Crazy Captchas

Do you know what a captcha is?  If you think you don't, you probably do, and don't even know it.


It's those weird word combinations that websites ask you to type in when signing up for something or paying for a product or service online.  They were developed to ensure that you're a human and not a automated "bot." 


And just in case you were wondering, CAPTCHA is short for Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart. Yeah, I know, it's a stretch.


Anyway, sometimes these captchas spell out funny or weird phrases. I'm sure you've gotten a laugh out of them.  I found a bunch surfing around and thought I'd share these with you.
