Captcha Band Names

[profundis]

You ever fill out those Captcha things in order to post somewhere or friend someone? Sometimes the random words they come up with for you to type in make interesting phrases.

Today I got "punctured nonsense" and "clever dioceses" and thought those sounded like great band names.

Just a note, about half of the words on Captcha are actually from books that have been scanned in. They are using Captcha's to digitally archive books... pretty neat fun fact.

I actually know someone who's job (or at least part of his job) is to remove "bad combinations" from the Captcha database... since they're all dynamically generated you get some nice gems like

"Asian laundry"
"perfect Hitler"
"nonsense Christan"
"happy genocide"

I'm sure there's a website somewhere with a comprehensive list.
