For how long has LJ demanded non-LJers use a Capcha thingy when commenting? I've been making posts for [livejournal.com profile] bg_thomas, who is laid up in hospital poor man, and was just shocked to the core of my being when I tried to comment before logging back into my account.

I have wet socks again :( Maybe I need to get a pair of these:



WELLIES!! Honestly you lot!

I think the captcha thing has been there for a while for anon commenters. I think my eyes are getting worse, because I'm finding those damn things harder and harder to read! Or maybe I'm actually turning into a bot! That most be it!

Speaking of bots, nice picture! Though it could use a NSFW warning on it! :D

Warning applied. :)

With the captchas I make use of the 'gimme a new one' button until one pops up that I can read. Some of them are unintelligible.

Oh yes, the number if times I have to retry to get one I can read is definitely going up.

I do that too. Some are hopeless. Even so, even with easy ones, I have gotten them wrong sometimes.

HOT! And these men are Wellies? Is that like a group or something?

What is a "Capcha thingy?"

HOT PICTURE!!

Love the icon.

Captcha (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CAPTCHA) - the thing that makes sure you're not a spam bot.

Wellies (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wellies) - rubberised canvas boots worn by people who want to keep their feet dry. I honestly couldn't think of anything to do with the other components of the picture, other than insist they put on boxers. That door looks splintery.

But think of getting to help take the splinters out!

Bloody Captchas are a pain in the erm...bum. ;) I either can't see them properly or I copy them correctly and they STILL insist it's wrong. Grrr! Nice picture. ;)

I can put up with Captchas if it means not getting my account hacked. >:(

But yes, nice piccie.

I don't know if you noticed, but there's a rugby ball by the door. If I knew which team they played for I'd be happy to go and give them a cheer.

So there is!! I hadn't noticed!! ;o)

I do love a man in wellies - shows he's got a practical side & doesn't mind looking faintly ridiculous :-)

Oh yes. Those men are appealing because-- practical. I need several around my house to... fix things.

Absolutely! Wellies set off a good pair of lallies too.

Polari? Lallies=legs. :) I've spent far too much time listening to Hugh Paddick and Kenneth Williams.

Let me guess... Stade Francais? The rugby ball hiding behind the barn door is a dead give away ;)

PS. That chap on the left has unfeasible large thighs.

He does! I can't imagine how he gets his knickers on unless he wears bloomers with drawstrings.

*sigh* I so want to photoshop that now.
