Security questions....

[flick]

Apple just made me answer three out of five security questions, for my iTunes account.

I really hope that I never need them: I didn't actually know the answer to more than two of them, and it wouldn't let me put the same answer in for all of them....

I have used the same few questions and valid answers in a lot of places, sometimes dropping back to pretending it's "What is your favorite color?" when there are too many that don't apply. (I can see why American companies think "favorite sports team" and "first car you owned" are generally applicable questions—though for people who really have a favorite sports team, that's not at all secret—but I don't have a favorite sports team and have never owned a car. I also don't have a favorite cartoon character.
