A totally pretentious way of saying that a fact will follow or has preceded a statement. Typically used so a writer can sound more intelligent than they actually are.
Thus, Luke Skywalker defeated his father in a lightsaber duel and Anakin Skywalker threw the Emperor down the reactor shaft of the Death Star, thus ending the tyranny of the Empire, thus setting the stage for the New Republic.

The most beautiful and caring person in the world. She’s like a tulip in a field of dandelions: the seasons change and the winds shake but she still remains the same in all her beauty. You can’t help but stop to admire her. Her laugh is contagious, her singing is angelic, her patience is comforting, her love is warming. A goddess among men and a bright light among stars. She is a once in a lifetime woman, and the only perfect being.

The most awesome person in the world. Known for her super cool ninja skills, and her ability to fly. She's a pimp and a gangsterr but hellaa short. Oh, and if it is one thing you must not do..do not feed her spam. She will instantly have a fatal nosebleed, and faint. Oh, one last thing..she's fat and needs to lose weight.

If there was some crazy, life-sim videogame that included every aspect of life like eating, talking, and even breathing through some crazy usb device; and included "character development;" using the word "thus" would automatically raise the "intelligence" or "wit" etc. of your character 5%.
I sounded like an idiot rambling, but watch as I demonstrate the "intelligenty" effect of "thus."
"You say you did not activate the "stand-by" mode of the laptop. But 90% of the people in this room saw you, in full view of the laptop, run towards it, trip, and fully close the device in question, THUS activating "stand-by" mode THUS ending all running programs THUS PREVENTING the owner of said laptop from receiving any "instant messages" after 4:45 p.m. Saturday."
Same thing witout "thus" used:
wut do u meen u didnt do it, i saw u n so did evrybuddy els
