freeflyer49 0 #1 April 27, 2001 A Quick Test Of Intelligence Read this sentence:FINISHED FILES ARE THE RESULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTIFIC STUDY COMBINED WITH THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS.Now count aloud the Fs in that sentence. Count them ONLY ONCE. Do not go back and count them again. Answer below:There are six F's in the sentence. One of average intelligence finds three of them. If you spotted four, you're above average. If you got five, you can turn your nose at most anybody. If you caught six, you are a genius.There is no catch. Many people overlook the Fs in the word "of." The human brain tends to see them as Vs and not Fs. Interesting, huh? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wingnut 0 #10 April 28, 2001 i bet freefallfreek finds only three.....i mean he is "fff", how could anybody count more than 3 f's in that sentance anyways. we all know "of" isn't a "real" word. real words are ones like: racer, vector, reflex, sabre, twin otter, and beer. all the other words there are, are just there so you can use the "real" words.<>"if dreams are like movies, then memories are like films about ghosts"-counting crows Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ditch9276 0 #11 April 28, 2001 oh damned devil i´m a genius too, perhaps it´ll be so cause we´ve in the german language some very interessting words with an ´f´ inside. but in english it´s the same for example the word "f***" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
