Let me quickly clarify that I don’t actually have dyslexia… but for some reason, my random ass “dyslexia” kicks in online and when doing math more than any other time in my life. Since I don’t often do math without a computer, calculator, or cellphone handy, it is the stupid CAPTCHA verification shit that throws me off as of late.
I go to vote for a comic I like, try to log into a site from a public computer, or post a comment on a blog and this damn fuzzy piece of shit thing is at the bottom that wants to verify that I’m a human. So, to do that, it gives me some random ass letters with lines and shit all over the place so I can’t tell if a letter is an I or an L, and then scolds me for being dumb, and asks me to try again.
Why can’t it just show like a random picture and ask us to tell it what the image is. Apple. Dinosaur. Bomb. Car. Muffin…. the list could go on and on. And bots don’t have any clue about those things cause they live on the internets and have never driven a car, blown up something, ate a muffin, smashed a dinosaurs face in with an apple… because they haven’t lived. It’s the perfect way to tell if someone is alive or a bot.
So, get with it internets. Stop making me feel dumb with random text I have to decypher and show me cute pictures instead.
Maybe you aren’t really human…?!?!?!
