Just Silly Stuff
I have eleventy jillion passwords in my life. At least it feels like it.
Last week I locked myself out of one of my work related web sites. The protocol is very similar on most passwords. You may mark the little box to request they Email you a new one.
My Email never came!
Eventually, I called the toll free number for technical assistance and reached a man in a country on the other side of the globe.
He took my name and business information. When he began to ask me the "Personal Question" I had written for just this scenario he burst into giggles.
It took about 30 seconds for me to realize that he was still trying to finish asking me the question.
That's when I felt a warm flush over my face as I recalled the problems on this web site the previous month.
Every day the log-in page redirected me to the individual profile. For three weeks straight I had to set up new personal information before proceeding. It was time consuming and frustrating.
One day my patience wore down and in the personal question selection I wrote "Why do you ask me these stupid questions?"
Then I answered the question: "Because you are being a Jerk #x*."
As coincidences go, I had no more problems accessing the site and forgot about my impertinent response. Until Thursday, of course.
Although my new friend Amir could not compose himself enough to verify my personal question, he did reset my password with apparent glee.
Boy, howdy..... did I get in there fast and change my profile.
Then this week I drew a total blank (Honest, I rarely forget!) on a password that was assigned to me for a completely unrelated website.
I clicked the little box for a new password and almost immediately heard the corresponding "ba-ding" announcing a message in my Outlook.
I opened the Email to find this unforgettable password: FISHP00
Amir would have approved.

I make it simple for my simple mind, I use the same password for everything.

That's funny about Amir!!Yeah, he's probably LHBO telling all his friends about you!! :)
I only have 3 passwords for EVERYTHING, that way I only have to ever have 3 shots at guessing which one for which site or bookshop etc :)
Still laffing at fishpoo lol
x
this was VERY good....you are clever :)
FISHPOO is the BEST
Love your question! I can see why you cracked him up. :)
Fishpoo?!
Thank you for your prayers/good wishes, Vicki & family and myself have taken great comfort in the warmth you have offered.
"Half a snap" ... I didn't have any idea how little sense that made until one of my commenters said: "Half a snap! Glad it didn't do any damage." And I thought she was referring to how much time it took to get it out!
Think jeans. Snap them. It's the receiving half of a snap, I believe but I'm just not certain. It sure was BIG!
Smart of him to put something up there he could breathe through!
I published the wrong post for my weekly winnders and couldn't understand the comments of the people until I checked ! It was the post I wrote in case I don't know what to show, lol ! Now I put it back in draft ! That's my old age !!
But Fishpoo takes some beating!
That is too funny!
