Dear website designers:
If you're going to make those "type the sequence of letters/numbers in the following box of mishmashed stuff, to prove to us you're not a spam-bot" things case-sensitive, you need to use a font in which case is apparent even after the letters are randomized and made different sizes. Without comparing relative sizes, it is very hard to tell if an "S" is uppercase or lowercase.

Along the same lines, it seems you messed up on your "textual confirmation code" as well. You asked "What is one plus one?" To which the correct answer should be "two." IF you were looking for "2" as the correct answer, you should have posed the question as "What is 1 + 1?" Got it? You suck.

Your peeves are always stated so fiercely. I can picture your flashing eyes and would never EVER make those mistakes again if I was a web-designer.

CAPTCHAs are stupid. They're either self-defeating by being too easy to read, or impossible to decypher.

I am rather fond of KittenAuth, though.. should be supremely difficult for a computer to solve, yet very easy for a human:
