Breaking CAPTCHA with automated humans

Is it juts me, or has CAPTCHA gotten considerably more difficult to read lately? It takes me at least 3-4 reloads before I get something I can both read and type with the keyboard in front of me.

Sometimes there is no need to reload. If a CAPTCHA has multiple words, it is likely a reCAPTCHA and therefore at least one of the words will always be easily readable for any normal human. Any half-decent approximation for the other word should be accepted.

Are you a robot?

A crazy cab driver called me an unfeeling robot one day, so I suppose it's possible.
