The Dinette Set by Julie Larson for September 22, 2020

A conjunction would be an odd password…

but I guess “an2d” or “if1” is better than his current one…

“dale”.

Burl knows better than to use his name…

His password is “1234”.

Found the ¢ sign.

Can’t find any sign of sense in our two heroes.

¢onjun¢Tion1…that should work.

Conjuncti2on Junct1on, what’s your func2tion?

This is gonna drive him back to his laptop at home. You know, the one that says Etch-a-Sketch.

That is one old Apple PC behind Burl…!

Found it!

No matter how easy you make it, the website won’t allow it because it’s not a secure password. Plus you’ll be changing the password every three to six months.

you need two characters Mr. Shemp…how about Moe and Larry?

For Burl, his password should be 1cent.

One of my sites makes me change the password every six months. It has to be at least 8 characters, with a capital letter, number and special character. It can;’ be one you’ve used before. Then what do they say? “Don’t write it down!”

I’ve told this story before, but here’s the TLDR version: My father-in-law was trying to set a password, and it wanted a special character. He thought he needed a new keyboard, because his didn’t have special characters.
