A joke about passwords has won a competition for the funniest joke at the Edinburgh Fringe.
Stand-up comedian Nick Helm was judged to have the best joke of the festival, beating a number of better-known acts. 10 comedy critics spent two weeks hunting for the best jokes of the Edinburgh Fringe, putting their top 30 shortlist to a public vote.
You’re probably wondering what this joke is by now, right? Here it is..
“I needed a password eight characters long so I picked Snow White and the Seven Dwarves.”
Helm describes himself as “the human car crash of light entertainment”.
If you think you know a better joke about computer security, why not leave it as a comment below? Who knows, maybe you’ll be making your debut at Edinburgh next year.
A highly exclusive Naked Security t-shirt is up for grabs for whatever we decide is the best entry.
