Captcha Preview

Type the characters you see in the picture /GMH4/ I AM NOT A BLASTED VIRUS I AM HUMAN, POET, ARTIST And you’re a confounded nuisance… Picture this— A world where a simple click Will send the comment more swiftly Will log you in faster No more silly letters in a grid If only… Well—I suppose its fine I’m a complainer, a nuisance, a swine But hey, fine, I’ll say it: Thanks, Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart It is things like you that will prevent a robotic takeover

You can write about anything, Laura ... no subject is too off the wall or random for you. I'm reminded of a poem I wrote awhile back about emoticons ... ha ha ha. PS. Am I the only that finds it childishly amusing when the CAPTCHA actually spells out something like LOL, BRB or ASS?? It's happened multiple times with me ...

Lol...oh my gosh, yes. It's very amusing - you're not alone. I think I wrote a poem about a message from the captcha not too long ago. Weirdly enough, I was inspired a lot by the computer automated thingie. Who would have known? <3~Laura

I totally agree with you… but at least this site makes um easy to see. I never understood why some sites make them so hard for the user to figure out.
