Skibidi toilet? As a 39-yr old millennial, I’m aware that was a thing like a year ago, but I assumed it was a Zoomer meme or something. I can’t get past that captcha.
EDIT: Upon looking at it again, I see it just wants me to type in “what is skibidi toilet” into Google, not answer what it is. Ugh, I’m turning into my Silent Generation/Boomer parents.
Skibidi toilet is actually one of the first gen alpha memes, not gen z.
Oh damn, I’m starting on the Boomer habit of complaining about Zoomer culture when it’s actually Alpha culture.
It feels like yesterday, Boomers were complaining about how annoying millennial kids were, when we were actually adults in our 20s/30s at the time. I’m just realizing that was over a decade ago, and now I’m doing the same thing to Zoomers. Someone please stop time before I get any older; I want to get off.
Poor Gen Xers still don’t exist.
As a Millennial, I’m now too old to tell the difference.
Yeah, I was guessing my way through most of this, and while I’ve seen the thing I didn’t know what it’s called.

Yeah, maybe the m CAPTCHA developers only wanted to share nostalgic memories of Google search results without ads. EDIT : let me fact check before I’ve written a lot of nonsense. Yes, seems fair. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millennials
My genX ass was trying skibidi on its own cause most of the rest of the text is usually auto-suggested while typing in the search terms.
Ha! It took me a minute too to realize that having to google WTF a skibidi toilet is was the Millennial test, not being expected to know it.
Finally, a sterotype of “millennial” that recognizes we kinda be old now!
You must be. It literally tells you what to do. Of course, I assumed proper grammar and got it wrong the first time.
Do you also respond to Amazon reviews “that hasn’t happened to me”?

More of a Simple Simon Says… really
This needs at least one flash game to be accurate

I passed it first try as a zoomer
Same.
I had the most trouble with the iPod.
Same, but only because I didn’t expect the website to support the real interaction modality
Easy Gen X pass. I actually think Gen X would be able to pass all generational captchas. We’re the first “microchip” generation and have generally kept up and lived through most of the tech fads and changes.
Half of you are like this, the other are Boomer-like in their tech abilities
Yes unfortunately some were hit too many times with the stupid stick as a form of child rearing. The rest of us learnt to code BASIC to pass the time as latchkey kids.

Can you fail?
I was a little lost until the iPod and the t9 showed up, then it was almost scary how normal it all felt. I didn’t even realize I still remembered t9 but I didn’t even have to think.
T9 is the predictive word one. That Nokia used the original single-letter-at-a-time method, and it got me when I guessed that it was T9 (which was around for much longer than the single-letter method).
Yes, you’re right, my mistake!
I mean, it was 15-20 years ago, so not like it’s exactly recent memory!
This was easy but have no idea what a boomerang is but I don’t use Instagram. I never owned an ipod but they are easy to use.
The iPod was throwing me until they blew me away by actually making it so I have to spin my finger on the pad. If I hadn’t been on mobile idk if I ever would’ve got past thinking “Did he fucking feature with someone? I don’t fucking listen to Sufjan Stevens…”
yeah, they should’ve picked a more common artist. i thought it was a trick about knowing the lead singer of a band at first.
I would say they picked a pretty millennial specific artist.
Really? I have no idea who that artist is. Is it someone I’ve just forgotten about from when we were younger?
I think the issue is that it’s not also millenial-universal. If only some millenials know it, the rest of us is left out.
I can still operate the iPod though, so I don’t need to know who it is to look for and select.
.
I pressed Your Story and it worked just as well.
I’m a zoomer, this was actually kinda hard. Especially the iPod and the select some guy ones. Would definitely keep me away from millennial only sites unless I REALLY wanted in. Nowadays I get annoyed at sites that even still use a captcha, cloudflare at least got rid of the kind where people fail at.
I’m a zoomer and honestly I had no problems with it. I only failed the Michael Cera one because I didn’t notice one of the images had a secret hidden Michael Cera
It’s a terrible introduction. Should’ve been half-and-half Michael Cera and Jesse Eisenberg.
I’m a millennial and didn’t know who that is. But I don’t know any actors so unsurprising. I did end up just figuring out which face was the most popular and selecting that.
But the rest were fairly easy. I still don’t know what a Skibidi toilet is though.
If this was a real Captcha, it’d be timed too. They probably track individual clicks, even, although I haven’t actually checked.
As a late Gen X, I was completely lost. So, I guess it’s official: I don’t get your generation.
It’s kinda weird being close to X in age and so far away culturally.
If you can’t T9 we can’t accept you.
Don’t know how to post the boomerang, but passed everything else (I think) as a 20 year old gen z
I still don’t know what a boomerang is or was, but I guess I clicked the right button, so I didn’t miss any of them.
A boomerang is a clip that plays and rewinds in a loop, like it’s flying to the end of the clip and returning like a boomerang.
I don’t even use Instagram myself, why do I know this
I think the point of that one is that millennials post to their friends, not to their stories.
I’ve never posted to instagram as a millennial. I think that by the time something that wasn’t Facebook came around we learned that posting photos of ourselves online maybe wasn’t smart
*American captcha
(Or westerner captcha, cuz I have no idea)
I got to step 3 and it said Post the Boomerang? What the hell does that mean?
A boomerang is a short video that runs forwards, then backwards, then repeats. The post was already a boomerang, so you just needed to click share.
Yeah, a lot of these were lessened because the task was easy without any knowledge. I like the iPod one because the UX would be unfamiliar to someone who didn’t use it. But things like “Type {phrase} into the search box” are really just a lame way to make a reference.
I guess sending something BACK, so I hit the “your story” button. Don’t even know which app that was supposed to be.
Boomerang was an old feature on Instagram where it would just take a video and then loop it backwards when it reached the end. It was a really stupid phenomenon that nobody really used, hence the reason the got rid of it.
Exactly, a millennial has now clue about the newfangled kids stuff. Just hit “close friends”
That was quite fun XD
They really put some work into this
／(=✪㉨✪=)＼
The autocomplete for the second one gets vicious.
Oh! I just copy pasted from the question.
I had absolutely no trouble until a slight delay on the iPod but had to give up a little later as my elder millennial ass forgot how to type on an old school Nokia 😄
Yea, I’m sorry but what’s this iPod thing… can’t I get an MP3 CD player?
Or, even better, an off-brand Discman 😄
I was going to make an annoying comment about how I’m a younger millenial (almosy gen-z) and immediately remembered how to do it, but then I realize it probably got imprinted in my brain a lot more strongly because I was younger when I got exposed to it.
Yeah, I was already in my late teens when I got my first phone, so I have no doubt you benefitted from learning young compared to me lol
I was sure that one had t9 so it took me sec too!
This is art and I love it lol
Now I wanna see if I fail other generational Captchas!
