I hate captchas that have something like 12 screens of "pick the object".
The worst are when the picture is not that clear/well defined. When you can't quite tell what it is, or "I still see a tiny corner of the car in this square. Does that count?" Only to select it and then be told you failed.

I was under contract to have my driveway repoured one March. Contractor had it formed up and the rebar was in place. Now step is scheduling a concrete truck for delivery. All week the weather was nice, no breezes. Finally day comes for my pour. I leave for work and notice my neighbor has decided to rake the leaves from Fall and piles are sitting (unbagged for Christ sake) along the edge of my driveway. Oh, he ran out of time and couldn’t bag them until after work today. Today’s weather is forecasting 30 mph wind gusts, beginning this afternoon. I go to work and was able to get at 1pm for lunch, so naturally I went home to see the work. Driving up I see the crew has left. I can tell the driveway has been poured and finished. I park in street and come closer to see that the wet concrete is covered in my f*cking neighbors leaves that he’ll be coming home today to bag. That the concrete crew left before dry and then the leaves appeared, was all the motivation I needed to get the contractor back over BEFORE he expects to be paid. So foreman comes back with crew from lunch and has his crew pick the leaves out and can I come and look to see if ok. I saw small Jurassic Park imprints all over the driveway surface, and he wants to know if I will sign off. No I shout! and had him continue to screed the surface. In the end the surface came out normal looking. No biggie, but avoidable catastrophes drive me insane.
