The "daingert Madelyn" in the last panel is from a CAPTCHA challenge. In case you're not aware, CAPTCHAs used to present squiggly pseudo-words like that for you to decipher. I suppose they still might, but they used to, too.

And the joke is, well, it was always funny when the two words somehow made sense

Edit: And to totally kill the joke, "daingert" kinda looks/sounds like "dangit" in a southern(?) accent if you squint enough

Someone keeps trying to access my MS account

They cracked my randomly generated password - which doesn't surprise me that much, brute force cracker are pretty effective nowadays.

I'm actually surprised that it'd be feasible to use a brute force approach to gain access to an online account. I would expect them to hit some kind of rate-limiting long before they'd find the correct password
