As long as you remember, it is meant to complement security, not make unsafe passwords safer. This is not a rant towards any particular person, just a reminder. 2-factor authentication is a good addition, but it would help if you combined it with a good password that you only use for this list.

I thought the issue was a compromised Gmail account? Even with a terrible password, unless you have the second factor you can't log in and send email etc.
