I opened this thread with the number 6 running through my head

I must be psychic

Maybe my brain is flawed, but I had no problem counting 6 F's.

The trick is, you have to read it fast, not slowly, going back over it again and again.

You also have to have not heard of this kind of test before.

I'm really stupid. I did this test a couple of years ago. and pretty much knew what to look for.. i thought it was OF and IF but i still got 3.. even the second time i did it, still 3.
