I am a freak who likes ugly people. by herbert (4.00 / 1) #2 Mon Jul 17, 2006 at 01:36:44 AM EST
Apparently.  Usually (based on three goes) the first two are obvious, then I am guessing between two candidates for the third place.

On the Voight-Kampff empathy test?

It picked me as a bot 3/3.
Rumbled. Dammit.

I'm a sucker for a cute smile, and find bimbos a turnoff.

At the moment I'm running at about 50:50 by Cloaked User (4.00 / 1) #8 Mon Jul 17, 2006 at 02:30:22 AM EST
The first one I got, my immediate thought was "What do you mean, 3?"

It's a nice idea (if perhaps a little insulting to the "non-hots" involved), but beauty is too subjective to make it reliable.

It's easy enough. by ambrosen (4.00 / 3) #11 Mon Jul 17, 2006 at 02:53:50 AM EST
Regardless of other features, pick the thinnest. If there are more than 3 thin people, order them by hair colour in the following manner: blonde, black, brown.

with eyes that look at you friendly, like:

Neither of these is at all appealing. Fake coy != friendly.

WIPO: Super mega gay by Rogerborg (4.00 / 1) #4 Mon Jul 17, 2006 at 01:59:58 AM EST
So, two up from riding a bike in the first place, or only one notch above a recumbant.

Hotcaptcha would seem to be exploitable by scanning for large peroxide-coloured areas.

Doesn't count if you acknowledge it's a girl's car by Rogerborg (2.00 / 0) #15 Mon Jul 17, 2006 at 04:37:28 AM EST
I don't necessarily agree with these rules, but we have to play the hands we're dealt.

Special Weegie rules? by ambrosen (4.00 / 1) #16 Mon Jul 17, 2006 at 04:55:18 AM EST
I see, if that's the way you want to play it.

I spent half an hour getting sprayed with warm oil last night. Now where was I? Oh yes, I was manlily maintaining my own French-made car. The job, 'tis done now, saving me £200. Which is pleasing.

Speaking as a Londoner by Cloaked User (4.00 / 1) #9 Mon Jul 17, 2006 at 02:36:35 AM EST
If I saw someone stealing a bike, I'd probably mind my own business too; I have no desire possibly to be assaulted over something as trivial as a bike, especially when if it's valuable it really should be insured.

As for phoning the police, I don't think it's really an emergency (as no-one is in immediate danger), and I've no idea what the numbers for any local police stations are. As the video shows, if the guy knows what he's doing, there isn't really enough time to call directory enquiries...

yay! I'm a human! by martingale (4.00 / 1) #10 Mon Jul 17, 2006 at 02:48:21 AM EST
I'm an illiterate human though, since I sadly picked one hottie and pressed the button immediately, thus missing two. And that was after first clicking an advertisement with a hottie in it, which got me off<g> to another page.

But on my third go I did pick three hotties and submit correctly. Take that all you subhuman freaks of husi! At least I'm not one of you!

She has a built in ability by ambrosen (4.00 / 1) #12 Mon Jul 17, 2006 at 04:05:51 AM EST
to take everything she sees, and now it seems I'm falling, falling for her. She seems to have an invisible touch, yeah. She reaches in and grabs right hold of your heart.

Well, you started it.



captcha by sasquatchan (4.00 / 1) #23 Mon Jul 17, 2006 at 06:43:23 AM EST
well, I did well on the women, only because I think they scour the hot/not ratings from near zero, to above 7, with a 4-6 thrown in to confuse ya.

If you want a real challenge, try the men. Maybe it's simple shallow/vanity, for women, don't pick the fat ones. Men ? No idea, since I'm obviously a bot there. (I tried the 'muscle flex' pose guys, the scummy skater dude sets, nothing seemed to work)
