What's unusual about this paragraph? Just how quickly you can find out what is so funny about it. It looks fairly ordinary and plain that you might think nothing is wrong with it. In fact, nothing is wrong with it! It is highly curious though. Study it and think about it, but you still may not find anything odd. But if you work at it a bit, you could just find out.
No klaxons - just for fun.

Oh, and I was trying to play along following Taff's missing post, too.
Now it looks as if I was dumb, now that his post is shown. Ho hum.

The second sentence is a little odd, too. It looks as if it should be a question

the third sentence It looks... that you might...
Does that mean it Deliberately looks the way it does in order that you might miss the quirk? Or is the use of the word that just poor grammar.
