\Pau=500\

"All your base are belong to us", (often shortened to "All Your Base",, "AYB, ABTU", or simply 
"AYB") is a broken English phrase that was central to an Internet phenomenon, or meme, in 2000 
to 2000 and 2. The phrase came about as the result of the spread of a gif animation that 
depicted the slogan. The text is taken from the opening cutscene of the 1991, European Sega 
Mega Drive, version of the video game Zero Wing, by Toaplan, which was poorly translated from 
Japanese. It was popularized by the Something Awful message forums.

that read, "All your base, are belong to us. You have no chance to survive, make your time." 
They claimed to be playing an April Fool's joke, but most people who saw the signs were 
unfamiliar with the phrase. Many residents were upset that the signs appeared while the U.S.
