Yeah, the word list is from Google Books, which isn't exactly as colloquial as people are with passphrases / passwords.

Ideally v2 gets trained on blog posts / tweets / other colloquial text sources.

I don't see how 3rd and 4th examples aren't superior to green.

"buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo" is a well-known phrase (meaning that buffalo [animals] from Buffalo [place] fool [buffalo as a verb] other buffalo from Buffalo).

"eight six…" are lyrics from a popular song (a.k.a. “Jenny”).
