I don't understand why so many couples seem to consider sharing passwords to be an actual step in the relationship. It's a security hazard at best, at worst it'll be a security breech.

Akin to giving up the key to one's diary.

Don't be snarky.
Baurus: Our job is to get the Emperor out of situations like this. Though I'll admit, things aren't going exactly to plan.

Casandra: At the moment, the deadliest weapon at my disposal is a goblin's head on a stick. I'd be worried if this was the plan.

Yes, but when you break up you're probably not going to have to get that lock changed and make sure that your previous significant other has enough information to force their way into your other accounts.

True.

In fact i would be more inclined to steal something from someone who broke up with me.

It is literally the worst place to put your password. in the hands of someone who doesn't like you.

Why the hell would someone give THEIR EX THE PASSWORD TO THEIR FB!?

You likely use it as a master password, so I recommend changing ALL of your passes on stuff before SRS BSNS goes down.
it is a mystery

Considering the fact that he already said he changed his password, I would assume he took the proper security measures already and doesn't need you to lecture him. Also, making assumptions about someones habits is very rude.

Well, my exam results come out in nine hours. I'm not going to sleep tonight, so I might go back to watching Stargate.

I bet Teal'c never had to do A Levels. I mean, he has to carry a Goa'uld in his stomach for like, forever. But at least he didn't have to do physics, or maths.

What the hell am I talking about.
