“Anyone who counts all 6 ‘F’s on the first go is a genius.”
I’m a genius!
Really like your stuff, btw.
Giggles help with the gruesomes;)
Me too.
Au contraire...rather, the accomplished and prolific reader has refined their brain to the point that non-essential words (such as "of") are automatically filled in as the reader processes the sentences.
That, thereby, allows the reader to absorb and process much more relevant words and becomes even smarter, while the dummy that sees every "f" becomes mired in mediocrity.
(Sounds legit to me.)
I’m a genius too, then, or the creator of the test is a presumptuous nitwit.
I got all 6, but I am a life long bookkeeper & used to details.
I had no trouble finding 6 the first go-round & I’m 81. Guess Alzheimers is a ways off.
The trick to editing text is to start at the end and “read” backwards. This keeps you from anticipating the next letter or word. As a technical illustrator I have picked up a few tricks from technical writers and editors.
