The worst is when they use security questions that have answers that change like "what is the first name of your best friend?"

I still can't get back into my very first e-mail account. How the hell do I know who I loved most in sixth grade? I got a different crush every monday, and was convinced we were made for each other.

No, the worst is when they require your answer to be at least four characters long, and your friend's name is Bob, or Tom, or Sam, etc...
