I was a little lost until the iPod and the t9 showed up, then it was almost scary how normal it all felt. I didn’t even realize I still remembered t9 but I didn’t even have to think.
How TF does it expect me to identify a person? I’m bad at identifying people I didn’t even know who it was. Had to keep trying random combinations. Rest were easy enough though. For the texting one, I kept trying the options button before realising I had to press verify.
Yeah, a lot of these were lessened because the task was easy without any knowledge. I like the iPod one because the UX would be unfamiliar to someone who didn’t use it. But things like “Type {phrase} into the search box” are really just a lame way to make a reference.
I had absolutely no trouble until a slight delay on the iPod but had to give up a little later as my elder millennial ass forgot how to type on an old school Nokia 😄
Skibidi toilet? As a 39-yr old millennial, I’m aware that was a thing like a year ago, but I assumed it was a Zoomer meme or something. I can’t get past that captcha.
EDIT: Upon looking at it again, I see it just wants me to type in “what is skibidi toilet” into Google, not answer what it is. Ugh, I’m turning into my Silent Generation/Boomer parents.

Yeah, maybe the m CAPTCHA developers only wanted to share nostalgic memories of Google search results without ads.
EDIT : let me fact check before I’ve written a lot of nonsense. Yes, seems fair. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millennials
Just because I still like the postal service doesn’t make me old. Ok the fact that I could’ve been referring to the band or the government agency and still been accurate might mean I’m old
I don’t understand the Michael Cera one. I got passed it but I’m still convinced there are only 3 pictures with him in it. That picture quality is atrocious.

I got to step 3 and it said Post the Boomerang? What the hell does that mean?
A boomerang is a short video that runs forwards, then backwards, then repeats. The post was already a boomerang, so you just needed to click share.

Exactly, a millennial has now clue about the newfangled kids stuff. Just hit “close friends”

This needs at least one flash game to be accurate

You must be. It literally tells you what to do. Of course, I assumed proper grammar and got it wrong the first time.
My genX ass was trying skibidi on its own cause most of the rest of the text is usually auto-suggested while typing in the search terms.
More of a Simple Simon Says… really

Now I wanna see if I fail other generational Captchas!
*American captcha
(Or westerner captcha, cuz I have no idea)
I wasn’t able to get past the donate to Obama phase.
