    If this is real it’s the saddest way to create a fake profile. They probably left the watermark in.

    Sounds like she’s trying to steal your identity. Specifically your last name because that’s wife material!

      Ok I agree that the title falls flat but I appreciate that the red circle draws the eye away from the first text from him, so that it’s funnier when it’s read. A rare example of red circle as comedy, if you will.

    For real though, security questions suck. Either someone who knows you has the answers which is insecure. Or you forget them. I just put my password in for all the security questions. My mother’s maiden name was definetly “ahsh555[51´,5%8”.

      The first time I saw security questions start becoming a thing in the late 90s, I’d been online for about 5 years and had gone from a kid with decent tech skills to a skeptical teenager with decent tech skills. When I started seeing all these questions to answer while signing up for an account it set off the warning bells, so however many accounts I set up at the time have completely unguessable recovery answers.

      Although one time I think I did guess my forgotten answer to “who was you first kiss?” as “your mom told me not to tell”.

        lol, I do similar, I stole from the old spy movies. “What is your mothers maiden name? A: The crow flies at midnight” Total nonsensical answers to the questions

      It’s so so so stupid. And if you’re not married and don’t have a pet, I guess you can go fuck yourself.

      I had one that was something like “what did you wish your nickname was when you were 10?”

        For me, I use stable related answers that are not quite accurate… So for example “first pet’s name”. I’ve never had a pet, and so I instead use the name of my favorite childhood stuffed animal.

      Doesn’t that defeat the purpose of the questions though, if you were to forget your password? I answer with nonsense too, just keep it in my password manager or write it down somewhere.

      Why did people downvote this person? No, really, why? Like, this isn’t the worst example of this I’ve seen by a long shot, but I guess I’m just not in the mood for this crap right now.

      1. Can you even tell if the implication was that they didn’t know? Or was it maybe instead that they were being snarky?
      2. If they genuinely didn’t know, are they bad for it? I mean, you’re downvoting them because you dislike their statement, right? It’s not over irrelevancy. But you’re born knowing literally nothing, so what is “common sense”, and at what age does it happen? Is it a crime to be unsure of something? And think about it— do you really want to be the kind of person who is a dick to random people just for lacking a bit of sureness/clarity/awareness?

      Ugh, social media is a great way for people to discover that they share ideas and tastes with other people, and therefore validate their own humanity; but it’s also a great way for them to get bullied by dumb mobs who don’t know them, into insecurity and mental health issues.

      Eff off, internet.
