The reasoning is that the brain cannot process the word "OF".

Incredible or what?

Anyone who counts all six F's on the first go is a genius. Three is normal.

I got 6 - people tend to read quickly and miss the OF.

But I read each word in my head, almost like spoken thoughts. So I read the word OF and saw the F in all three of them.
