Does anyone else act more 'human' when solving captchas? - eviltoast

Whenever I have to do a captcha where you must select all tiles with bicycles, I know I can just click through super fast, but I feel like that might make the website suspicious, so I purposefully slow down like “Geez, this is a melon-scratcher!” or click and then unclick a tile like “whoops, silly me, thats an umbrella not a bicycle!” And wiggle the mouse randomly a bit as if Im double-checking my work even when I know damn well I got all the bicycles in 0.67 seconds.

Basically I feel like I have to act dumb so the internet doesn’t think I’m a bot. DAE get this?

    YES OF COURSE AS A FELLOW HUMAN I ALREADY ACT LIKE A HUMAN WOULD MOST OF THE TIME, BUT WHEN FILLING IN A CAPTCHA I PAY EXTRA ATTENTION TO ACTING LIKE A HUMAN WOULD. I WOULDN’T WANT ANY WEBSITE MISTAKING ME FOR A BOT HAHA. THEREFORE I ALWAYS MAKE A MISTAKE WHEN FILLING IN CAPTCHAS BECAUSE NO HUMAN IS PERFECT, UNLIKE US, I MEAN THEM BOTS.
