Aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at an Elingsh Uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoetnt tihng is taht frist and lsat ltteer is at the rghit pclae. The rset can be a toatl mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae we do not raed ervey lteter by it slef but the wrod as a wlohe.

If you did get out a lot, you probably would have never read this.

Yes, that's why I was using sarcasm. It doesn't show well on the internet, I delcare that everyone must use <sarcasm> code when using sarcasm, to get rid of confusion.

Anyway, the first/last letters thing is a hoax. If you truly randomise letters, things are much harder to read, for example:
"Ardncciog to a rrhecacseh at Cgaridmde Usrievtiny, it dneso't metatr in waht oerdr the lrteets in a wrod are, the olny inpoertmt tnhig is taht the fsirt and lsat lteetr be at the rghit pcale. The rset can be a ttaol mses and you can sltil raed it wthiutt a pbolrem. Tihs is bscueae the hmaun mnid deos not raed eervy lteetr by iltesf, but the wrod as a wohle."
That isn't even nearly as easy to read as the hoax. This is because the hoax made sure to group combinations of letters which your brain automatically processes.

I agree. If you randomise the letters with the purpose of making it unreadable then it's not going to be all that easy to comprehend.

You'll notice that in that original, hoax passage the important letters are mostly in order. That's why it's so much easier to read.

Highlight the words below if you don't understand.
The longer the words, the more incomprehensible this shit gets.

I didn't get the word 'incomprehensible' ;)
I guess you could say that you found the word 'incomprehensible' to be incomprehensible.
heh :lol:

What you need to do is kill yourself using that cord that your daddy uses when he rapes you unconscious. Yes, that one.
And what YOU need to do is stop being such a rude bitty, otherwise Ill invade your house and rape your mum with a knife.

The funny thing is that you both hate eachother because you're practically the same person.

The folding technique or stupidity, you may call it.
It may make words difficult to read!
