Blackberry’s odd list of forbidden passwords includes characters from Winnie the Pooh and more

I go beyond that: 3-4 words and THEN “munged”. . .

[x]

For instance, ALL of the characters found in Winnie the Pooh are prohibited.

Well, "pooh" is definitely scatololgical.

I'm pretty sure that "tigger" may be some kind of ethnic slur, and "christopher robin" probably means something in the gay community.

Maybe Vincent Bugliosi thinks "eeyore" is code for the coming apocalyptic conflict.

And most likely all those Winnie the Pooh names have been copyrighted by Disney by now. So hands off!

That reminds me when I had detention and me and a friend managed to hack the supervisor’s admin password to “tigger”.

We also changed all her sounds and protected them to the “tigger sound”.

I don’t know if she ever found out it was us...

[vis a vis]

I do now... :-)

I have friends who call their kid Tigger, short for “tiny nigga”...

I'm surprised that the name "Jason" didn't make the list. I coached a Little League base ball team in the mid 80s and 7 of 12 players were named "Jason".

I’d renamed the dog so many times he was getting confused.

I renamed my dog "Twice". He wouldn't come if you called him "Once".

[Graybeard58]

I woke early one morning,
The earth lay cool and still
When suddenly a tiny bird
Perched on my window sill.

He sang a song so lovely
So carefree and so gay,
That slowly all my troubles
Began to slip away.

He sang of far off places
Of laughter and of fun,
It seemed his very trilling,
brought up the morning sun.

I stirred beneath the covers
Crept slowly out of bed,
Then gently shut the window
And crushed his f###ing head.

I’m not a morning person.

I suppose that’s better than Niglet, which is, of course short for Nigel...

Tegro ?

"I am the world's Madonna...donna...donna...donna..dey...
I'm needed from Belfast to Bangladesh.
So many grievous wrongs to cure by writing tedious songs
But I know I'll always have you to fall back on.

Pull the Tregroes, Tegroes,
We're with you all the way.
Pull the Tregroes, Tegroes,
We're with you all the way.
Just across the Bay.
Ummmmmmm.... Hmmmm..."

Me And My Goose

Arlo Guthrie

Me and my goose
Me and my pal
We had some very good times
Me and my goose, his name was Al
And he cost only a dime.

Over meadows we'd stray
Playing all day
I missed him at night until dawn
Then one day I found he wasn't around
I wondered where Al could have gone.

I looked everywhere; he just wasn't there
Where could a goose be all day?
I missed my pal
I missed my Al
It's sad that things turned out this way.

Then my mom brought him in!
I remember her grin
Stuffed with his feet pointed straight.

I'll never forget the night that we 'et
Al off of the old yellow plate.

Check and see if you can find any Freepers with these as screen names and cross that with Transcendental Meditation mantras. You come up with one name that will start with the same letter as the name of your first car and what branch of the Illuminati ran the factory where the the rear bumper of the car was made.

I’m glad to see “swordfish” is still legal, though!

[Revolting cat!]

As long as “qwerty123” is legal, we’re in good shape!

[Erasmus]

Hmmm. ******** is what I always use.

[FredZarguna]

So, like most kids, he’s hoping someday he’ll be bigga.
