I was wondering why there were captcha's on a few of the survey's that I completed. Thing's have really gone south over the past year or so it seems.

Guys, be careful the next time you think it's safe to eat that pie.

My stepdaughter's friend just walked in and said "HAPPY 9/11, HAHAHAHA, JUST KIDDING, HAHAHA." You weren't even alive little girl, you hush yer mouth.

stepdaughter's friend has no idea

 

[theturkscribe]

They only way we could change any of it is by following through on T @theturkscribe's idea.

 

[Despairagus]

What was your idea?

 

[Kennedy]

what happened.... feels like it totally just trailed off.

Don't say that. I just got back here.

 

[theturkscribe]

What was your idea?

Start a social media campaign where we post videos of ourselves saying we are not robots and use some predetermined hashtags.

No just asparagus. We're really trying to shed our robotic image.
Are you ready for the food fetish creeps though? LOL

 

[mboone73]

I'm just so glad we don't have to copy numbers/letters. At least I haven't. It's quite easy to click the I am not a robot comparatively..

Which makes me wonder why a robot can't do it?

I have to type in numbers and letters for the mechanical turk captchas, because I'm a non masters pleb. The survey captchas are a grab bag of rage inducing things.
