What trait makes these letters different than any others in the English alphabet?
They have dual sounds?
They taste great and are more filling?
They’re floor wax and dessert topping!
…No, not quite.
Well?!
(not such a “Quick Riddle” afterall, huh?)
They’re the only letters that can spell Quigwixuc.
FTR, a Quigwixuc is a tall hairy neaderthal like creature with three thumbs and four asses. It should not be mistaken for its relative, the Kwijibo.
Um … Letters on your license plate?
Middle initials of every President?
Only letters your three year old niece can’t pronounce?

No, not really.
Define “phonetically”.

J – dzhay
K – cay
Y – wie

How do you pronounce “???”?
Bastards. I said it was a quick riddle; I never said it was well-thought out.
huffs away grumbling about his forgotten Trivia Challenge thread
So, are you saying you didn’t have an answer?? What is the answer you were looking for?
I was saying that scratch and Dinsdale showed me that my answer wasn’t nearly comprehensive. I’ll flush with shame forevermore, and can never speak to the two of them again.
