Years ago for my university student account, you were allowed to provide the question. I figured I would never need to use it, so I set the question to "Dicks?". I was very immature and thought that was funny.

A few years later after the semester break I forgot my password. I had to email IT to reset it, and they replied "Please provide the answer to your security question: Dicks?". And I had to reply "Yes no problem, the answer is Dicks". It was an awkward email exchange, but in my defence I had immediately remembered the answer so it served its purpose.



Was expecting answer to be something like: Moby&Tracy.
