Working on a typography project and discovered a new
pangram
. “Pack my box with five dozen liquor jugs.” I quite prefer this to the more common “The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.” Though I did one of those, too.
There are a few others I’ll follow up with just to get a feel for how some of these forms interact with each other.

Red Hot Chili Peppers were my background music while I was working on this, so I thought I’d share.

Nice. I definitely rocked some Chili Peppers when working on my BFA as well!

I think you should pack it with Gin liquor jars. :)

I’m thinking maybe a dozen gin, a dozen whiskey, a dozen vodka, a dozen tequila, and a dozen bourbon. That should be sufficient.

I was suggesting adding a G — but now you’re making me thirsty!
Luckily it’s 5 o’clock somewhere...

Dang it. I was halfway through drawing “jugs” when I stopped myself because I somehow thought it was supposed to be “jars” and erased what I already had.
It’s 5 o’clock here, so... you know.

I don’t know what you’re talking about... there’s a “g” in there.

Also, in my mind, jugs are larger than jars so it’s even more better!!!

I also dislike the jumping fox one. More so that the dog should be brown, not the fox.

That’s a nice font, but you messed up the W in the first sentence. You made both long strokes fat instead of the only the left long stroke and the back slanted short stroke.

The “a”s are also different. Like I said, I’m experimenting.

Those are even better jugs than I was thinking of. Tonic optional.
