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-
EXPERIENCE OF YEARS
Managed it?
Scroll down only after you have counted them!
Ok?
Three?
Nope WRONG!
Theres 6. No joke, read it again,
FINISHED FILES ARE THE RE-
SULT OF YEARS? OF SCIENTIF-
EXPERIENCE OF YEARS
The brain can't process the word "of".
Awesome stuff. Anyone that gets a 6 is supposedly a genius.

I counted 6 but I did fly over the "of"s at first. I love how these work but I never trust the explinations...

your mind processes 'of' the way its pronounced ("ov"), so the "EFF" sound you're looking for does not register eng101
