Your wife's glasses disappeared at panel #4...

(Thanks for the catch. It's been fixed! Scott)

[WLP]

Clearly those must have been the best vows ever written.

[Holly]

No, not a costume. I'm making a stuffed animal of Snake Ape. I have the skillz.

[Liz]

: ) Thanks for the laugh!

[Soul of Wit]

I just assumed that the wife's glasses popped off as a defense mechanism to protect her sanity. As for the vows, why didn't I think of that? That would have come in handy so many times.

[Rebekah]

Please post "How to Write Your Own Wedding Vows." I really want to see what went into yours ...

[ZeagleFiend]

Surely a Snake Ape should in fact be a Snape?

[George]

"How to write your own wedding vows", now THAT would be a good one too. Keep up the hilarity.

[Dane]

No, not even a stuffed animal. I'm genetically hybridizing snakes and apes. I have the MAD skillz. Emphasis definitely on the mad. MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA!!!!!!!

[snowyowl]

The first panel is part of a conspiracy to prove that I'm paranoid.

[Steven M.]

Ha! I love when you write a comic that is both funny and a break through the fourth wall. I really enjoy it. I also wouldn't mind having Snake Ape fighting someone like Omnipresent Man.

[ray]

I bought your app just so I could add "How to turn an enemy into a friend" to my favorites.

[Mary]

If any man is ever foolish madly in love enough to marry me, I must also put "...and you'll accept me even though I'm weird" right in the vows.
Because that is an excellent idea.

[navarro]

i'd like to read those vows. they sound more entertaining than the ones my wife and i read.

[C.S.Strowbridge]

Holly, if you make a stuffed animal, I want to buy one. Assuming you can get permission from Scott.

[Lee Gray]

This is more like "How to defend your insanity"...

[Kris L]

I love that he wrote this into his wedding vows!

[Yes, I am Tubby]

Missy's glasses look like an afterthought in panel #4

[sford]

Written into your vows - a perfect finish for a good comic. Can I go back and revise mine?

[CBear]

This is classic... perhaps leading to another strip in "How to create your wedding vows"?

[Verdian]

"Do you, The Wife, take Scott to be your lawfully wedded husband, even though he's really weird?"
"I do...?"

[Innominate]

In sickness and in - oh btw I'm a bit weird - health...

[Jason]

Being weird is a healthy part of every complete relationship. It's like the saying, "If you can't spot the sucker in 30 minutes, you're the sucker." But in this case it, "If you can't tell if your parter is flipping odd within an month, you better hope you're odd, or else you'll spend many nights playing charades with your cats."

Which is in no way weird.
Just boring and sad.

[Owen]

Personally, I find the best way to defend my sanity is with a fake looking two-handed over-the-head judo chop!

[Scott Meyer]

Thanks for asking, but I already did a comic about writing your own vows.
