Webkins Subliminal Messages?
My 7 year old nephew visited this weekend, and wanted to show me Webkins. I have never seen nor heard of this craze, but supposedly it is the hot new toy.
After I helped him log-in, it required a security verification. And below is the undoctored photo of the security phrase we had to type in.
if you'd seen this in 10 or 20 different places, you could think something is up. But you KNOW it's just a random assortment of 5 letters - it could've just as easily come up with YAHWEH... 'cept that's 6 letters...
I don't think it can be that random. Later we logged in and were given a mismatch of numbers and letters. I am no math wizzard but the likelihood of 36 possible letter/number combinations generating a word has to slim, let alone a specific word that you would imagine would be on a "Do not use for sensitivity purposes logorythym" (e.g. shits, fucks, Jesus)
(Oh, and if my probability skills from Finite Math, my only college math/science course are right that's a 60,466,176 to 1 odds)
You are too trusting of soul Don. My guess, it is an inside job.
