I found the the mistake.
the mistake was reading one of your threads.
never look at the obvious
I can’t see the the mistake at all.
the the what?
I think the colors of the 8 and 9 should be transposed.
Yep, they left out the zero.....
Thats discrimination against those who stutter !.....:o)
Well, regardless of the stuttering, I think the “6” is the wrong color. All the other even numbers are the colors they would be if you combined the surrounding odd numbers. That’s my take, and I’m sticking to it.
Found it, but not within 5 seconds
Yes. When speaking broken English, it should read "Can you spotting mistake?"
"You can to spotting mistake?" is also acceptable.
Yes, while reading the title. It should say, "Can you spot a/the mistake in less than 5 seconds?"
The number 9 is the wrong color in the order of the rainbow.
Overwrought presentation of an old teaser.
BTW: humans do need to filter & assume, lest they suffer analysis paralysis. Such riddles and puzzles take advantage of those self imposed limits.
But but I I repeat repeat myself myself. .
I thought the same thing.
I highly recommend the book, Eats Shoots and Leaves.
Well, by that logic didn't they also leave the 10, 11, 12...........?
None of the numbers are black and “THAT’S RACIST”.
There should only be one ‘R’ on your stupid name. Pis off nick, you are one as_ hole that needs to go to lucianne.com and stay there.
