Can You Read Me Now??? (LOL)

Eonverye taht can raed tihs rsaie yuor hnad..Let me just simply add....I received this in an email this morning....and thought it was neat....I have very little to post about right now...so I am sharing this. My spell check is going mental!!!

To my 'selected' strange-minded friends:
If you can read the following paragraph, leave a comment and let me know!

Only great minds can read this
This is weird, but interesting!


fi yuo cna raed tihs, yuo hvae a sgtrane mnid too

Cna yuo raed tihs? Olny 55 plepoe out of 100 can.

i cdnuolt blveiee taht I cluod aulaclty uesdnatnrd waht I was rdanieg. The phaonmneal pweor of the hmuan mnid, aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it dseno't mtaetr in waht oerdr the ltteres in a wrod are, the olny iproamtnt tihng is taht the frsit and lsat ltteer be in the rghit pclae... The rset can be a taotl mses and you can sitll raed it whotuit a pboerlm.. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe. Azanmig huh? yaeh and I awlyas tghuhot slpeling was ipmorantt! if you can raed tihs let me konw.

I was seriously surprised that I could read it as easily and as quickly as my usual reading (and I am a fast reader)

Have a wonderful day friends!

I read it with ease!! Scary isn't it? What did you find on your junkin' outing?

Tamara Jansen said...

That is AMAZING! The Big Guy is dyslexic and he tells me that words on the written page always look like this to him. That would be tough to handle!

Lori said...

I was able to read this!!!!

It's it azmanig!!!

HeatherF1 said...

No problemo, and thankfully I can read upside down, too. That helps when reading contracts to clients!

Tootsie,
Weird, but yes I could understand it too! Cute photo

lillie mae acres said...

Yes, I can read it. I've received this email in the past too, it's funny how much effort is put into spelling, vowels, etc. in school.

Hi Tootsie,

I think I read this faster than most script. What does that say about me????

Hugs

Thoughtfully Blended Hearts said...

I read it, does that mean I have to stand in the corner, or go to the head of the class???
I spent many years working as a copy editor (fancy word for proofreader and it totally killed my love for reading). Many people actually spell this badly!!!

"Blossom" said...

Scary, Tootsie I could read it with out any problem. We must be related some where down the line of descent.

Helen said...

Our brains are wondrous things!

Marjorie (Molly) Smith said...

Betty said...

This is interesting. I read quickly and always knew that to do so meant you couldn't be looking at every letter.
Have a great day!

deb said...

I've seen this before, but enjoy seeing it again. So weird that it's so easy. Have a great day!
*hugs*Deb

Bonnie said...

Yes it is amazing. I had gotten this just recently in an e-mail too. I was glad to reason why it is easy to do.

Tracey McBride ~ Frugal Luxuries® said...

LOL you are sooo funny and clever Tootsie!! I love the way you posted this with the spell-check-down story! Very appropriate. Yes, that study at Cambridge is so interesting. I too could read it quite easily. The human mind IS so amazing. If, as is commonly believed, we humans only use ten percent of our brain IMAGINE what powers we must all be blessed with?!! Mind boggling.
Warmly,
Tracey

I read it easily - - - but then we ALREADY knew I was STRANGE.

Anonymous said...

Oh, Tootsie, I have a strange mind too because I can read it without no problem. It's amazing!
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)

Catherine@AGardenerinProgress said...

I could read it too. It took me a second to realize something was even wrong with the first line of the post.

Autumn Belle said...

Like everyone else here, I can read all of it. I wonder if dyslexics can read it too?

Patricia said...

Sigrun said...

I have seen this e-mail before, but being a humble person, I didn't assume it was because of any greatness on my part, I attributed it to 35 years of teaching, and reading everything from first grader's first phonetic efforts to Sixth Graders' reluctant writing, to Parent notes. AS far as the spell checker--you should see mine when I write in French or German--it absolutely hates the letters with diacritical marks. ☺☺

Urban Green said...

yay! yay! yay!
I did it. Great mind! :D

Happy To Be/ Gl♥ria said...

Of courde I could read it...it spelled just like I do ha ha! NO problem here...was great talking to you gorl...Love ya ..Gloria

Nutty Gnome said...

Ha ha, I could easily and quickly read it - but I assumed it was because of years of deciphering Himself's appaling handwriting!

Unknown said...

Yes, I can read it :)

Four Paws and Co said...

Yep, I buzzed right through it! Good one! ☺

Kelly B said...

I can read it!! I must be exceptionally strange!! Yeah me!! ;0)

Garden Lily said...

Funny thing, I could read it with no problem. So now worries if our kids are growing up nowadays not able to spell. ;-) Ha ha, actually my kids have weekly spelling tests, and are scoring near 100%.
