A lot of times it 'fails' you on purpose to get more training data. If you pass the first check then it knows you're human, but gives you a second check with data its less sure about, to gather human responses. Thats why the second one usually has a bunch of pictures that then fade out to more pictures once you select them.

It shouldn't be my responsibility to train their stupid software. Fuck the Internet. I miss 2007 Internet with Geocities, angelfire, xanga, Live journal and Myspace. Back in the day I had like 10 favorite sites I would visit daily. Now, the whole freaking Internet is delivered through maybe 4 apps owned by billionaires that actively want to harm us for selfish gain. I'm sure it was bad back then too, but at least we didn't funnel the entire Internet through a handful of private companies.
