And the lemon flowers sweet.

But the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I essentially have a whole secret identity that I use consistently in cases that I don't need to give correct info:

I have a 2nd birthdate (that is a different month, day, and year from my actual birthdate). Different birth location that is close to my actual birth location, but not the real one. But I need to flush out this 2nd identity a bit more and give this person a different first boyfriend, first kiss and a new pet.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yeah, I use a totally made up something for most of my security answers. It started out with mother's maiden name. The first time it came up, they let me phrase the question. So I made it, "Are you going to tell us your mother's maiden name?" And the answer is something along the lines of "nofreakingway" which I use for lots of things.

I also used to give "Fictitious" and "Name" as my first and last names.

It's actually harder to remember my SO's secret answers. "Dude, what was your kindergarten teacher's first pet?"

And then there's my mom's, which are a conglomeration of random letters and numbers with various capitalizations stuck in there for good measure. She uses the first letters of a phrase you'll remember method, which I taught her but don't use. She's awesome.

Our password for the network at the theatre is random capitalizations of "When is lunch? It's at noon."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'm never sure how to spell my mother's maiden name, so often (but not predictably so) I use my maternal grandmother's maiden name. Just confuses things.

I have varying degrees of formality and security of passwords depending on what they give access to, but I don't use fake names for anything other than my extra gmail addresses. And I couldn't tell you what names I used for those.

I memorize random series of characters.

Yes, I know I'm a freak.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I sometimes use the numbers from my bicycle combo padlock...that I had in school...30 years ago.

I am like Drew. I have a set of about six bizarre and semi-random passwords, eight to twelve characters long, that I use under different circumstances. Like, if the site is financial in nature, I use one of the two longest. If the site is fluff, I use one of the two shortest. I also have four different 4 character numerical passwords for things like ATM codes.

Especially the web site passwords, there is no possible way to guess what they are. And I have them committed to memory.

I also have at least two combinations of Drew's memorized. I'm not as crazy as Drew, but I'm in the neighborhood.
