- bionicvskungfu, on 10/12/2007, -0/+59"One, two, three, four, five? That's amazing. I've got the same combination on my luggage. "
- mv10, on 10/12/2007, -2/+60Blink 182? When was this list created..1999?
- jgc7, on 10/12/2007, -11/+50My favorite password is:
' OR '1'='1
It's funny how many people seem to use the exact same password.
... if you don't get the joke, please don't bother to digg this down. - bdub92, on 10/12/2007, -4/+34*****! How did they know my password was password??
- ozMP3, on 10/12/2007, -4/+33I call *****. I don't believe this list is from any kind data, but what they believe the common passwords to be. What did they do, email readers and ask what their passwords are?

Did it work? - LordSkywalker, on 10/12/2007, -6/+31**********
Edit: Woah, cool. You can type your Digg account password in a post and it'll be converted to asterisks! Try it. - coolguy07, on 10/12/2007, -2/+22Actually you would be surprised how common and simple peoples passwords are. I used to work for a web hosting company and I would see many cases of people using their 'first name' or '1234567" as a password.
- Deamond606, on 10/12/2007, -1/+21I've never heard of someone using (first name) as a password? I didn't even think you could use parentheses.

Nice Hackers reference. Now let's hack the Gibson. - redrabbit, on 10/12/2007, -1/+19[King Roland has given in to Dark Helmet's threats, and is telling him the combination to the "air shield"]
Roland: One.
Dark Helmet: One.
Colonel Sandurz: One.
Roland: Two.
Dark Helmet: Two.
Colonel Sandurz: Two.
Roland: Three.
Dark Helmet: Three.
Colonel Sandurz: Three.
Roland: Four.
Dark Helmet: Four.
Colonel Sandurz: Four.
Roland: Five.
Dark Helmet: Five.
Colonel Sandurz: Five.
Dark Helmet: So the combination is one, two, three, four, five? That's the stupidest combination I've ever heard in my life! The kind of thing an idiot would have on his luggage! - insovietrussia, on 10/12/2007, -1/+17C'mon people, it's a bash.org reference! Kids these days.
- venom8599, on 10/12/2007, -0/+15So basically your advice is: "U53 13375P34K"
- roominator, on 10/12/2007, -5/+19Sex, Love, Secret, God
- insovietrussia, on 10/12/2007, -1/+13Yes, but you missed out the smiley face at the end. Also the next sentence leads with "On a more serious note...".
It was a joke. - venom8599, on 10/12/2007, -0/+11That would probably be the 18-20 demographic these days. I think they had more fans when they were bigger a few years ago.
- vsujohn2, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10I commonly use "goodguess" as a password for its sharp irony
- TheReport, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9Thats weird cause at my gmail account at crazydude24@gmail.com my password 298dis9483 is nothing close to any of these passwords at all.... *sits doe eyed and confused*
- rebotfc, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8bastard beat me to it :p anyways: )
President Skroob: One, two, three, four, five?
Colonel Sandurz: Yes.
President Skroob: That's amazing. I got the same combination on my luggage. - ocellnuri, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8Which was quickly followed by: "On a more serious note..."
Context matters. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8ah beaten to the spaceballs ref.
bury away... :( - redrabbit, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6Destroy the planet! And someone change the password to my luggage!
- redrabbit, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7was it your comment?
http://www.themot.org/gallery/d/61535-1/fightu.jpg - kefler, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6yeah great. Because dictionary attacks don't already do those l337 substitutions.
- vemerge, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Most websites? Don't think so. Some might, but most reward you if you can match the contents of two input boxes.
- brownspank, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5As long as there are stupid passwords.
- yellowsnowcone, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Haha! I guess I am safe. They didn't have Hj432kl on the list ....
- tylerjames, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5only a turd ferguson would use a 1337 password...
take a computer security class and learn that people (and algorithms) are now smart enough to guess 1337 password
you've gotta include upper and lower case, numbers, punctuation, and control characters - bigchina, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6how in the hell many times is someone going to post this list?

http://www.clipperz.com/files/clipperz.com/dilbert.jpg - green1152, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Blink182? Must have been surveyed from the early 2000's. Sad.
- dankosaur, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4why didn't you store your passwords hashed?
- saifatlast, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Yes, they would, you're a liar.
- leffunov, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5Easy way to make difficult passwords : replace letters with numbers where possible I1 E3 G6 S5 T7 O0 use phonetic replacements commonly used as shortcuts in aim, 8 for ate. Here's an example: it's pretty easy to remember "plates are stupid" but if your paranoid you can make it into this "pl85 r 5tup1d" trust me nobody is guessing that one. Don't use random numbers or crap like that, use easy phrases you translate into difficult passwords
- anidal, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3' OR '1'='1'; DROP table `users`
- TheGreatTK, on 10/12/2007, -3/+6Wow, way to harsh on people for liking certain music.
Idiot. - cybe, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3The password is: "Ken sent me"
- bbardlbradd, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3That wouldn't work for me... I use "3x†|23m3 |_33†$P3@|< +w0 †|-|0u$4n|)"
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Thanks for that kick-ass insight.
- reyitocazador, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3digg me down
- devians, on 10/12/2007, -3/+5@ jgc7
' OR 1=1; ---
was always my favorite, seems to work better :) - sciencebase, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Passwords for scientists - http://www.sciencetext.com/passwords-for-scientists.html
- wh0r4cl3, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2what about asdf1234?
- UmmoSirius, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2My old roommate & I ran a bbs & we used binary characters (0110001 0100001, if I remember correctly). as our password. I remember once we had a friend over--the sysop of a competing bbs. He pulled up the portion of the WWIV code where passwords were stored and was looking directly at the password, amongst all the other info, and he couldn't spot it.
Later, on a windows 3.0 machine, I used the password "I am the lord thy god, bitch." Not as secure, but a hell of a lot funnier. - bbardlbradd, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3I used password, then password1... I have recently upgraded to a far more secure "wordpass1" since...
Then for ultra secure passwords I use unix commands. - northjersey78, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1All of my passwords are a variation of a random series of characters I memorized long ago.
- reyitocazador, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1FTA:
Looking back at PC's source material, I'm seeing that this list doesn't seem to derive from any sort of survey data, although who in his right mind would tell a poll-taker his password, right? Assuming that the true top 10 is unknowable, let's treat this stab at it as a good reminder that if you are still using sequential numbers or your own name, it's probably time to wise up.
[reply] - drjekelmrhyde, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1this may be a bit silly but my aunt is really religious and every username on any account is always Jesus I laugh everytime she tells me that
- zurp, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Not calling you a liar, but if you've never seen 123456, password, abc123, etc. used as passwords.... *shrug* I see it hundreds of times a week.
- sjbdallas, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1No one using geo_metro then?
