Mine used to be "mike_is_gay" (my roomate was mike).

I had mine set to freeinternet, but then it had a password on it. I had to reset it so many times I forgot what it's actually called now.

However, the password "wadeisgay!" has remained the same. (Wade is my roommate.) He was pissed when he had a few friends over and they asked him what the wireless password was. He doesn't have any wireless stuff and never knew, so when I told them and it worked they were in tears laughing at him.

Best one I've seen was down in Minneapolis and my phone picked it up... "pleasegodwork"

Good times...

My wifi network is named "Black People" because I know nobody else would use a name like that.

It was also called Giganigga at one time because the wired part of the network is gigabit.

Mine originally was Stay_the_fuck_off, but then my mother came to visit and mentioned something about one of my neighbors having that network name. I quickly changed it to our dog's name and gave her the password.

I have two - one is my last name, and one is last_name_fios

My passwords would tell you that I'm a fan of Mandy Patinkin, The Princess Bride, and long but easy to type passwords.

If my friends ask me to install their router they are stuck with what I give them. My favorite is this girl who lives in south Georgia. Her SSID is "Redneck Lovin".

Mine is "DeepBlueOcean" Because I would rather be living on the Ocean then in this fucking cold weather state.

Then I think to myself that I do have a nice house and a job and a great family so it is all good :D

Here's an idea: Set up "free wifi access" that isn't connected to the Internet but instead redirects all user HTTP requests to the local webserver that hosts shocking images. It can all be self-contained.
