Thursday Thirteen: Captchas Gone Wild
(Word Verification Challenge)
Get all 13 and win a prize!
Congratulations to Luin from Faerytale Dreams for winning the Captcha Contest!
We have all been there. We want to leave a comment but can't get past the stupid captcha! A captcha is basically a word verification to help prevent spam, a necessary evil. Anyway here are some captchas that stumped me. Can you guess them all?

I hate those things! I can never get it right!!! Though I know they are necessary, it is annoy!
Happy Thursday!
(I can actually read this one below! Woo Hoo!)
LOL! That was just about the best TT I've seen ever! The funniest part - I actually tried to do the first one on the list... Am I ever an airhead...
My TT is up.
Oh those things are an absolute annoyance to do, especially those that are really, really hard to read. Oh, well . .. they do filter out the spam.
Great TT! Hate those things, keep thinking I need new glasses but then I hear everybody complaining about these codes!
oh wow, some of those are impossible to read. I wonder why they do that. But, they are worth it at least.. it stops the spam.
Those are hilarious. Of course, you have the captcha as well!
My 13 is up!
That is so true! Great idea for a list!
I do NOT need any more frustration this morning, won't even try to win your contest. Great point you've made. COOL, funny list. ;)
Arrgh, flashbacks...Those things are a pain in the butt lol
What a hoot!! Ya know?---I've caught myself trying to rearrange the letters to make words from them!! roflmao
My T T is published. Your 13 was very enjoyable....
and now for the test. Let's just see what I get with your word verification!! Aha! An easy one.
OMG, this soooooooooo ROCKS. I hate those word verification things and even post it 13 reasons I hate them once, lol. This is GOOD! Happy TT! :-)
I hate spam too, so for all ya'll that put us through these things PLEASE get spam karma and you will have no more spam and I will not have to endure these things, tee hee hee. :-)
looks like the first one is smarmy. That's funny. I often have to enter them 2 or 3 times. hate them, but no spam.
Those were AWFUL!!!!! It is so annoying when I have to redo it THREE times to get one right!!!
My thirteen are up. Have a great day.
Wow, I totally loved your list. I could probably add a few more that have stumped me too. My TT is up.
I never knew what those were called, but I can't even count the number of times, I've been blocked. Sometimes I just type in anything so a new one will come up. In fact, I got blocked on this one.
This was a great and humorous list. Thanks for stopping by my MM.
I hate those things!! They are hard on the eyes!
no kidding- they are impossible-
I was going to respond with "please don't take my heart away' but decided it might sound like a come on or something...
I hate those things! This was a good idea for T13!
Do they really have to make them that hard to read? I sometimes have to do them over three or four times when I'd swear to God that I got it right the first time.
F'in spammers!
Absolutely hilarious!!! I HATE those things, though they saved my butt from spam when I had a blogger account. I always get the long ones.
It's like abstract art! I love the pigrape one! Sick, but funny!
I think I need to go lay down now...
LOL
LOL! Yeah, those are pretty tricky!
Oh my gosh, this is the funniest TT ever! :) Most of those are just horrible! Great idea for a TT!
My TT is up.
Clever idea for a 13...I find those frustrating sometimes too!
Thanks for visiting my site:)
I can't stand captchas! What is even worse and when people have captchas and comment moderation on!
Oh my goodness! some of those were unreadable! Interesting idea -- must have taken quite some time to put this post together!
Thanks for coming by my list.
I agree - some are so hard! I don't know how many times I get the error page and have to do it all over again. A necessary evil.
These things drive me nuts. I know that they are needed for the spam and all that but why do they have to be so difficult to read? LOL!
Happy Thursday!

(snicker) That is a great list! You know, blogger has a "handicapped" feature on their word ver. now - looks like somebody may need to use it!!!
This was great! I hate it when I get it wrong, makes me feel kinda dumb!! Very funny TT and the one about the pig...that is just wrong!! Thanks for stopping by mine.
This is a really good list. I hate those things too! I always feel sorry for anyone that might be dyslexic, I mean if it's hard enough for most of us to see the letters and numbers properly and manage to get them right, then how much more difficult must it be for someone with a reading problem?
What I really hate is when you do get it right but it keeps on telling you that you didn't.
Thanks for the visit to my T13. LOL. That was GREAT! I am often befuddled by what is in those boxes and sometimes I have to enter the guess more than once. SOOOO freakin' frustrating!
Cool TT! I hate trying to type those litte codes in.
PS: wnerbds LOL
great one - I heard we had a similar T13 up today, I had to stop by....
your list seems to have more thought behind it, but I didn't know where else to go to find more word verifications....
stop by and see my similar list :)
as I look down and she has it! :) and I get it WRONG!!!!!!
ugh - trying to read those gives me a headache...
and being part typist, I hate WV too....but it's a necessary evil..
My TT is up :-)

Great TT! Such a great idea. What necessary evils.
hahaha! that's a cool T13! i love it and i DO hate those @#$$%&^@#$ things!

Those things drive me nuts too.. but I have one on my blog to keep out the spam bots. :(

you got a CAPTCHA for your comments too!!!
but you really taught me something, i knew what those word verification were for, but i never knew what they were called til now. in MSN/hotmail, those are called HIP challenges, i think. :)
