When I was young, my mother showed me an educational book that had things like riddles, puzzles, and mental exercises in it. One of these entries had a short, mundane paragraph, followed by some form of "what was wrong with that text?"
It then explained that I had missed the word "the" being on the end of one line but also the start of the next line which, indeed, I did miss. It suggested that the human mind couldn't see duplicate words split in such a way, at least in English, unless actively looking for them.
I now know that, while it did trick me, its theory was incorrect ... Because I can't not see "from from."
Perhaps you are the
the chosen one
That seems likely.
Spread the word!
Slap your theory on some linoleum tiles,
and deposit them on road surfaces.
What, like some kind of toynbee tiles?
🤣
