The Matter of Security Became a Matter of Inconvenience

You KNOW how it is when you try to access your accounts from online, and, oopsy, all of a sudden, you’re, drawing a BLANK on those GOD DAMN passwords?  And, you’d typed in the wrong ones, then, the website sends you off, into a flying FRENZY of security questions?  And, if you get one of them wrong, then, you’d be, locked OUT?

But HEY, I KNOW that I’m the one, accessing my GOD damn account here, and, if I wasn’t out of town, I’d come down to the land office myself to set it straight, but, I’m currently, “indisposable” right now, which makes it, completely impossible, for me, to GO to you, unless I find me one of those, wormhole things.

and here’s that “error” message…

So, why is it, that there’s this need, for too much security?  Are we all afraid, of getting our identity stolen, that someone else, other than ourselves may apply for a ZILLION credit cards in our names and, max all those out, running our separate credits to the ground?  Or, is there, some other reason, for this, frenzy of fear?

The matter of security became, a matter of INCONVENIENCE, imagine how you’re at the airport, booked your tickets, and, you needed to, reconfirm something, via logging in to an account, but, OMG, you’d drawn, a huge BLANK on your password when you set up your accounts, and, as the clock tick-tocks away, the time of your departure is getting, closer, closer, closer until, DING, time’s UP, in 3-2-1, LIFT-OFF, and, you’re still, STUCK, in the airport, trying, to explain to the people working at the stations that hey, I AM who I say I am, I just put down my password wrong, and just so happens, I’d forgotten which security question I chose for my account, as well as the answers I’d put down for the questions, when I was told, to set up these god DAMN security questions.

And, why do we need that many security questions anyways?  Are we so afraid, of getting our identity stolen, and having that bad credit for a decade???
