Love wars

During last night's first airing of The Daily Show there was a commercial break that featured back-to-back ads for dating websites eHarmony and match.com (with no intervening spots).

I started to wonder:  As a married person am I supposed to be watching?  Are the advertisers trying to tell me something about into which demographic I should now fall?

But then the next commercial (for a car rental agency) had loud-mouthed former tennis star John McEnroe espousing both his famous utterance and my feelings on the prior two ads:  "You cannot be serious!"

This is why one should DVR everything and fast-forward through commercials.
