CAPTCHA Says The Darndest Things
You never know what will pop up when you ask a computer to randomly generate words for you, which is exactly what happens when CAPTCHA generates text for you to type to prove you are a human.
Pixelated Geek recently ran an article entitled "More CAPTCHA humor" showing some funny examples they found. But CAPTCHA humor can strike anywhere. It actually hit close to home when I was trying to post a comment on this very site and CAPTCHA gave me this mildly racist phrase:
Redskins AGAIN?! Sounds like the refrain from early American pioneers moments before a slaughter.
There's been a movement to get sports teams to change names that may be insensitive to Native Americans. Removing said words from CAPTCHA would probably be a decent precursor to achieving that goal.
