This has been reposted a lot, but it is really weird that you can read it just fine.

I can read it, but not fast. I'd say about 1/2 my normal reading speed.

I read it pretty close to my normal reading speed. Although I did skip a few words because I am so fast.

 

[Chaotic42]

I thought I'd be able to read it faster since I have to read AP releases all of the time.

 

[petery83]

read it at ~80-90% normal reading speed
