Dictionary writers would be up a creek if we didn't invent new words. No new words, no new dictionaries, no new sales, no new dictionary writers.
So unless someone knows the real name for it, I think we should invent a name for the series of letters that blogger spits up before allowing one to post comments on some blogs.
I propose: Nodda (noun) NA DA from the Mayberry: meaning comments not allowed unless.
"I wanted to comment on her blog, but wouldn't nodda"
You can certainly do better. Have a great weekend, I'll be in KC.

No wonder you're up early -- have fun in the city!
ReplyDeleteSome of the letters ARE words -- while others are nonsense.
I like your term for that silliness!
i think they're called "captcha". Wikipedia agrees - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Captcha
ReplyDeleteHysterical!
ReplyDeleteMy word for this blogger comment is REDOR. Meaning to retrofit a door, to renovation one's entry way. Additionally, it may be used to offer an alternative to the color red, as in "red or fuchsia".
Captcha? how in the **** did you know this?
ReplyDeletei only know about captcha cos a friend was complaining about them on facebook
