Anyways, when I have to have an extremely long password which I can't remember... I write down the other part, but omit my "standard" string. This way, even if someone finds my password cheat sheet...they still don't have my passwords.
but you're vulnerable if someone get's your "standard" password somehow. Remember there are keyloggers (at least some employers use them) also not every database transmitt nor saves the password encrypted....
I suppose that's possible...but then, NOTHING protects you from a keylogger other than systems which change your password rather rapidly. As it is, I vary my passwords in a very methodical way...such that with the large majority, I don't have to right down my variation....yet without collecting a bunch of these passwords, simply seeing one will not reveal the construction of the others.
