Eden Dranger, known on Twitter as @Eden_Eats, has recently taken the internet by storm with a tweet that humorously highlights the absurd complexity of setting an HBO password compared to the simplicity of an ATM PIN. Posted at 10:35 PM on June 28, 2024, the tweet has garnered 1.8 million views, 4.4 thousand reposts, 64 quotes, 99 thousand likes, and 1.1 thousand bookmarks, making it a viral sensation.

The tweet reads:

"HBO login: password must contain at least 8 characters, a number, an emoji, your college roommate's maiden name, and a hieroglyph.

ATM: just any 4 numbers."

This witty comparison has resonated with thousands of users, sparking a wave of comments and discussions. One commenter pointed out, "#1 you need to have the CARD in your hand. if you are not holding the actual physical card, the PIN # gets you nowhere. in contrast, HBO is just 'username + password' which is literally weaker because there is no other component besides just password."

Another user, reminiscing about pop culture, commented, "#8 Man, Foamy. Now there's a character I haven't heard about in a really long time," referring to the iconic cartoon character.

The tweet also inspired discussions on various unrelated topics. One user humorously added, "#12 Nah mate. You take that first bite and the hot dog part just snaps off the patty and falls in the grass. Rest of the burger that relied on the hot dog for bracing slowly turns into a sloppy joe. Pretty for Instagram, impractical for the family bbq."

The engagement statistics below the tweet, showing thousands of likes, reposts, and bookmarks, reflect its widespread appeal and relatability. Eden Dranger's tweet about the complexities of modern digital security versus the simplicity of traditional ATM PINs is a perfect example of how humor can bring people together and spark widespread online conversations.

#31 But stupid f***wads decided to elect idiots like Greene and Boebert preventing the President from passing helpful legislation.

#36 Look I'll just throw it out there. Jimmy Carter only served one term, so he could run again. If we have to vote for an old white guy we might as well commit.

#5 this is the monthly truth living in my city. All the little spots have closed and now I can’t get a burger for less than $18 anywhere nearby.

#5 Honestly, this exact thing takes me out of the show pretty frequently, like, I don't want white tablecloths and deconstructed haute cuisine, just give me a chopped beef that blows my brain out my skull quick and cheap.
