fake: anon is the only one in a programming class that wants to make video games
Gay: me
Deu-Sex: Mycunt divided
I mean... there are other worse titles. OP rolled a nat 1.
Could have said "Meet 'N' Fuck Kingdom"
I'm just gunna put it out there since I came across it on steam, there is in fact a Hitler based sex game.... Why no idea, did I laugh for like an hour after I found it, yes he's I did.
Ah sex with Hitler good game 10/10
You should’ve said Deus formerly known as Twitter
This doesn’t even make sense.
It does if you assume anon doesn't know latin pronunciation.
(And the rest of the class have no idea about that “old” game)
In that case it would more likely be “do (or deuce) sex,” but that’s not the vibe.
They're implied to have pronounced it "DAY-us EX"
