Omitted is the capital Q that looks like a 2.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago (16 children)

It's there, almost all the way to the right, about 1/3 from the top.

Yep! Now look for the capital J in the xkcd image, hehe.

There is, actually: far right, about 1/3 the way up, below the obvious Q.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (3 children)

I thought that was a lowercase f. Doesn't look anything like the cursive J we learned as kids.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago

Lowercase f is to the left of it for extra confusion.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

It's the one next to the lowercase f, to the right of it

My mum's name started with J, so I have seen that style of J often

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

I don't think I've ever seen someone write a J with the top extending beyond the root. The inward curvature of the foot I think is because it loops around and connects with the ยซaยป afterwards (that connection is either very faint or not visible in the picture)
