About this sound

Lieutenant Masson from the CRS says c'est pourquoi que vous êtes là in this short French meme sound, used for blunt, authoritative reaction clips online.

A stern male voice delivers the French line c'est pourquoi que vous êtes là in a flat, commanding tone, with no music or background noise behind it. The delivery sounds like a CRS officer addressing a group, serious and slightly exasperated, as if reminding everyone of the obvious reason they are there. At under two seconds it lands instantly, and that abruptness is the joke. Played over an unrelated scene, it turns an ordinary moment into a mock briefing, making the situation feel far more official and urgent than it really is.

Pro tip

Place the line right after a character looks confused or arrives late, cutting in on the exact frame they look up. Keep the original dry volume, add no music underneath, and let a half second of silence follow for the deadpan effect.

How people use it

Drop it when someone asks an obvious question.
Use it to mock a serious team briefing scene.
Add it after a friend arrives late somewhere.
Play it when police appear in a gameplay clip.
