Did As Kid & Passwords

What did you do as a kid that nobody talks about? Dangerous Dave talks about a Buzzfeed list of things like blowing bubbles in your milk. Plus, are you stressed out by logins and passwords? A poll says most people are.

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
This, It's Deeper in the den with Dangerous Day. Well.
BuzzFeed has a lot of things on their lists. Some
things are silly and some are kind of interesting. They
have a list right now things basically every single person
did in their childhood but never ever really talks about.
It's not something that was illegal or something embarrassing. It's

(00:20):
just something we don't talk about. It's fascinating. Some of
the things are pretty totally random and low key. Some
of the items from the list blowing into a straw
while drinking milk, creating milk bubbles? Did you ever do that? Oh? Yeah,
for sure, when learning how to swim, the irrational fear
of sharks in the deep end of the pool, not
me drawing the sun in the top corner piece of
the paper leaving the chewing gum would stay in your

(00:42):
stomach for seven years. That's a classic one. And that
was our parents' fault for that one, because we wouldn't
think that unless we were told that. Playing with a
foam ball with a bite or chunk taken out of it,
Pinching your finger or lips with a hairclip, how about
with a clothes pin, rolling the straps on your backpack,
as tight as humanly possible, being your eracer with your
pencil to leave graphite holes in it, freaking out if

(01:03):
you swallow a seed from an apple or a watermelon,
watching your rain drop, try to win a race down
a window, having a bodyboard slip out from underneath you, you know,
a kickboard while swimming, Hitching the upper lip where in
the nose kind of gets that upper cut to the face.
I remember doing this. I think I still do this.
Pretending to smoke one. It's cold outside and you can
see your breath trying to force two magnets together in

(01:25):
the opposite poles. And it never did this one, but
this one makes a list. It's kind of random, sitting
in church looking up at the massive light fixtures and
trying to figure out who they'd kill if they fell.
All right, not the reason I went to church, but okay,
I might do that next time. Deeper in the two
are you overwhelmed by too many passwords and log ins?
Most people don't go one day without an all out

(01:48):
war on a log in screen. Maybe you can't remember
which email you used, or which password, or the two
factor stuff that we use like here at work, and
the vague captures are even tougher. According to a survey,
sixty two percent of people are overwhelmed with access screens
and are worried about managing too many passwords, accounts, and logins.
Eighty five percent think it's worth it to some degree.

(02:08):
That's because we're more secure, but sixty four percent feel
confident in their cybersecurity knowledge. Over half admit to sharing
passwords with others. Forty percent admit to reusing passwords. I
do that. Twenty four percent write down their passwords, and
nineteen percent keep them in a file on their computer
or notesapp. Most common shared passwords for streaming service. Most

(02:28):
commonly shared passwords shopping accounts, personal emails, social media, work
and school emails, and productivity platforms. Fifteen percent share their
bank account passwords and pins. I'm guessing that's with family members.
And only twelve percent of people use a secure password manager,
which experts in cybersecurity agencies recommend it. Most browsers have

(02:50):
basic features like built in, but many of the premium
services cost money, especially for ones that offer secure ways
to share with your partner or family members. Get frustrated,
Are you sure my password isn't one? Two, three, four, five,
six exclamation point to it again for another episode of
