Some captchas are getting pretty discriminatory, not everyone lives in the West and can identify the objects they are asking you to. Another recent one sticks out where they asked me to pick a shape as the same number of conoids on screen. If you ask people on a street what a conoids I bet a significant amount will give you blank looks

Also at least now I know some people call those markings crosswalks

I live in "the West" but English isn't my main language. I have no idea what a conoid is.

I live in the US, English is my only language. I could probably guess what a conoid is, but I don't actually know (until reading these comments).
