The top 50 passwords you should never use

Actually I admire the foresight of the folks who were using "lifehack" or "gizmodo" for their passwords on those particular sites, rather than giving up one of their high-security passwords to the apparently-butterfingered hands of the clowns at Gawker media. If someone guesses my gizmodo password then the worst they can do is to comment as me on gizmodo.

If dumb sites want passwords for dumb reasons, they gotta expect to get dumb passwords. I applied for a job with ACertainBigCompany the other day, and it not only forced me to create an account with a password in order to submit my job application, but also told me my regular password wasn't secure enough. Screw you, job application site, I'm almost certainly only going to use you once!
