The Captcha Contest Returns

Posted on 01.31.08 in General and there are 49 comments.

Last year we played a game called The Captcha Contest. It was quite hilarious, so I’ve decided to bring it back for some Friday fun.

How It Works

Here’s how it works:
Click on the comment link at the end of this post. Check out the captcha (usually a short word followed by a two digit number) and then write a humorous sentence using that word/number combo.

Be creative. Make us laugh. Win some music.

Win Stuff

Whoever writes the most clever, funny or creative entry winner will receive a $10 iTunes gift certificate. Jimmy will be the honorary judge. We’ll announce the winner on Monday.

Now go check out your captcha.

(FYI - If you get stuck with a really lame captcha, you can refresh the page to get a different word.)

Issue69 ??

I don’t want to play.

In the last contest, I gave you63 responses.  This time, I shall take a pass and let others try to make you laugh.

Brody,
That’s fine if you have an ISSUE-69 other people are sure to play…

Yes, it’s TRUE46 entries were submitted last time.

the front51 children in line were much better at dodge ball than the very last child, who was terrible at it.

Today is my birthday ima fine31
lookin’ for another year of bloggin’ good fun

seriously putting your new age on the world wide web should count for sumthin’…

On the surface62 percent of this is just nonsense.  But the central15 is actually very serious.

known12

If I’d known12 clever words to use in this sentence, I would have.

I won last year, so it might not be fair to play again.  But I’m gonna!  Because I have my own66 reasons for needing new music.  You see, I’m a missionary in a far off land…

(is it crass to use my missionary status to try to elicit sympathy and win a contest!??)

Oh well, I give46 kisses to you and your family today in hopes of making up for abuse of my missionary status.  Even63 kisses… just cuz I love you guys.

to ugly and broke MEN61 and older.

Couldnt16 people have found something better to do than this?  I don’t know what92 others may be up to today, but I’ve got a bill78 days overdue.  If I don’t pay it soon you can just guess the ways86 collection companies will hound me.

Euphrony,
You seriously make me laugh!  I’m sure you have47 other amusing things to say, so get to it!

Well, theres63 other things I could say, maybe more.  If I weren’t a man with a clean mind, they’d probably make you ill84 times out of a hundred.

But thanks, MC.

Hey Kat, I noticed that the link does not exist/work on my username listed on my last comment.  Have I done something wrong?  I know I have my faults, yet94 reasons come to mind why you should at least link me on your oh-so-popular blog.

I would like to include78 things I scratched off my to-do list, but sadly, I’m not that organized.

I had to think a hard19 minutes to come up with this sentence.

Guess I’ll have to call22 other people to find out how they would use “hard19” in a sentence.

...and then those 22 people can call their74 other friends… (This is fun.)

(Okay, I’ll stop.  Just use my first entry.)
Jeff

MC,
Your new blog is so popular now, it’s natural65 people have called me to let me know about that oversight. Fixed.

If I judge poorly, I will be writing37 times that “I shall never ever judge another captcha contest.”

What’s really odd is I checked the “notify me of follow-up comments box”, and I got61 in my ‘captcha’ word again…

Jimmy, lucky for you you are know under court protection: otherwise judging poorly could result in the letting of blood59 ways from Sunday.

The word “know” should be “now”.  I will write the above75 times to make sure I don’t repeat the mistake.

I wrote87 love letters to NKOTB (New Kids on the Block, for the non-fans), and it looks like they worked b/c they’re reuniting! 

(Judging from the other entries, our sentences don’t have to be true.)

I have RECEIVED73 e-mails from my friend today because we refuse to IM each other.  We like to clutter our inboxes.

Today in CONGRESS69 people fell asleep during the meeting. It was a day just like any other.

A long time ago59 politicians went to DC claiming their sincerity and vowing to prove it before they left the office. They’re still in DC…

"Why that’s not true at all,” cried that politician.  “The fund is working very well. The donor gives85 percent to me and the other 15 percent goes to my campaign!”

J--- and D---- shot92 beebees at the offending moles in defense of their landscaping only to have their flowers eaten by the deer. 

no politicians in this one… ok, stick a fork in me - i’m done!

We don’t have even37 comments yet, but clearly several winners.

Perhaps16 of us should be winners.

That was fun to read all of your comments...but i have to be in bed79 minutes from now.

I’ve tried63 different sentences, desperately searching for a witty little something deserving on that iTunes gift card! I have86 new albums I’m dying to buy! Help the poor college student out!

Brooke and Lindsey,
Over on my blog, there are at least16 new rules that should be issued during the state of the union address.  It seems that most of the attendees have been in history class41 times too many and need some new entertainment to keep them awake.  You two are funny!

She arises early to ready her home.

She bakes fresh muffins daily, filled with flaxseed and granola.

A day never passes without loving care from this momma.

No matter how hard she works88 of her children still need to be bathed and clothed this morning.

Whew, she is tired!

{And apparently so am I, because that is neither funny nor clever!}

Anyone reading this will think those35 people have too much time on their hands.

These are fun to read, so I will return14 times to check the comments. 

Oh, wait.  I already have.

Since when have I ever been able to complete26 push-ups?  Since never.

this is the last time i’m gonna refresh this browser, so i forward38 kudos to “euphrony” because i think itunes is pretty lame when you can get a whole album in your hands when you go to hmv.

It took me forever to develop22 ideas on how to respond to this.

I absolutely have to quit checking this, because it is so addicting - I don’t want to leave97 comments when the first one is the only one that counts, but it is so fun. Why don’t I have a captcha that makes words?

You guys are amazing!

Jimmy’s going to have a hard time picking a winner…

So far there have been 40 comments. This is by design41.

I think my comment will defeat all other comments and will devote to destruction all competing comments, and will leave none remaining, just like what happened to the king of Makkedah in Joshua ten28.

Please note that the Captcha Contest is now closed.

Jimmy hath decided.

Please return Monday night to learn who the winner is…

Oh. The. Drama.

i have waited too long! i should have listened to step79 in Joel Osteens new book, Your best Life Now, when he says, “don’t wait until it’s too late to play the captcha contest on Kat’s blog...you will deeply regret missing out on a $10 itunes card.”

I started34 times to come up with something, but I’ve got nothing even still.

I’ve never dated any boys54 or older.

Now I’m going to be checking this every38 seconds… it’s addicting.

Suddenly44 rays of light manifested themselves around the room, transmogrifying into enormous blob-like beings that gyrated madly, whirling like some sort of freakish Ferris wheel, to the tune of my unending, bloodcurdling screams.

Oh man, I just noticed that this is closed… that’s so sad.  Whoever wins this shindig, you should know that I’ll trade48 pieces of gum for that gift card.
