If everyone knows that the top letter of an eye chart is
always E, it’s not much of a test, is it?
Again with the rhetorical questions today, Jeremy? Getting into the political spirit? Maybe due for a driver's license renewal?
Actually, none of the above. It's just the sort of thing that pops into my head every now and again.
So, you've all seen the charts they use for eye tests, with the colossal E on top, and working their way down in font size until you get to the microscopic crap that only I can read, apparently.
Aren't you special?
Now who's being rhetorical?
Anyway, it occurred to me that every last one of these eye charts that I can think of right now has always started with an E on top.
And everybody knows that. So, at the very least, you can pass the 20/200 part of the eye test every time by simply saying "E" whether or not you can actually read it.
