Count the "F's" in the following text

Didn't find any F's but found 6 instances of the letter F.

I wonder . . . if you post this over at DU and have them do it, will they request a recount?

I got six the first time because my High School English teacher taught us to always proof-read backwards.

Trick is to always proof backwards. When you read forwards the brain sees what it WANTs to see.

Anyone who counts all 6 "F's" on the first go is a genius.

Thank you.

Hope you don't mind if I add another "test" to your post.

Test for Dementia -

Below are four (4) questions. You have to answer them instantly. You can't take your time, answer all of them immediately. OK?

Let's find out just how clever you really are.

Ready? GO!!! (scroll down)

First Question:

You are participating in a race. You overtake the second person. What position are you in?

Answer: If you answered that you are first, then you are absolutely wrong! If you overtake the second person and you take his place, you are second!

Try not to screw up in the next question. To answer the second question, don't take as much time as you took for the first question.

Second Question:

If you overtake the last person, then you are...?

Answer: If you answered that you are second to last, then you are wrong again. Tell me, how can you overtake the LAST Person?

You're not very good at this! Are you?

Third Question:

Very tricky math! Note: This must be done in your head only.

Do NOT use paper and pencil or a calculator. Try it.

Take 1000 and add 40 to it. Now add another 1000. Now add 30. Add another 1000. Now add 20. Now add another 1000 Now add 10. What is the total?

Scroll down for answer.

Did you get 5000?

The correct answer is actually 4100.

Don't believe it? Check with your calculator! Today is definitely not your day. Maybe you will get the last question right?

Fourth Question:

Mary's father has five daughters: 1. Nana, 2. Nene, 3. Nini, 4. Nono.

What is the name of the fifth daughter?

Answer: Nunu?

NO! Of course not.

Her name is Mary. Read the question again.

KEEP THIS GOING TO FRUSTRATE THE SMART PEOPLE IN YOUR LIFE!

I didn't write anything. I saw the double THE and my brain blew a gasket, and now I'm permanently impaired. Thanks a lot!

I got 4 the first time because the last "of" was the last word of the first line due to my screen settings.

Heh heh.. Good catch. I thought about that since the instructions has the "F's" enclosed in quotes. You are the most technically correct!

Gottem all the first time. I'm an editor, not necessarily a genius. Well, perhaps.
