It been said that with the proper punctuation and a small bit of pronunciation license the first 11 letters of the alphabet can be spoken as a sentence.
Other people have mentioned Pigita above, but while who knows what is going on in Pig’s looney mind, why would Goat (the Only Sane Man) have completely forgotten her, when Pig & Pigita have indeed broken up several times over the course of the strip? Does this mean that she has officially been retroactively deleted from the continuity of the strip?

How would the punchline work in Greek? X is called as chi whereas the Latin X is the Greek Ξ/xi.

Dear Algebra,
Stop asking us to find your X. She’s not coming back.
We don’t know Y, either.
