Trying to prove you’re not a robot used to be easy. Now it feels like a full psychological evaluation. In this comedy rant, Judy Croon takes on CAPTCHA tests — the blurry images, the impossible instructions, the traffic lights that won’t commit, and the moment you realize the computer might be judging you. From bicycle squares to audio tests that sound like Satan gargling alphabet soup, this is modern stress in its purest form. If you’ve ever clicked a square, un-clicked it, re-clicked it, and questioned your entire existence — this one’s for you.
