Passive Aggressive Passwords: what it is & sites like it

Passive Aggressive Passwords has one text box. You type in a password, and the PaP Machine replies with a blunt, sarcastic verdict on your choice. It reads like a coworker who has strong opinions about your security habits and a limited tolerance for your creativity.

The site describes itself as a side project in minimal design by Tim Holman and Tobias van Schneider, and the look matches: clean, quiet and a little smug. It is short and sarcastic, and good for a quick laugh.

You may be tempted to type your real password into it. Do not. Treat the box as a toy, and use something made up, since there is no reason to give any password to a joke site, however friendly it looks. We have no information on how the page handles what you type, so use sample text only. That caution aside, it takes about thirty seconds, and it is a nice entry in the tradition of websites that exist to be rude to you.

Tips for getting the most out of it

Never type a real password; use made-up ones.
Try a few different styles of password for different replies.
Share the funniest answer with a friend.
