What's up with ebay capcha these day?

My brain is too tired at the end of the day to pass this.

Yeah my ISP has a password thing they make you set up that's similar, except THEY mess it up somehow. Set a password up, forgot all about it. Years later when on the phone discussing something they said 'you have a password, it's a football (soccer) team'. Confidently said my fav team and they said 'no, that's not right'. YOU WHAT?

Reset it after a palaver. To the same thing I'd thought it always had been. Forgot all about it. Nowadays they don't let their agents even see this password or something, so you have to go via a robot that takes 2 letters from it. No matter what it asks for, I always get them wrong. I can count through the letters or write it down to check I've done it right, and still it's wrong somehow... :/
