Fun password trick:
Pick an adjective, a color, an animal, and a cuss word.
Now pick 2 numbers and a special character, or 2 special characters and a number.
Separate your 4 words with your other 3 items and, boom! 12+ character password that you already remember.
Bonus points: lose the numbers and characters and you have a hilarious insult.
I make up a sentence and then I write it out. Why limit yourself to 12 characters?
Like the actual phrase
Why limit yourself to 12 characters?
Is a very strong password, easy to remember, fast to type and has the added benefit of not containing any adjectives.
Length and complexity are the two most valuable things in a password.
“ThisIsMySuperCoolPasswordNoOneWillEverGuess#2!0” is an insanely good password. “G<7p8*a94;B” is pretty good too but howtf are you gonna type that every time
Do you work for the FBI?

It’s a nice idea, but random passwords are quite a bit safer than any manually created password. We use password generators for that. Some of them also support passwords that can be pronounced. In some way, anyway, because the “words” make no sense.
Though, i’m still waiting for someone who would accept a passphrase.
