What I If Told You. .

. . .that you read the post title wrong?

 

[Liar]

God dammit.

No, the human brain fills in gaps and makes assumptions, but the one thing it excels at is spotting eyes. You even see them on the toilet staring at random tile patterns. It's a evolutionary trait, whereas reading, not so much. Anyone who has read a poorly printed paperback has probably experienced this. While something like this escaped me, it drives me crazy when I run across typos in books. They pay "professionals" to catch that shit!

I predict liars in this thread.

I hate it when I spend hours proof-reading something I wrote (especially for this site) and go over it with a fine toothed comb, think I fixed everything I could, submit it for public reading.... then after it's posted, go I back and find a stupid mistake like that.

I not only missed it the first time, I missed it when I looked back up to see what was wrong. Oops.

If I have written something on-screen and need to edit it and want to do a good job of it, I have to print it in order so to do. I miss all manner of dumb shit staring at the screen.

Goes back to post #3; the human mind just works like that in that it will read what you meant when it's your work. I think Lit has people who are willing, on a voluntary basis to go over your work before you post it.
