Rev:elderly:

[andr.in]

I meant F letters... but where I got it there was F words... I dunno...
But the trick is the english-speakers should not notice the OF and find only 3...that's exactly what ahppened to me but I'm not an english-speaker :)

[vts31]

i win! i got this from the site

"Our brains are trained to overlook the word OF.

If you saw all 6 Fs right away, you're a genius.

Most people see only 3 Fs. Some people see 4"

im a genius it seems.

[lostinbeta]

I saw 6 right away as well.

Geniuses we are :beam:

[h88]

[Andy]

[Andy]

Oh no! I have always been seen as intellectually superior among the beings on this planet and now a simple illusion has proven me to be but average? :P

[andr.in]

455-455... strange.. :)
Now I have 456 :P

[Andy]

wow, h88's post are just shooting up, his post per day has risen from 14 - 24 in one week, In a couple of months I won't be supprized if his up there with lost in post count

[kirupa]

ARGH - I counted 5 the first time. 6 the second time after reading the posts lol. I never even considered the f in the second of lol. Sigh.....walks down the bitter road of sub-par mediocrity with everyone else who didn't get the right number of letters lol j/k!

Cheers!
Kirupa :P

[andr.in]

Sigh.....walks down the bitter road of sub-par mediocrity with everyone else who didn't get the right number of letters like me... lol

[Raydred]

There are only 2 F words.

I took F words are "Words that Begin with F"

So there is only 2, "FINISHED FILES"...


You should have said,
How many words are there that contain the letter F.

That is more precisive. And I AM correct =).

2! =)



and talking about Of, personally, i think of should be spelled, "ov" cause its phonetic. lol I do that alot lol

[lostinbeta]

Actual ov implies a long "o" sound, so I don't think that is right either.

[lostinbeta]

Hmm, I agree with Ray as well.... but this thread is completely contradictory.... The title of it is....

"Count the F letters!"

Where the sentence inside says "Count the F words"

Hmmmmmm.

[Raydred]

So i guess the question would be now, Those who said "6", are they really a genius? or are they normal. =)

unless they were thinking in higher functions, such as 6 is divisible by 2... hmm lol

[andr.in]

Who the hell started this thread anyways, we need to kick some butt.
:P lol :P lol :P

[mdipi]

i got 5...
now that i read the posts, i see six, i never saw the third of.

[bit-101]

where i come from, the "F word" is very specific, and i saw zero in that sentence. :)

[h88]

Haha, i know what you mean, lol!

[lostinbeta]

Yeah, I didn't want to say anything though :x

[h88]

wow, h88's post are just shooting up, his post per day has risen from 14 - 24 in one week, In a couple of months I won't be supprized if his up there with lost in post count

Andy, consider checking my profile. :lol:

[mad]

Heh, that's amusing. But if you've seen one you've seen them all. And having it stationary makes it a tad easy to see after a while of looking. Best to do it to your friends or something ^_^

[mp.Designs]

6...

[hl]

i am a genius!... wow! maybe i will make it to MIT (looks up at the heavens)

[cr125rider]

7, 6 F's as in the character and the whole paragraph is in the shape of an F. Ooooo they all say, he's perceptive.

[[uber]]
