There are billions of people and a version of normal to go along with each one of them. No two versions are exactly the same. There will be hundreds of thousands of little things that make up your version of normal. With any luck you can find people that have close to the same idea of what normal is that you do. These are your friends. Anyone else you try to tolerate as best you can.
....
The exact definition of normal depends on who's running the asylum.

5476 - You been captchad
Here's the color code for a resistor.
By checking the chart you can verify that this is a 220-ohm resistor.
Please check all the squares with 220-ohm resistors.
Click the verify button to proceed. If it doesn't seem to work, just keep clicking.
I don't mind those Captchas too much, but when they're in a foreign language I have to guess what it is I'm supposed to be clicking on and when I get three in a row all wrong it gets annoying.
I can't even figure out how to get from picture 1 to picture 2, let alone take the time to check all the captcha blocks. My math isn't working.
I do find that many verification checks aren't really necessary - you can just hit Publish and your comment goes through. Not a very secure system, but handy for the user :) Yours is one of these, by the way.

ReplyDeleteI do mind the captchas. And proving I am not a robot. More, because the robots seem to get through without any difficulty.
ReplyDeleteIsn't it cute that resistors have a "tolerance" band. Wouldn't it be nice if people did, too?
ReplyDeleteIF I had to verify myself with that captcha, I would decide it wasn't worth leaving a comment.

ReplyDeleteYeah, that's about how ridiculous those captcha requirements are!

River - Captchas are annoying, period.
ReplyDeleteSue - I find the comment moderation for day-old posts to work better.
Bill - I think my band would be triple gold.
Kathy - You can just try for so long before moving on.
Deb - I think the most I've had to do in a row (try again) was 5.
Jenny - MarkD60 told me about that. If you are logged on to blogger you can just hit publish.
Wow! This is the kind of stuff you used to work with everyday. That would twist anybody Mike!
ReplyDeleteCloudia - Yep. And I used to build Heath Kits. I would get all the piece parts in a bag and solder them onto the circuit board.
