Easy: The text in the top green area looks like weird gibberish. No real language could possibly look that funny, so it's probably some kind of placeholder text. ;-) Dangerous Beans |

"Please help us improve this page by answering one question"
There's no WTF, unless upon clicking "yes", you get a second question. If you choose either yes or no, you may have helped (off the top of my head, by increasing hit count of the tracking widget, thus boosting advertising or other metrics; maybe there is some other thing that answering this question helps with), and it's internally consistent. captcha nulla = Holla at my %SQL_TEXT family! |

Yup, you figured it out. Despite the inability to come up with daily WTFs, Alex is sitting on a lengthy backlog of submitted material. For example, I've submitted the following unseen gems: * A screen shot of my laptop simultaneously showing 17 minutes and over 10 hours of battery life remaining, vaguely similar to today's time sync WTF. * A picture of my cell phone displaying two different times, remarkably similar to today's time sync WTF. * A scan of my receipt from a national restaurant chain in which the randomly generated "enter this on our website" code soundly curses me out. But nooooooo... I guess the world just has too much WTF for even Alex to stomach. |

I recommend Johnson/No Johnson's adjustable on-the-fly Crouching Tranny, Hidden Dick line of trapwear undergarments. You don't have to be "in disguise" in them all day, but you just never know when they'll come in handy. Sometimes I use it when I feel like approaching women, or just using the ladies' room. Or when trying to catch a muff diver. Only when they realize where it's going do you see a bigger look of shock! OOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHH YYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

Perfectly straightforward. If you press "Yes", it means you are prepared to help them improve their page by answering the question, which will follow on afterwards. If you press "No", they won't bother you with that question. This is standard, although it is usually worded "Would you like to help us by participating in our survey? It will only take about five minutes." This is of course always a lie, it will take between twenty minutes and an hour, and you will probably have logged out in sheer frustration as yet another seething heap of steaming smelly "select-0-to-10" questions splatters across your screen. |

OK, let me translate that for you (quality of translation not guaranteed).
TL;DR: It's a job ad, for a position apparently named "LOREM IPSUM DOLOR". I didn't translate the job description from Latin, but apparently it involves some "denouncing with righteous indignation". Sounds fun! |

The clock sync issue on Android happens sometimes. The clock in the notification bar is part of the android system, but the clock on the desktop is a widget. If RAM is running low, applications get kicked out of RAM, and that can include widgets. Usually, in that case, they just won't update, and time will "freeze" for the widget.
What's weird in that case is that the widget seems to be AHEAD of the system clock. Or it's almost a full day behind - which might actually be the more likely occurance. The real WTF is that people need a giant clock widget on their desktop when the time is already prominantly displayed on the top bar ALL THE TIME. My captcha is "Letatio". I'm not sure what that is, but I think I will enjoy it. |
Meh. It's just the Etruscan word for "lettuce". |

So who hasn't got a clock on the dashboard of their car? In most civilised nations it's illegal to use a mobile phone while driving for the same blindingly obvious reasons that it's illegal to drive while under the influence of alcohol, or to exceed the speed limit. Certain other supposedly civilised nations, of course, contain significant more-or-less influential sections of the population who consider such traffic regulations to be an interference in their personal freedom to be complete arseholes. As a consequence the percentage of people who die in traffic accidents is higher in such nations (excellent, say I, less of those fucking arseholes in the world) than those whose populations are (in general) saner and more mature. |
The flaw in this logic is that it's not always the arseholes who die in those accidents. |
People with older cars. People who have replaced the OEM stereo that had a clock with a new one that doesn't. People driving other random cars where the clock's accuracy is unknown (although technically they would have a clock then).
So you are OK with looking at the clock embedded in the car, but then go on to rant about how dangerous operating a mobile phone while driving is purely because someone wants a large clock to be visible. Fail. |
