'til no-fault-divorce do us part

You may have seen an Austar commercial reappear on TV recently:

The commercial depicts a wedding ceremony with the celebrant asking the groom “Do
you Richard, take Alicia to be your lawfully wedded wife, knowing you have 60 days to
reconsider?” The celebrant then asks the bride “Do you Alicia, take Richard to be your lawfully wedded husband, knowing you can leave at any time?”
The voiceover:
 “If you have trouble committing, try Austar for 60 days.”



 I have this to say, in response to the commercial, and today's attitude to marriage:

"Geeee-aaaargh-a-za-frig-shi-rrraaargh!!!"

Thanks for listening. Comments welcome.

Didn't know you spoke in tongues mate!

Haha. I certainly was filled with spirit, though not necessarily the Holy one.

I don't have a problem with the add, it is a bit satirical of no fault divorce. I think it makes fun of the notion rather than promoting it. Is it too callous?
