Of
To be fair, I also couldn’t find the f, thank you!
The first time I saw this post, there were several people in the comments (me included) overlooking the of at first.
Guilty here. I even looked like an idiot asking about it in tumblr like six months ago.
Don’t feel bad. I missed “of” and “my”.
It’s easy to remember. I can’t forget about the quick brown fox. However, I’ve already forgotten the alternative. Something black? Idk
pack my box with five dozen liquor jugs
It’s missing h and t, so that’ll have to be hot liquor jugs.
Nope, all there: with
I better stick with quick brown fox
Such sloppy sentence engineering. Sus.
Too many liquor jugs? 😁
The sphinx, as a type of chimera, represents a bridge between life and death (or for the ancients, this life and the afterlife). It will judge you and all your vows whether you like it or not.
To Each His Chimera
Beneath a broad grey sky, upon a vast and dusty plain devoid of grass, and where not even a nettle or a thistle was to be seen, I met several men who walked bowed down to the ground.
Each one carried upon his back an enormous Chimera as heavy as a sack of flour or coal, or as the equipment of a Roman foot-soldier.
But the monstrous beast was not a dead weight, rather she enveloped and oppressed the men with her powerful and elastic muscles, and clawed with her two vast talons at the breast of her mount. Her fabulous head reposed upon the brow of the man like one of those horrible casques by which ancient warriors hoped to add to the terrors of the enemy.
I questioned one of the men, asking him why they went so. He replied that he knew nothing, neither he nor the others, but that evidently they went somewhere, since they were urged on by an unconquerable desire to walk.
Very curiously, none of the wayfarers seemed to be irritated by the ferocious beast hanging at his neck and cleaving to his back: one had said that he considered it as a part of himself. These grave and weary faces bore witness to no despair. Beneath the splenetic cupola of the heavens, their feet trudging through the dust of an earth as desolate as the sky, they journeyed onwards with the resigned faces of men condemned to hope for ever. So the train passed me and faded into the atmosphere of the horizon at the place where the planet unveils herself to the curiosity of the human eye.
During several moments I obstinately endeavoured to comprehend this mystery; but irresistible Indifference soon threw herself upon me, nor was I more heavily dejected thereby than they by their crushing Chimeras.
-Baudelaire
So the sphinx of black quartz just goes hard psychopomp view?
First, thank you. Second, that’s awesome. Third, do you need a hug, buddy?
Haha. Vindication for my art history minor!
And sure, hugs are always good! In fact we should all be a lot nicer to one other. After all, none among us is ultimately getting out of this mess alive.
Time for a sentence that really uses all letters. At least all the letters from latin scripts. So give me some Þ and some ß.
Also some č æ ø đ ē ç œ
That’s because this movie scene etched in into people’s memory
no it’s cause it’s used by dafont and google fonts
Windows here always shows “Pa’s wijze lynx bezag vroom het fikse aquaduct” and I still don’t know that one

sphinx of <-
‘The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog’ does not contain the letter S.
It’s jumps.
boxers had zap of gay jock love, quit women
Came here for this one! 👊⚡️👨🏻❤️👨🏻🏋️❤️🚫👯♀️
To answer honestly, it’s because the first sentence only uses common and easy to spell words.
El veloz murciélago hindú comía feliz cardillo y kiwi. La cigüeña tocaba el saxofón detrás del palenque de paja.
I sometimes see it used on some font websites
Doesn’t the first sentence in this post specifically not include “s”? So, not all letters are included?
Wikipedia gives the conventional pangram: “the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog”.
Good catch. Dogs. Or jumps.

if you mean the sphinx one, it has it in the word “of”parent comment was deleted but isn’t federating to all instances.I realized it right after I hit send. Deleted it but I guess some people can still see it
ah yea deletion doesn’t like federating very well I’ve noticed
“The slow black dog bows before the regal fox” will forever be in my head thanks to that one episode of Philip K Dick’s Electric Dreams.
(Yes, it’s missing the Z. That’s part of the point.)
It’s also missing I, J, M, N, P, Q, U, V, and Y.
That’s nearly half the alphabet. As approximate pangrams go, this one failed harder than any I’ve seen before.
Mild spoilers, but in the show, >!it isn’t supposed to be a pangram, but a response to one, sort of like an anti-pangram. f you’re trying to focus on the typical ‘quick brown fox’ pangram, it breaks your concentration. It sounds close, but the more you think about it, the worse it gets and the less you’re able to focus on the real one.!<
But my point is that it still confuses me and pops up in my head when I’m trying to think about the real one.
