I promise, I’m not a robot.

In attempting to reset a password in Google Analytics yesterday, I came across the following CAPTCHA images (those images of warped letters you have to make out to prove you’re not a computer, spider, or robot of some kind).

All I can say is… WTF?

I ended up forgoing the task and using the audio option (for the visually impaired). The woman calling off numbers to me amidst the crackling of static and the tuning of instruments was a far less challenging task.

    I think that first one is the the word I used to substitute for profanity when you were a small child (no wonder you don’t recognize it)

    I also think I purchased a rianamob (the second word)on ebay recently.

    I have to disagree, I think you might in fact be a robot.

    This happened to me once and I ended up creating a new account because it just kept pissing me off. It’s like trying to read my own handwriting.
