Yay! I know Elingsh!

:
Aoccdrnig to rscheearch at an Elingsh uinervtisy, it deosn’t mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, olny taht the frist and lsat ltteres are at the rghit pcleas. The rset can be a toatl mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit a porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae we do not raed ervey lteter by ilstef, but the wrod as a wlohe.
For those of you who haven't seen it yet. It reminds me of the poem that went around that had plenty of spelling and gramer errors, but would completely pass spell check.

I thnik its ptrety cool. Dno't you?

"Why do you have to quote others when you can quote yourself?" (Quote by me)
Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent.
Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent.
Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil?
Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God.
You see things, and you say 'why'. But i dream things that never were and i say 'why not'.

I can read it okay, but it annoyed me with all those spelling errors.

Must be the latest thing around the net. Saw it today on Gaming Extreme as well.

That's just... Weird. I can remember a similar gag, something about not noticing the word "of". But I can't seem to remember the actual line...

Actually, speaking of having to know the word in the first place. What exactly does "fkaery" in your first sentence mean? I can't tell.

As for it being a subject of hype, I guess once something gets going, every forum will experience it. Maybe we should start up some scandalous lie
