    Pass phrases. “Where did you go to school?” “The gratuitous fax machine yellows mayonnaise tablets”. Still long, easy to copy & paste, easy to say on the phone.

      This is why I use passphrases instead of password. Not worth worrying about phonetic ease though, as I’ve never had to use them since using a password manager. The key is to always set/update passwords by copying FROM the password manager… Same reason you should restore a cryptocurrency wallet from the seed immediately after creation — to ensure your backup works and the info has been stored accurately.
