XKCDs correct horse battery staple earns merely 40% ("Warning: Your passwords are weak and your digital life is at risk!")

When in fact it should earn a 0%, because it's in most common password dictionaries now?


I like the password checkers which just say, "This password is completely insecure, because you just gave it to a strange computer on the internet."

Capitalize the first letter of correct and battery. Then you get 100% :)
