IT Joke (not everybody will get it)

[bhaexpress]

Made me laugh anyway.

Bloke phones up to have his password reset, 'What should I use for the new one ?' he asks.

'Eight characters' is the reply.

'Okay, Snow White and the Dwarfs be okay ?' he replies.

Okay I didn't get it the first time.

You really didn't get that the first time?

There are 10 types of person in this world. Those who understand binary and those who don't.

Perhaps it's because the number of dwarfs was not clear...

.. and what about the Prince ?

What if the IT policy dictates a mix of letters and numbers ?

why do geeks confuse halloween with christmas?












because oct(31) = dec(25)

Didn't a variation of that win 'joke of the festival' at Edinburgh this year? Bloke said his dad was asked for an eight character password and then moaned that it wouldn't accept 'Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs'.

I think nowadays most people understand that the word 'character' has different meanings.

You only have to look at some of the posts on here to realise that.

As an IT'er I quite like that one !

There's not enough characters in Information Technology these days.

 

[TWOCHOICEStom]

Who wouldn't get that?

 

[magoo]

Do you actually have to use all of the characters names or can you just say Snow White & the Seven Dwarves?

That's a variation on an old joke that I knew, but this is far better, although it only really works written down.

You need a number in that.

In fact it doesn't work at all if its not written down

SnowWhite&the7Dwarves would probably be accepted by corporate policy.
