When you are too fast in interacting with SO, a captcha request appears, together with a photo of two gentlemen dressed as robots.

Who are they ?

    I just searched like the first 20 pages of "two robots" :) Nothing.

    I think Jermaine is the Pusher and Bret is the Shover.

    you know you can CLICK THE IMAGE to have all be revealed, right? Not like it's some massively hidden secret. Commented Jul 31, 2009 at 7:08

    @Jeff: When I am asked for a captcha, my robotic nature forces me to obey the order of solving it. I don't investigate further. Commented Jul 31, 2009 at 11:54

It's Jemaine and Bret from Flight of the Conchords. Specifically, the episode called Sally. Here's the video.

  • @John, wouldn't that involve them not being famous to begin with? I mean they have a TV show... Commented Jul 31, 2009 at 4:50

    @Jeff: I hope you've learned a little something about UI usability from this: people clearly don't know that images are links unless they have a blue border. Commented Jul 31, 2009 at 16:12

    Feature request: Make it obvious that robot picture is an HTML link.

    I guess that if life was a D&D campaign, this would be a 20 in bardic lore. Commented Jul 31, 2009 at 1:27

    @Ian: Actually, they're Jemaine and Bret. No 'r'. Commented Jul 31, 2009 at 12:44
