You know the thing when you have purchased something online and you have to pass through the additional security checks. This should of course be distinctly different from your other 20,000 passwords, pin numbers, favourite film / colour / 1st school / mothers maiden name etc.
So you get to the screen and it asks you to randomly choose the 2nd, 4th and 7th characters, or the 1st, 3rd and 6th etc .
You can guarantee that every time though I will have to work this out using my fingers to ensure that the correct sequence is entered. The finger abacus is never used except in such situations but I feel such a plum sitting in front of a puter screen counting on my little pinkies redface:

Look on the bright side, being from Somerset you have the advantage of being able to count up to 12 using that method. whistle:

When I get asked this over the phone I invariably can't remember. I usually tell them to ask me another and end up with the old Mother's maiden name standby.
The online ones are a nightmare; the number of mini post-it notes just to my right is approaching double figures noooo:

EEEZ SEEMPLES!
Take name of first love, add her birthday in numbers and letters. That is my password for bank accounts etc and for Pin Numbers I always use her DOB and nobody but she and I could ever know them.
-
I always use the 'create new password' option...
Write down some random shite, pick out first, fifth and ninth or whatever.
Job done. Simples. happy088

I had an argument with one of those "Confirm your date of birth" twats yesterday eveilgrin:

Some-one asked when my birthday was. I said 28 March. He said "what year?" I said "Every year, stupid"

drumroll:

He is learning whistle:
-
Oh how I love the conversations that go
Them: "Can you confirm your Date of Birth/Telephone Number etc?"
I have a stock response
"Yes I can, tell me what you think it is and I'll confirm whether your information is correct" eveilgrin:
'THEY' never get it. point:
I then patiently and sarcastically explain the difference between "Confirming" and "Telling".
It's a small victory against the ignorant but makes me feel better every time cloud9:
