: Quick Eye Exam...

This will blow your mind...!

Just do it - don't cheat !!!!!!!!!!!!
Read as you NORMALLY would.

Try this, it's actually quite good. But don't cheat !



Count the number of 'F's in the following text:

FINISHED FILES ARE THE RE- SULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTIF- IC STUDY COMBINED WITH THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS
Managed it?

............ Scroll down only after you have counted them!



OK?

How many?



Three?







Wrong,
there are six - no joke!

Read again!

FINISHED FILES ARE THE RE- SULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTIF- IC STUDY COMBINED WITH THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS.


The reasoning is further down...








The brain cannot process the word "OF".


Incredible or what?




Anyone who counts all six 'F' on the first go is a genius, Three is normal.

Just like Google, the mind doesn't process of, the, or, and, etc!

and or gets processed in boolean - obviously.

Not bad ........ not bad at all.... But I also counted four as well.
I got one similar though. I might post it during the week some time. Until then try this riddle..... We are very little creatures; all of us have diffrent features. One of us in glass is set; one of us you'll find in jet. Another you may see in tin, and a fourth is boxed within. If the fifth you should pursue, it can never fly away from you. What are we?

Why did you pick 3?





Just like the 'count the f's' test, Most people pick 3 because they psychologically won't pick the extremes, 1 or 4, and go with 3 because of right-handedness.

I picked 4 but that may hav been because i had seen the test before,

or maybe im just abnormal like super right-handedness or something.

i did get six first time on the first 'f's test.
Go us freaks!

If I only get 4F's does that mean I can't be drafted?
