It certainly is, but then some of us are more 'special' than others aren't we Stokey? :o :P Count every F in the below paragraph:

I'll have whatever Wholley's on please... :o Speaking of which, when you take a visit to Number 6 I wouldn't mind getting a round or two in for the few of you if the pennies permit it with me being legal and all from next month so you can educate me on the joys of the Royal Marines. :P Anyway, how many F's did you count first time? Be honest. ;)

There are people who find four and it isn't a bad thing to do so, I'm saying no more for the moment.... ;) Interesting to see the variation of the results so far, I'm waiting for somebody to come up with double digits. :P

There are 6 F's in the paragraph. :) The reason that people come up with different results is due to many people's brain ignoring the word 'of', hence why Stokey only counted 3 F's. :P Apparently 3 is normal, 4 (and presumably 5) is quite uncommon and 6 is rare.
