My parents have a joint e-mail account. It gets quite frustrating when you're trying to have a conversation with one of them and the other keeps hijacking it by replying to the last mail I sent, plus I'm never sure if the right parent actually read the mail in question.

Pokrface[/url]":3smatwyj]My wife and I text and IM each other from the same room. It's a really convenient way to share funny gifs.
And we also have each others' PINs and 1Password passwords—it's just convenient. Plus, if one of us is hit by a bus or something terrible, we already can get into the others' accounts.
I'm not sure what the age difference between me and you is Lee, but a lot of my contemporaries think my wife and I are weird for dealing with this kind of thing. Is it that people in their 30s don't want to admit that things like getting hit by buses happens to people that age?
We have our wills written, instructions about funeral preferences, and while we don't know all of each others passwords we both know where to find the list of contact details, account logins etc. It just seems to make sense given that I ride a motorbike and enjoy other pastimes which people might describe as stupid and/or dangerous. That way she won't end up getting chased for my Flickr subscription 2 years after I'm dead.
