Use something like "prufofjustis" and 1337ify it.

There is no "would of", "should of" or "could of".
There is "would've", "should've" and "could've".

But if a password generator can generate it surely a hacker can!

I generally use nonsense nonwords or purposely mispelled words. They probably are not secure.

That's why I stopped that and started using normal words + some numbers + symbol on my 60-day expiring work password.
GameFAQs used to allow you up to 20 characters in the password. Now it's only 16. I still remember my 20-char random letters/numbers password from back then.

My password for work is currently 17 characters, all random lower case, upper case, symbol and digit.

I just keep adding a character when it's about to expire.

I mean there is some logic to using nonsense words if you're worried about someone at your desk guessing your password but a short but "complicated" password does jack shit against a bot with nothing but brute force and time

The bigger problem is password requirements that are so complicated that people just sticky the password using a post-it note to their monitor.
