    i think this was meant to be a shitpost and has no intended solution. out of all the crappy ones i could find on google this one makes the most sense, but given how there was probably no intended solution this one still doesn’t make a lot of sense overall

    Spoiler

    its the letter f.

    once a year: thats the f in Feburary

    twice a month: the month has 4 weeks and the 2 f’s are the First and Fourth weeks.

    four times a week: the week has 7 days and the 4 f’s are the First, Fourth and FiFth days.

    six times a day: a day has 24 hours and the 6 f’s are the First, Fourth, Fifth, Fourteenth, Fifteenth and twenty-Fourth hours (yes there are 2 f’s in fifteen)

      There are already 7 before getting to twenty-Fourth. (Which is the next day anyway) But yeah, that almost makes sense

          I was. If you instead count midnight as “first hour”, 01:00 as “second hour”, etc, then “twenty Fourth hour” has at least the 8th F.
