Sphynx (SPHYNX) of black quartz judge my vow
Am I blind or is there no letter i?
There is a "y" in "my" so maybe "Sphinx" would complete the sentence?
The fuck happened with that one. Its literally the same word, this isnt an aluminum vs aliminium situation where the namer was a fuck up and called it both so people flipped a coin. Fucking English spelling is ratfucked.
No one has ever proposed "aliminium" for the name of the element.
"Alumium" was the original, "Aluminum" and "Aluminium" were battled in American and British journals.
British chemist Humphrey Davy named it alumium at first but immediately changed it aluminum. A journalist reporting on his discovery changed it to aluminium.
Fair enough, I guess I was just miss remembering. I thought he called it both multiple times and the US and Britain just said fuck it and went with one or the other.
The -ium ending is the standard naming convention for elements, e.g., plutonium, natrium, kalium.
Platinum says hello.
That's an after the fact convention though. I dont see anyone proposing we rename iron to ferium, silver to argentium, or lead to plumbumium.
yeah it's Sphinx

I spelt 'sphynx' (sphinx) wrong, it's saved that way in my phone for some reason and I wasn't paying attention.
Edit: Ah, yep just saw that comment with the cats. It's because of cats.
Ha. I have this saved in my phone (with the "Sphinx" spelling), too. I guess waiting for this.moment?
Pretty sure it's supposed to be in Sphinx.
You most definitely do your own research.
Edit: This person was very right I was just joking jeez.

Easily the best panagram.
Another Venture Bros. fan?
I even catch myself doing it out loud, on the rare occasion the word comes up.
Fucking brilliant show. Still need to watch the film but part of me feels like doing so is admitting it's over, so I'm going to keep putting it off for a bit I think.
I understand that completely. I keep telling myself I'm going to rewatch the whole series, but I can't quite bring myself to watch that final movie. Once I do, that's it; there's no more new VB.
It’s a nice close to the whole thing. Plus you can then rewatch the whole thing again looking for how it subtly ties everything together.
No f but a ph. You need five sphinxesFound it.
