Old skool poll: dykWHATti?

UPDATE WITH ANSWER IN OP BELOW

The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog. Don't give it away if you know. I'm wondering if the kids these days know what this is.

Brought to you by a Buzzfeed headline I read and wondered if people understand.

UPDATE/ANSWER: I learned it in typing class (precursor to keyboarding class, youngsters!). It's a sentence that uses all the letters of the alphabet. Pangram I think.

Uh.. yes.

[eb777888]

yes

[LeggsBenedict]

no. is it a song?
























just kidding.

[snickers]

I think I do

[LauraMoser]

I feel like I know what it is, but can't remember, lol. I remember learning the sentence, but don't remember what it is about, if that makes any sense.

[katb]

Yes

[birdistheword]

Yes.

[bcv513]

Yup

[CheshireGrin]

Yes. But I wouldn't count myself as a "kid" either.

[BieberMyBalls]

Yes

[Deleted]

I believe it's "dogs."

[missmaddie]

Indeed

[isabel]

No.

I thought it was dog, but instead of jumped its jumps.

[LauraMoser]

Ok, I remember now!

That is how I learned it, too.

[bania]

I think so. I'm pretty sure.

[TrickyBob]

Also, like others have said, it is "jumps". Due to the significance of it, it wouldn't work with "jumped"

[balletofangels]

Yes! Most worthwhile class I ever took.

Yes, I learned it in 3rd grade or 4th grade.

Well, true. I know I learned it with jumps. Either way, it needs an S somewhere. 

[messykitchen]

Yes. But I am 38! Not a kid anymore. Sniff.

[tripleshot]

Yes, I'm not young (32).
