[BlindMansTicket]

That is interesting.

[[/sarcasm]]

Wow. Incredible. That must be why you can only read some typo and not all... If they mix up a few letters, including one of the first or the last, it could totally screw up your comprehension.

I couldn't believe that I could actually understand what I was reading. The phenominal power of the human mind, according to a research at Cambridge University, it doesn't matter in what order the letters in a word are, the only important thing is that the first and last letter be in the right place. The rest can be a total mess and you can still read it without a problem. This is because the human mind does not read every letter by itself, but the word as a whole. Amazing, huh? Yeah, and I always though spelling was important. If you can read this, repost it.

I actually got an email like that a couple times it is pretty cool i think

[slimp]

iproamtnt= important right?
yeah i was able to read it, obviously. its weird as hell to look @ at first but yeah, thats pretty cool.

[fleaflickerx]

i read the first line then my eyes hurt

[Nubli]

As long as the first and last letters are in the correct spot, you can basically read anything (assuming you have the right amount of letters.) To be honest, I read that whole thing without much difficulty.

[Blind_Leader]

tahts fnuny, I nveer kenw you culod do taht... tanhks for the psot!! =)

[DaCougarMech]

ive seen that before
pretty cool but what's with the 1340 people thing?
im pretty sure more people can read that

[Beholder99]

yea i could read it well, im sure more than 1340 people could read that, look at the competence lvl of this site and that disproves that number

[Warslut]

Seen that a lot before Chesh! Get with the times eh and first time I saw it I could read it fine.

[Foog]

[Fykins]

[nujabes]

[pyrocrow]

I read that like a fourth language. Behind english, nospacebartyping, and spanish. Pretty cool.

[BlackMage908]

I saw that on a show called Brainiac on G4.

[Spitfire]

Jeez. 1am and Its still easily read.

[Shellz]

[Jazzmaster]

I could read that with ease... I guess that means I hang out on battle.net too much...

[tyrannt]

Yea, ive seen that somewhere before. That and where they have colors written out and you have to say the color of that word, not what the word says.
