I was leaving a comment on a blog about feminism. I try to practice what I preach and use comments as an avenue of supporting other writers and bloggers. At times, I get nervous that what I’m conveying will be distorted or misunderstood – one of the many hazards of online communication.
As soon as I was done writing, I did one of those letter verification thingys to affirm my non-spam intentions. And lo and behold guess what my letters were in the mix:
*F U C K * U *
Oh my.
I was startled for a moment and then laughed by booty off.
Happy Hump Day!
That’s hilarious.
I’m not particularly happy with letter verification (also known as “captcha”); it’s hard to use for those with visual or certain learning disabilities. Captcha locks a lot of people from commenting on blogs as a result. I think this is true even if the letter verification provides a “disabled” option.
Next time, screen grab* that baby! haha!!
* hit the print screen button, then click paste while you’re in a paint/graphic program.
That’s awesome! My best one was ‘jizzm’.
