Try this test.

Read the below sentence once, and once only. Read it as you would any other sentence but without stalling on words and looking only once at each word.

Count how many 'F's you can see along the way, and don't cheat.

FINISHED FILES ARE THE RE-
SULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTIF-
IC STUDY COMBINED WITH
THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS

How many did you find? (Be honest...or you'll kill the fun)

Look again.

How'd you go?

Curtis :blah

 

[Henry Williams]

I stuffed up! :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(

 

[Roar34]

6?

 

[Rosy]

I counted 6.

 

[Curtiger]

Well done, you two.
I and most count 3 first time. Most brains pass the 'f's in 'of' off as 'v's. Wierd!

Here's one that gets you thinking.

Say the colour of these words aloud...

Green

Orange

Blue

Yellow

Pink

Black

Red​

It's a bit tricky at first, isn't it. When you get the hang of it, say the words aloud.

I've got a trick t get through it.

How'd you go?

Curtis :blah

 

[Henry Williams]

Easy, just put it out of focus! ;D

[Henry Williams]

Is it counting a few different bits?
