{{Abb:Index}}

{{Abb:Header|X}} X is a letter that, when placed in a word, title, or proper nown, makes the subject instantly cool. Examples are: Sonic X, Megaman X, X-men, Triple X, etc.

Other meanings of X

  • X is a placeholder variable in maths. Many maths tests tell you to "find x", even though the x is right there on the paper!
    • By extension, X may also be used to denote any unknown, not just the ones on your maths test.
  • If you don't want to leave your actual signature on a legal contract or otherwise binding document, sign with the letter X. This is, oddly enough, accepted as a signature.
  • X is used often with the letter O in two ways:
    • In a good, hearty game of tic-tac-toe. This is the usage of X and O preferred by the {{Abb:Link|Knights who say Meh}}
    • X and O can also be used to represent {{Abb:Link|hug}}s and {{Abb:Link|kiss}}es. It is unknown what letter stands for what here, but the Knights do not care because this usage is forbidden under the {{Abb:Link|Golden Rule}}, and is also, by extension, {{Abb:Link|Crimethink}}.
  • X, when applied to movies, means "this movie has lots of romance and explicit, nude sex and stuff". This is roughly synonymous with the "NC-17" rating, which simply means you must be 18 (originally 17) or older to watch said movie. This is also forbidden under the {{Abb:Link|Golden Rule}}.
  • X is an abbreviation for:
    • Christ, as in Xmas (Christmas), Xianity (Christianity), etc.
    • Cross, as in Xing (crossing)
    • Trans-, as in Xmit (transmit)
  • {{Abb:Link|Pirates}} used the letter to "mark the spot", i.e. identify where loot is buried.
