For a few moments I thought the puzzle was as simple as reading the phrase minus the trailing letters--maybe you were testing something by posting such an incredibly easy puzzle? Then I considered sorting the words by their trailing letters for a moment, and then the "correct" method presented itself. I think the sorting letters being close to "ABCDABCD" in order threw me off for a bit.
I consider myself a puzzle person. Also someone three weeks behind on LJ.
