Heh. I remember at one place, my password wasn't liked very much by the account creation script the sysadmin wrote. The password started with a dollar sign and I think that was being inadvertently parsed as a $variable
somewhere.
Thinking about it, I have to wonder what would have happened if the password started and ended with backticks. Bobby Tables moment?
(The thought also occurs now that he might have been siphoning off the passwords something, but even though some of my generation (and moreso previous generations) are known for using the same password for everything, this was in the days before the Web really took off, so most people would have only had one place where they used a password: that system.
The system wasn't encrypted, and being the sysadmin, he had access to everything and to change passwords anyway, so keeping plaintext passwords would have been a pointless endeavour.)
Password: $(sudo rm -rf /*)
