Once again, today’s AC comic is based closely on a true-life experience. My wife and I were discussing our desire to walk into the sunset together, holding hands, and living, long fulfilling lives as man and wife.
However, the conversation tilted into the territory where we began facing our own mortality and what steps we would take if, heaven forbid, one of us passed before the other.
In this technological age that we live in, the discussion quickly went from how to make the other aware of the location of important documents such as wills, stock portfolios, and other fiduciary papers to what should we do regarding the other person’s social networking information.
I don’t know my wife’s passwords and usernames to any of her bank or business accounts. She doesn’t know the webmaster password to my website or anything either. If I died tomorrow, that may be the end of ADDANAC CITY altogether.
She wouldn’t know how to get into my WordPress system to upload any future AC comics. My legacy would perish with me.
So we contemplated making a Master List of sorts that would include all of our passwords for Gmail, Hotmail, Yahoo, Twitter, Facebook, and even MySpace (heck, ya never know when that place’ll get back to jumping again).
We decided that this vital information would only be used in the event that one of us died and the other needed to keep the “fire burning”.
I mean, I would really hate for my last words on Facebook to be “Sex is like air; it’s not important unless you aren’t getting any.”
We came to agreement indeed, but I know my wife very well. There…is…no…way…in…hell that my lovely bride would not prematurely sift thru my entire social networking history just to spy on me.
She’d do it the very minute I thought our Master List was locked in a safety deposit box somewhere. And my wife is notorious for making every “Happy Birthday” or “Like” or “Nice pic” sound flirty or lascivious. I’d be divorced long before death would do us part.
So, Dear Reader, all of that is what helped to craft the strip you’re reading today. My life is just inspiration for making you laugh.








And that's why you leave that in your will. (First!)
That's what I say. You keep that list right under the porn stash.
Wait….BlackPlanet? XD XD XD
Harvey was umm….going thru a phase, perhaps? :$
My wife pretty much runs the show, her biggest decision when I die is where to put the urn.
Well, I hope she can write and draw, because even after you're gone I still expect fifty more years of Vinnie and company.
I feel the same way about your comic, George!
Jessica Jiggly Juggs! I love it!
George if you are worried about how your readers will know that you are no longer on this world, you can always create a scheduled obituary post for a month out and just keep puching it back every month. Then if you arren't around to push it back… :p
I've always wanted to make one of those hilarious video wills where I get to have the last laugh on everyone. That would be funny, as well as morbidly eerie.
That's a great idea Bill.
Ha! I guess that's an 'unlike' for Mrs. A?
It's definitely not one of her favorites, that's for sure.
My wife found some interesting messages on Facebook once. Her response was "you're lucky I know your too unaware to know this girl is hitting on you". And you know what? She was right.
It's amazing that most of us gents have not the slightest clue when a female is coming on to us. My wife can recognize the "symptoms" as soon as Hello is uttered by a gal. They have to bust me in the head with a love cinder block before I get a clue.
My husband is quite the lovable, charming and witty gent. Who wouldn't fall for him, quickly? I see it all too clearly. Sorry ladies. We're in this 'til the wheels fall off!
Harrvey also should make a pact with friends to destroy his porn stash upon his death… unless they want it for themselves!
Or at least get someone to erase his browser history before anyone finds out what his internet proclivities are.
Would I trust my girlfriend with my passwords and on-line accounts? Ummm…sure. Just have to delete my own membership with that "sistahs with massive asses" club!
Why can't they name that club something less-chauvinistic? Like Grandma's Good Boy Recipe Club or something?
Your wife is your facebook friend. She already knows everything you post
She doesn't read any of 'em unless I tag her. I kid her now that I can talk trash about her on my comic blog since her last visit here was probably Labor Day 2011.
I was actually on here, yesterday and the day before! :p
So if your personality suddenly changes, we'll know it's really your wife and not you.
Yep. If stuff starts getting funny around here, then you know it's not me.
Ha Ha!!!
I will have to teach Michelle how to draw my characters, use GIMP & how to post comics.
With a wife like Simone why would Harv be interested in other women
