Lawyers Say Don’t Lie to Yourself, Get Divorced

Trendhunter points us to a law firm ad that reads, “Life’s short. Get a divorce.” The words are sandwiched between two yummy slabs of flesh that convey in no uncertain terms what awaits beyond the marital bed.

The ad comes courtesy of Chicago attorney Corri Fetman, who angelically admonishes that you “Be honest with yourself and with your spouse.”

Politically-correct statement aside, we can’t fault an attorney for cutting to the chase. How long can we play the Puritan and pretend we don’t have an astronomical divorce rate? If we were lawyers we too would be snapping fingers at hesitant divorcees-to-be.
