re: Required password changes

I agree that it's a minor annoyance, especially if you're someone who doesn't stay automatically logged in on all their devices (you're an abject retard if you do), but I understand why.
Although, there are some instances where it seems completely unnecessary to have a password at all. Has anyone tried applying to jobs lately? Every organization makes you register an account with their job portal...like what is someone gonna do, hack my account and apply to jobs for me?
At LSU they changed our passwords automatically every 180 days on some things and it was always a random word followed by a random 2 digit number and then another random word, sounded like a football play. For example:
carrot52table
doghouse27napkin
poison43truck
fence38mustard
I've used some minor variation of the first password they gave me my first year of law school 9 years ago. The little strength bar always says my password is very strong, so I got that going for me I guess.

all passwords are stupid. Put the stupid finger print back on laptops. we already have them on our phones. Anytime a password is needed, it should simply be my fingerprint.
I understand poor people will have a problem with that, so my alternate solution is that all passwords should have the same requirements, standardize them. I should be able to use BigTitLover69! for all passwords, but you'll have some that will say, nope can't be more than 12 characters, or nope can't use special characters, then you have some that say nope has to be more than 10 characters, or you have to have a special character, or you can't use repeating letters and/or numbers, which is why it's not BigBoobLover00!
WHy can't we just get a standard for what a password should be, and everybody abide by it? Since everyone has different requirements, i have several different passwords i use with stupid little iterations in them. Makes no sense for everyone to have different requirements, requiring people to save their passwords in other places to remember them. It defeats the purpose of passwords when you have to do that.
