my beef with them is that even though i'm not a robot, a machine or a spam virus, the images are so hard to decipher that half the time i can't even figure them out.
a typical scenario goes something like this:
me: {tilting head to side and squinty eyes} is that a lower case "d" or a "c" and an "l" real close together and tilted to the side?

me: {banging head against the computer screen}
sometimes, i end up having to re-captcha about 3 or 4 times until i get one that i can actually figure out. usually the phrases seem like a random pairing of words that don't make any sense, so i figured that they were the result of some kind of randomly generated program. but last week i got the following when i was trying to log into the book of faces.

maybe it's the new parent in me, but i didn't really find it funny...
