To Love, Honor, and Annoy

Noah and Ruth discuss whether or not it's his job to annoy her.
To love, honor, and annoy… and then sleep on the sofa a few days.

 

Noah is an expert in the fine art of wife annoyance… but whether he considers it more of a duty or a privilege is anyone’s guess.

Comic description

In case of broken image links or accessibility issues with today’s cartoon, here’s the gist of today’s cartoon:

Ruth is smiling and tells Noah, “It was so sweet of you to bring me flowers at work… but I could have done without you singing that song that you know annoys me.” Noah smiles as he slathers his bagel with strawberry jam and protests, “But that’s my job as your husband.” Ruth insists, “No, it’s not.”

Undaunted, Noah replies, “Yes, it is. It says so right in the vow: I, Noah, do take this woman, Ruth, to be my lawfully wedded wife, to love, honor, and annoy ’til death us do part.” Ruth rolls her eyes and says, “I don’t remember any such vow.” Noah, chewing a bite of bagel, explains, “Well, obviously, I kept the best part to myself.”
