Blurry Hysteria: Doomed CAPTCHAs and Ratty Drug Parties | 407

This week on Blurry Hysteria, we're hitting you with a double dose of bizarre! First up, someone decided CAPTCHA wasn't annoying enough and created one where you play Doom on Nightmare difficulty. Can you rip and tear your way to proving you're not a robot? Spoiler: most of us are doomed.

Then, we head to Houston, where the police evidence lockers have been infiltrated—not by master thieves, but by junkie rats with a taste for confiscated drugs. Who’s the kingpin of the rodent cartel, and do they have a tiny, whiskered Walter White? All that and more this week on Blurry Hysteria!
