now i feel lame for just sending polite email to the kid at school who saved his password on a school computer. from his own account, natch. next time i have permission from his mom to change his email password. i’ll have to see if he uses the same password on his youtube account.
Awesome! You guys were so great, and nice too…I would have gone straight for the dick jokes.
you sir just made my day!
So good, it hurts.
OMG that is so awesome! *falls over laughing*
That is scary funny!
Your prank has served as a valuable PSA for my preschooler. After watching the vid with me, she went back to playing, then spontaneously advised “Mom, don’t share your password with anyone, that’s not good.”
So awesome! I need meaner friends!
That was awesome. And actually quite kind. I mean you guys really could have done anything!
Love it!
Careful, Mr. Wheaton, you might get added to someone’s List. 😉
As awesome as the XKCD password instructions.

This. A million times this. (Great performance, Mr Wheaton! The chest-pounding was epic.)
This was the kindest, most gentle prank in history.
WANT. Will be be getting this on bandcamp?
Nice.
Recently got ye olde “group email gave my email address to those who shouldn’t have it” attack. Wish my version of online bullshit had produced such lovely results. Thanks to all for making me smile today. I needed it.
