-Your password should not contain “real” words (and definitely not more than one real word in immediate proximity, like “whitecat” or “angrybird”), and should contain capital letters, numbers and symbols. The best passwords of all look like total nonsense

I think this is a bad advice. You only need long password that are not feasible for a brute force attack and not trivial (personal data). If you have a password you can't remember you are going to write it somewhere and that can be a security issue
