Look at the text below and quickly count the number of “F”s you see.

Effs,  Optical Illusion, Perception

Some people see only four. Most see five. Some get six. Very few see seven,
which is the correct number. Really, go back & count again, slower this time.
We are not as observant as we think…

Pick a card any card.

While there are many other real ones I could mention, I thought you might be interested in three of my favorite fictional ones:
