This may be old to some, but I've just seen it and thought it quite interesting.
How many 'F' are in the following text?
Please count them:
FINISHED FILES ARE THE RE-
SULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTIF-
IC STUDY COMBINED WITH THE
EXPERIENCE OF YEARS
Ready?
Go on with reading (click the extended entry) NOT UNTIL you have counted!
O.k.?
And how many?
Incorrect! There are 6! No joke!
Back to the top and read again!
The solution you’ll find farther down......
The brain can not handle the word 'OF'.
Who counts all 6 'F' at once is a genius. To count 3 is normal.
Did you count all 6 at once?
(Works for some people, not for others.)

1) You must have Javascript enabled in your browser in order to comment (blame the spammers). If you don't know what that is, you're probably fine.
2) HTML is on, so basic html should work. Raw links will be made auto-clickable, too, so even if you don't know html you can just paste in the link and it should work fine. Keep the "http://" in it.
3) Comments are generally unmoderated, which means I don't necessarily agree with the tone and tenor of everything posted. In fact, sometimes people post things they don't really mean just to make other people look bad. The internet is an anonymous place for the most part. That said...
4) I welcome you to post here. I'd love to have your input, agree, disagree or just offer a different data point, really. If I didn't want any participation, I'd turn off comments. Be aware, however, that this blog and the comments section exist for my entertainment. Therefore, I reserve ALL RIGHTS here, including the right to remove any or all comments on nothing more than a whim. Please don't even bother complaining. I'm the one providing the space and the free news and thought buffet. I don't owe anyone anything.
Anyone who posts here will be treated as my guest. That means I'm happy to be polite as a default, but if anyone is rude to the host they'll be unceremoniously shown the door.
It may pay to recall a famous line from the Tom Selleck magnum opus, Mr. Baseball: "Jack-san, you want Yoji's advice about the babes, you come to Yoji with respect."
5) Enjoy your stay!

Counted 6 but I've seen one like that before.
Oh, you're no fun at all!! :P
I counted 6, too. But then, my wife says that I don't think like normal people.
A'right, from now on everyone has to drink a six-pack before taking the damn test!
FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFabulous! I counted all 6 but I've seen it before and I did not drink a 6 pack but did have a nice pint with dinner.
So fneener

excellent
this is a lame test comment that you can delete..
I counted four at first, but figured something was up (cuz you are so tricky) so I looked carefully and then I realized that I missed the of's.
