Did you... Did you do the thing there? There's no e

(☞ﾟヮﾟ)☞

I think, you usually post, if you got a thing to say. And thus you want to say that thing, not look for formulations all day long...

Ah, classic rebuttal and sans a certain character! Fantastic!

Several. Later Georges Perec also did

Which is a book about a world in which the letter "E" has disappeared and only one guy notices it. He tries to prove it, but of course all works of literature have been "rewritten" by reality to no longer include E. For example, Edgar Allen Poe's The Raven, is now A Blackbird - which the author includes in full, keeping the original meter and plot.

I heard about this when I was in my twenties, forgot the details, and purchased The Great Gatsby instead.

I thought I was missing something for the longest time. I guess I was.

Ahh that's the one. For some reason I thought it was from the 1880s...

Oi mum, where's Grond?

And it was. It wasn't noticed much when it first came out, but some decades later it blew up when people realised how cool it was.

Yeah, but it isn't impressive avoiding a letter if you can use any word you want, and it doesnt matter what it means. "Without employing the second most frequent letter of English." would make sense or "the vowel which is commonly listed first" or some sort of thing. I suspect they just didn't know what lexicon meant and thought it sounded smart.
