Did you know that 80% of UCSD students could not find the error above? Repost this with the title "find the error", and when you click "post bulletin", the answer will be really obvious

You're the dumb ass copying and pasting your dumb puzzle on here onto a board which doesn't even HAVE a "post bulletin" button. I bet you don't even know the answer. Reposting the puzzle with the title "find the error" is just going to fill up the board with SPAM. Is that what you're trying to do?

If 80% of UCSD studenst could not find the error,
then it would seem that 20% could.
It is therefore not impossible.

"error" = "RR"?

(Homonyms, sorta.)

That's an interesting take on it.

Another possibility is that when this was originally composed, it contained
"00" rather than "OO", that is, numeral zeroes instead of letter Os.

But I still think it's a trick question based on "It's impossible."

Chill out. I've seen this before, it's just that the O's are typed as 0's (zeros). Nothing more.

Well, that's the stupidest thing I ever heard! Anyway they aren't - these are the Os copied from the original post OO and here are two zeroes 00. They are quite different.

I think we know who the real dumb ass is.

Answer
It's a play on words. The riddle on the bottom asks to find "THE ERROR", the actual words.

THE ERROR is in the first sentence....the second and third word.

Hope this helps...

Personally, I gave up finding things like that amazing when I was about 7 years old, but then I'm not American Very Happy

Anyway, the riddle should be worded 'find "the error"' if the answer is to find those words.

That's good... It could also be that this riddle was never even asked to all of UCSD students, so how could 80% be wrong?

Or how about there is no error to find.
