Annotation for screen readers:

A galaxy-brain meme with four sections:

  • The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog
  • Sphinx of black quartz, judge my vow
  • Pack my box with five dozen liquor jugs
  • Boxers had zap of gay jock love, quit women

I love pangrams! I even have a list of all my favorite ones:

  • Fix problem quickly with galvanized jets
  • Amazingly few discotheques provide jukeboxes
  • My girl wove six dozen plaid jackets before she quit
  • who packed five dozen old quart jugs in my box
  • Jim quickly realized the beautiful gowns are expensive
  • The wizard quickly jinxed the gnomes before they vaporized
  • the quick onyx goblin jumps over the lazy dwarf
  • a wizards job is to vex chimps quickly in fog
  • Heavy boxes perform waltzes and jigs
  • A very big box sailed up then whizzed quickly from Japan
  • Jack quietly moved up front and seized the big ball of wax
  • The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog
  • A quick movement of the enemy will jeopardize six gunboats
  • Pack my box with five dozen liquor jugs
  • Grumpy wizards make a toxic brew for the jovial queen

Fix problem quickly with galvanized jets

Even with all the D&D examples, only this approaches the dork-ass energy of "sphinx of black quartz, judge my vow." These are the ones that deserve typing into a 1980s computer to check out the hardcoded font.

Designers use these sometimes when designing, modifying, or setting type. I always use the sphinx one bc it’s metal.

I like the last one as: Boxer had zap of gay jock love, quits women
