The longest password ever

Password policies suck balls. We are allowed to rotate ours every three years, and we have to change the damn thing every 6 freakin weeks. Studies also show such policies aren't effective...

So I start with my password, and then append to it...every 6 freakin weeks, for 3 effing years, and then I can start over.

Pretty much the same where I work. You can't use the same password if it's been used the last 12 times, it has to vary by at least 3 characters from your previous 12, and we must use different passwords for each of the many programs we use daily. Ours also changes every 6 weeks or so.

All this to access dull information that would be of little - if any - use to anyone who isn't an employee.
