I don't know my AF password. I haven't known it for a long time. Whenever I accidentally log out I have to get a new password emailed to me. Then I always copypasta it in to sign in and then I always forget to remember it.

This has some advantages. No one is ever going to "figure out" what our password is except by brute force.

I'd go nuts without one. I have literally hundreds of passwords to remember for work.

I keep a book for mine as I try to rotate the 20+ passwords I use

**Jackalope** · March 30, 2016 at 5:30 am

I used to keep them in an Excel sheet, but it just got too unwieldy. I could keep track of 20 that way, but not hundreds.

Haha, I don't know any of my passwords either, they're all 12+ characters of random gibberish. The passphrase that unlocks my password vault, yeah I know that one - and only that one.

That's a good way to do it!

If you're not gonna remember them, may as well make them all random.

I got that one. I lost the password. Deadpan

But seriously, I had to format my hard drive and reinstall the OS, and thought I had all my passwords saved in a document. Apparently I was wrong about ALL of them.

Me too. I have a document on my hard drive that lists them all. The document is called "Passwords.docx". I know, I am a cyber security role model. Worship me!
