I am less than persuaded. Honestly, even the general exchange from {{Horsefeathers}} only barely qualifies as this trope- the point of the gag isn\\\'t \\\"the password is easy to guess\\\"- it\\\'s the ludicrous verbal slapstick of the MarxBrothers we all know and love. This main reason the trope has this name is because it\\\'s heavily referenced as a classic password title- it has little to do directly with the trope, which is about \\\'\\\'guessing\\\'\\\' passwords.
The MarxBrothers image may be \\\"more interesting\\\", but that\\\'s only because it\\\'s a VisualPun that has nothing to do with the trope. I\\\'m puzzled that someone can not see the joke in the {{Archer}} image- you all do realize that this trope is about characters using easily guessed passwords like \\\"Guest\\\", \\\"Password\\\", or \\\"123456789\\\", right? I mean, just the fact that we can see the words he\\\'s typing onscreen and not asterisks is proof that the image is using the trope. Cripes, it\\\'s even a [[IncrediblyLamePun pun]]! That\\\'s, like a million tv tropes funny points!
On a related note, we need to work on the definition of JustAFaceAndACaption, since people keep interpreting it literally. In the meantime, I\\\'ve changed the picture back to the {{Archer}} image. Further discussion of this issue should take place in the [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/conversations.php?topic=images image fixin\\\']] forum, where a coherent consensus is more likely to be reached.

Honestly, even the general exchange from {{Horsefeathers}} only barely qualifies as this trope- the point of the gag isn\\\'t \\\"the password is easy to guess\\\"- it\\\'s the ludicrous verbal slapstick of the MarxBrothers we all know and love. This trope title could just as easily be ThePasswordIsAlwaysGuest or ThePasswordIsAlwaysPassword- strictly speaking those make more sense. The main reason the title of this hasn\\\'t changed is because what specific word is used really isn\\\'t all that important.
