That's what makes it even more infuriating. This is a government site where I have to take mandatory training.

Well there it is. It's a government website. It needs to be secure. Password restrictions have always annoyed me on websites where it's just my shit that going to get fucked. Yes all of these restrictions will make my shit more secure, but if I want my password to be hunter12 then that should be my perogative. But on a government website it makes sense.

Edit: politeness

Edit 2: Jesus fucking Christ I get it. These types of passwords are more susceptible to brute force passwords. I don't need 20 of you motherfuckers to tell me the same damn thing.
