Yeah, it's a little silly if you end up on the phone having to say it to a service rep, but it's better than what's otherwise basically security theater.

I once spent about five minutes explaining my email over the phone — which email has just a handful of letters, but in a weird sequence. Can't imagine having to dictate a random password.

Reminds me of the time when our office got corporate debit cards for everyone, and one dude had his security phrase be eight letters ‘Q’ (or more specifically, a sorta connective letter that can only be at the end of syllables in our language).

The name of my high school crush was "SnorkleBrewersExploringAsphaltBrowniePie" why do you ask?

"Little Snorkly Pie, we called them."

I enjoy singing "oh ricky you're so fine, you're so fine you blow my mind hey ricky [clap clap] hey ricky [clap clap]" at the service rep and i told them that if i don't sing it or clap that i have failed the security challenge.

it's the answer to what was the color of my first car.
