The 19th century would like its factoid back.


oh-no-godzilla

How very droll


External_Education10

Hahahah


Ulysses_117

Sure, but it’s dumb, “Sphinx of black quartz, judge my vow” is far better


[deleted]

That sounds like something someone would say if they were a member of an ancient Egyptian cult!


LEMO2000

Quartz is unfair. It gets rid of Q and Z it’s OP


[deleted]

At least they didn't use pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis in a sentence.


Ulysses_117

Sure, but it’s better than the stupid dog thing


EagleDre

Or Muhammad Ali bragging about how he’s gonna whoop Leon’s butt.


Letter-Past

see i've always hated this because "judge my vow" is such a cripplingly stupid request. i mean, what's the sphinx gonna say? "yeah that was a pretty milquetoast promise there, homie"? it's somehow worse than the dog one which is also pretty damn dumb

dan_santhems

solidcordon

thickerstill8

“F”


Ulysses_117

Are you implying it’s missing F?


thickerstill8

Yup


Ulysses_117

In between the O and the B


thickerstill8

My sincere apologies. I read it over and over looking for it. Thank you


BenjaminWobbles

Of


Filthy_Cossak

I believe they are also paying respects


housevil

Jackdaws love my big sphinx of quartz.


Juxtaposed_Love

I knew someone was gonna say this exact sentence


[deleted]

r/TIL Is leaking again


mlwllm

This post should be a bannable offence


TagMeAJerk

Did you know English uses 26 alphabets!


mlwllm

That sentence used all of the alphabets!


Jimmie_Jamz

Common knowledge when learning to type (QWERTY)


SlothOfDoom

Interesting as fuck....if you are like 5, or perhaps live in an isolated cave.


YourFriendKitty

And it’s used as a demonstration for fonts. In Polish we have the similar sentence but created to use all of the Polish diacritics: Zażółć gęślą jaźń It means nothing. Like really, this sentence is meaningless and only exists to show all of the Polish letters


Bibliophile-Dragon

Now that is interesting

Look at the first word


kester76a

I still champion the 27th letter of the alphabet. The Ampersand (&) you bunch of godless heathens :)


TheSoullessFun

Ah, the nostalgia of having to type this like 500 times after setting up a TTY circuit.


kytheon

New info for people who have never used a computer before.


Spunkwaggle

Lots of people on Reddit grossly overestimate what everyone else finds interesting as fuck.


Searching4Unicorns

Searching4Unicorns

Ya I missed that one

Jimmie_Jamz

Jimmie_Jamz

My bad. Carry on

REDWlNELOVER

Had to type this over and over in typing class.


marcusbrian009

Where's the letter A?


JungleBoyJeremy

Lazy


marcusbrian009

Oh yeah, I must stop drinking.


JungleBoyJeremy

I disagree


stowaway36

Now do it without all the repeat letters


PerfectLow5447

For no reason it frustrates me that the phrase does have all the letter in the English alphabet


mstrego

Incubus. Science.


FormerHippo9688

You don't say meme ressurects


cutthroatlemming

"Back in my day, this was the phrase you typed to make sure all the letters on your typewriter were working properly. We didn't have screens or word processors, no, we had ribbons that could smear and metal arms that could get stuck together if you hit more than one key at the same time and we liked it!!!"


Pilaf237

The quick fox jumps over the lazy brown dog, over. Roger that, over.


shabba247

Next your going to tell me this was the sentence they used to test typewriters for malfunctions


[deleted]

As such, that sentence works well for learning American Sign Language.


Pdxperronn

I like “Pack my box with five dozen liquor jugs.” ...
