Can I just say, since you use word verification, that the new hoops blogger makes you jump thru to "Prove you're not a robot" suck ass. Fuck it, forget I asked permission because I'm gonna say it, permission or no. It makes commenting, even for us non-robots, a pain in the testes satchel. I'm no robot, but I can't make out those letters half the time! Yet it STILL doesn't prevent Carolina Cletus from leaving a comment! What good is it then?
THERE IS NO GOD!1!
Sorry. It's not just you - since blogger made this change, it's like that with EVERY blog that makes you pass a writing test to comment.
Bastards. Someone should send a SWAT team to where these blogger coders live ...
ADDED: Best part is, if you successfully type the correct letter[s] in and opt to PREVIEW your comment (to check for mistakes), blogger makes you RETYPE A DIFFERENT SET OF LETTERS to post the comment.
F[U]CKWADS!

Second Half
... of a comment I just left at Raulgonemobile because I think it is an issue that needs to be addressed and condemned for the HITLER that it is!1! (Also, I didn't want RGM to think it was just about his blog. It's about BLOGGER ... and anyone who's opted to use this particular filter. Also-also, the comment contains a really good sucker-punch aimed at Cletus, who had already commented on the post, and so there's little chance he'd see the insult, so I'm giving it the second life it deserves.)

Agreed. For a brief moment, it did have one useful purpose. One of the captchas (that's what they're called, btw) would be a photocopy of a scanned document; each person was helping to decipher text that was hard to read. It looks like that got abandoned after the first day, though.
ReplyDeleteDavy Jones died of a heart attack at 66, if you hadn't heard.
It's also called a Turin test, if you're on wikipedia. Still a fantastic digg there G. I hate it too.
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure a robot can figure out those words more easily than I can...
ReplyDeleteI hear your pain man.. I saw your comment come in and was completely in tune with what you were saying.
ReplyDeleteI was having a problem too, that I couldn't comment here or over at joyRuN, but managed to sort that out with my browser/cookies.
If you want to get yet another dig at CJ, you could correct him in saying that he meant to say 'Turing'.. or you could just let it slide, figuring the g got chewed up by the random letters.
Nice SWAT tie in, too.
