Norma Desmond is a character from the 1950 classic noir film Sunset Boulevard directed by Billy Wilder.
Some quotes:
"No one leaves a star. That's what makes one a star."
"We didn't need dialogue. We had faces!"
"There once was a time in this business when I had the eyes of the whole world! But that wasn't good enough for them, oh no! They had to have the ears of the whole world too. So they opened their big mouths and out came talk. Talk! TALK!"
"The stars are ageless, aren't they?"

His name personifies the word "terror" and his name in greek means "dread". He sweeps his mighty hand across the lands and formats all in which oppose him. He seeks one thing in the galaxy which is his Mac. He also has the most precise hearing capabilities known to all sentient life in the universe. Deimos is a dark body that appears to be composed of C-type surface materials, similar to that of asteroids found in the outer asteroid belt. He crated the moon Deimos from his bare hands so that he can follow through with his most important rule, "Nothing is FREE!". He forged his secondary weapon from steel taken from an alternate galaxy which he repurposed in what is known as a TASCAM since he is still in search for his beloved iMac.
Deimos: Did you remember to format your Tascam?
Student: Nah I forgot to do it.
Deimos: *Wields the strength of the planets in his hand and vaporises said student*
Deimos: "Nothing is free"
*Class Dismissed*

Get the Desmond mug.A lower second class, or 2:2 degree.
Inspired by South African Desmond Tutu.
Claims about the term 'tutu' are inherently redundant (2:2 <-- duh).
Many claim to have invented the term, the truth is multiple people invented it at different times, in different places and continue to do so believing they are the first.
In the UK, the 'Desmond' is part of a logical sequence using well-known figures:
First - Geoff (Geoff Hurst, footballer)
2:1 - Billy (Billy Gunn, wrestler)
2:2 - Desmond (Desmond Tutu, bishop)
Third - Thora (Thora Hird, actress)
You get nothing for a fail.
