My dad sent Bro and me the following e-mail:<\/p>\n
Count the “F’s” in the following text:
\nFINISHED FILES ARE THE RESULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTIFIC STUDY COMBINED WITH THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS.<\/i><\/p>\n
Managed it ? Okay, after you have counted them, then
\n
\nDo you think there are 3?<\/p>\n
Wrong, there are 6 !!–no joke.<\/p>\n
Read it again.<\/p>\n
The brain cannot process “OF”.<\/p>\n
Incredible or what ? Go back and look again!!<\/p>\n
Anyone who counts all 6 “F’s” on the first go is a genius. Three is normal, four is quite rare.<\/i><\/p>\n
Now, I had received this e-mail in the past, and it still amazes me how I can only see three when I read and count them for the first time. Which is what happened again, until I became aware the word OF was the magic word, I only was counting three F’s. (I have no idea if it works the same way when posted on a website.)<\/p>\n
But confirming that I’m no genius and only normal isn’t the reason for this post …<\/p>\n
I just wanted to share my short reply e-mail to Dad:<\/p>\n
Dad, I don’t F’n get it !<\/i><\/p>\n
(There’s a slim chance that I stole that line from one of The UnUsual Suspects when that e-mail was passing around us, I don’t recall it being mentioned, but I really can’t believe I’d think of it before Singer or Hottie, so if I stole it from you of you two, I’m sorry. On the other hand, there’s no way I would have stolen it from Miss Daisy, whose response would have most likely been “Huh?<\/i>” or Sister, who would have definitely said “I don’t fucking get it.<\/i>” \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
