I wonder how many 1000s of times correcthorsebatterystaple appears on leaked password lists now...

Probably almost as many times as 'password'

I suspect that the people who do not use decent passwords are likely to miss that comic though

I've usually used the root and branch approach to password generation, so pick a relatively long base, and then a short modifier based on the site in question.

If I suspect a site doesn't encrypt it's passwords, such as many forums, then they get a throw away password, on the basis that I can live with someone hijacking my account.
