Annoyingly,some sites have started putting limits and validations on their security question answers...

  Imagine the site complaining that your answer has "too much entropy" to be correct...

  Ran into one where it demanded I choose from a drop-down list, e.g. "What was your first pet" had "dog", "cat", "hamster", "gerbil", etc. I recall the list having a scrollbar, but there was not even enough choices for eight bits worth of entropy. Oh, and they referred to these security questions as "2FA."

    And what if you never had a pet? I love the ones that ask about one's favourite sports team (not everyone likes sports), or first girl (or boy) friend (not everyone has dated) or first car (not everyone has ever owned a car).

      I hated those questions as a kid because I had nothing to answer them with.
