Captcha memes and jokes (part 2)

Saturday, 8 February 2025

If any robots happen to be reading this, then I'm afraid I've got some bad news. Unfortunately, you won't be able to read this week's blog post, as it features several captchas.

The good news for any humans reading this, however, is that you won't have to waste time filling out annoying captcha tests, because the captchas featured below are all just silly memes!

1) Star Wars captcha

The Cantina in Star Wars had a 'No Droids' policy, so this next captcha would have been perfect for them.

"These aren't the droids you're looking for."

2) Captcha condundrum

Why do some websites now have two rounds of images to solve a captcha?

Does this mean that robots have become intelligent enough to solve the first round of images?

3) Teddy bear captcha

This next captcha probably would actually fool a robot, because at first glance the puppies do look very much like teddy bears!

The puppy in the middle left photo had me fooled for a moment.

4) Captcha fail

When you fail the captcha three times...

"He's more machine now than man."

5) Cinnamon bun captcha

Surely every image contains cinnamon buns?

Mmm, those cinnamon buns look pugtastic!

6) What makes us human?

All this time we thought it was our ability to love that made us human, but it turns out it was actually our ability to select each image containing traffic lights.

7) Terminator captcha

With some captchas, you can't help wondering if the AI you're helping to train has some sort of nefarious purpose in mind.

I asked the Terminator why he wouldn't upgrade to windows 10.
"I still love vista, baby!" he replied.

Editor's note: "You're lucky he didn't shoot you! After all, the Terminator's goal was to exterminate the human race."
Charles: "I didn't really ask him about upgrading Windows. It was just a joke."
Editor: "Oh, right. So what did you really ask him about then?"
Charles: "Nothing! I've never met him! It's just a joke!"
Editor: "Oh, right."

My short story, 'The Android', is ideal for both humans and robots alike, as it requires no captcha completion tests in order to be able to read it! It's available for kindle from Amazon.
