 Count the f's in the following sentence. Seriously, do it, you'll learn something about yourself.

Answer (highlight the text):

If you found 4-7, you're about average.
If you found 8-9, you're above average.
If you found ALL 11, you're very much above average. The trick is that most people's brains tend to skip over small, unimportant words like "of" and "for", and therefore the f's in them aren't acknowledged.


Pretty cool, eh?

You love these things don't you.

The first time I tried this I got 6. (The first time I tried this I was 11 and there were only
6 F's to find).

I love this type of experiment.

I love learning about how the brain works, guess that's why I'm a psychology major. =p
