Weird Word Verifications

I have been noticing lately that the word verifications have been more wordlike, and some are quite funny. A couple of weeks ago I got this one: ursxy. I didn't think to save it, but since then I have been saving some of my favorites:
What kind of mania? Blog mania? NKOTB mania?
Lotsie hotsie?Halita. The less common form of halitosis.Clagra. Viagra for clowns.Opin your mouth. Shove food in. Glut.
Who went to a high school that started with a V? Or is the alum of VHS DVD?I got this one off of a food blog. Gross.
Can you think of a good explanation for this one?

I think they must have misspelled it. Shouldn't it say gratzit? Because we all know that zits are great (meaning enormous, or at least that's how we always feel).

Vanessa said...

Yes, NKOTB mania for me please.

Lara Neves said...

I have noticed them being more wordlike, and I often get a little kick out of them.

I am an alumvhs, since my high school was MVHS. There's also Viewmont up north of Salt Lake. :)

At least they're easier to type. I find myself passing them on the first try nowadays much more often than before.

Unknown said...

I think sometimes they are funny, but I have to say, I still hate these things. It is like a typing test every time I want to talk.

Suzie said...

I think they are all messages from outter space

GartZit. For folks who want to preserve their acne instead of eliminate it.

Christine said...

lol, this is one of those times when I regret eating cereal while reading blogs. I laughed a lot of milk back into my bowl.

tiburon said...

I have seen some funny ones too.

But it sure doesn't change the fact that I HATE word verification!

Christa said...

I've noticed the same thing about the word verifications. They've also been much easier to read which is a good thing for a word verification impaired individual like myself.

I wonder if NKOTB mania will start sweeping the nation, no, the world again. They're out on tour you know.

Megan and Jon said...

I love that they have become word like I get it in two or three tries now instead of dozens.
Gartzits, is an ad for acne medication. THis is all subliminal messaging to get to to purchase things.

Jan said...

I get a kick out of verifications. It drives some people mad, but I always look for things that relate to the post. I love the opinglut. To me it is someone who is always giving their opinion even when not wanted. They are a glutton for it. This is a riot.

Britt said...

I got the ursxy one the other day too. It made feel great!

Jessica said...

I also hate the verification but understand its purpose. I don't think we have met, but Michelle is my SIL, so I found you through her. Love the blog!

Jillene said...

Gartzit--it is short for gartgantuian zit. You know the ones that you get that look like a second head has started sprouting on your first one!!

Kristina P. said...

One of my blog friends has started doing a game out of the word verifications. I still don't like them.

Becky said...

Ah, word verification... the bane of bloggers everywhere. :)

rychelle said...

word verification often cracks me up.....or should i say annoy me? yeah, that's it, word verifcation annoys me.

Brittany Marie said...

I turned off my word verification and then I got The Commie Post. I'm conflicted.

Not about communism, but about the necessity of word verification.

Kathy P said...

HA HA -- these are funny. I guess that is the good thing about these annoying things... I will have to pay better attention.

Jen said...

That's funny you said that cuz I noticed the same thing. The funny one I saw was "sexyma".

Anonymous said...

I have no idea where they come up with these things!

*MARY* said...

I get pretty cool word verification words too, I never thought to save them though. Nobody believes my "uwlldie" story, I wish I would have saved it.

Heidi said...

I have totally been noticing this as well. Either someone is just entertaining himself or "they" are doing it intentionally either to trip us up so that we type in the actual word that is closest or so the random computer dialers won't--maybe because they aren't random enough. That's all I've got (but you must admit, it's more than enough)

Kimberly Vanderhorst said...

I read. I loved. I had too little time to write an insightful or sweet comment and left you this ridiculous cut and paste thingy instead. Mwah!

Jessi said...

Gartzit = Exlamation given by an acne ridden hick who has just succeeded in squeezing out the pus of a particularly difficult whitehead. The end.

I misspelled exclamation in that comment. Maybe it should be another word verifcation?
