04. 7.08 At Least It's More Original That Just "Password"

This morning I was IMing with my web designer friend, Trix. Occasionally we like to swap war stories.

Me: I just got an email from a client, and he wants me to set up his Google Webmaster Tools, and already has an account. So he forwarded me his email and password, and his password is "fuckyoufuckyou" (all lowercase he specifies too).
Trix: Um, was that directed at you or Google?
Me: I'm not sure.
Trix: I have clients email me their passwords all the time, so now I have this huge file of "Why should you remember when Trix can do it for you?" full of passwords, server IPs, etc. I should start telling people I can't handle their accounts unless they are hosted through me. I mean, since they don't know how to ftp a file, why should they be allowed access?
Me: You're such a puppet master.
Trix: Um, I prefer the term opportunist.
Me: Well I prefer the term "social drinker" but no one is going to call me that.
