Quick brown fox is the grammatical equivalent of programmer art, just good enough for the purpose but by rule must be devoid of any aesthetic appeal. Sphynx of black rock is what happens when an actual grammatical poet/artist is hired to dress up the UI.

You mean "D&D player" 🤘🏼
@NickEast_IndieWriter @linguistics @humor@fedigroups.social @humor@lemmy.world @aiop But the quick brown fox version is also missing the black metal letters....
@ElyseMGrasso @NickEast_IndieWriter @linguistics @humor@fedigroups.social @humor@lemmy.world @aiop
Which is OK for an English sentence but then we need one with þ, ð and æ.
@petealexharris @ElyseMGrasso @NickEast_IndieWriter @linguistics @humor@fedigroups.social @humor@lemmy.world @aiop
How about a ȝ for good measure?
@AlexanderVI @ElyseMGrasso @NickEast_IndieWriter @linguistics @humor@fedigroups.social @humor@lemmy.world @aiop
Oh yeah, love a yogh. Just don't know how to type one on my phone.
@NickEast_IndieWriter @linguistics @humor@fedigroups.social @humor@lemmy.world @aiop That one is quite cool.
Btw, the German equivalent to that is "Franz jagt im komplett verwahrlosten Taxi quer durch Bayern".
And if you want one with ÄÖÜ and ß in there as well, then it is "Zwölf Boxkämpfer jagen Viktor quer über den großen Sylter Deich".
And why not abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz or qwertzuiopasdfghjklyxcvbnm
No “y” in the second one.
my
I’m an idiot

Do you know what's sillier? Neither sentence contains the entire alphabet. There is no "s" in the first sentence, and no "f" in the second. (And yes - I just scanned both sentences for both.)
First sentence is supposed to be "the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" to contain every letter.
Second sentence actually does contain an F; "Sphinx of black quartz"
@FesteringFerret @NickEast_IndieWriter @linguistics @humor @humor @aiop Of course the second sentence has an 'f'.
Sphinx of quartz.
@FesteringFerret @NickEast_IndieWriter @linguistics @humor@fedigroups.social @humor@lemmy.world @aiop
normally it's "jumps" not jumped, there is your s, and the e and d are also elsewhere.
@FesteringFerret @NickEast_IndieWriter @linguistics @humor@fedigroups.social @humor@lemmy.world @aiop
They forgot 'jumps'
'Cwm, fjord-bank glyphs vext quiz' is neater.

Old form of vexed.
The strange symbols, on the side of the valley and sea inlet, frustrated the curious person.
@PatrickOBeirne @FesteringFerret @NickEast_IndieWriter @linguistics @humor@fedigroups.social @humor@lemmy.world @aiop
Certainly the most poetic entry in the contest 👍
