Campbell’s new chicken noodle soup commercial depicts the plight of modern relationships, and it’s not pretty. The ad’s description reads:

On her way out the door, a woman asks her boyfriend if he still isn’t feeling well. He confirms that, no, he is not and states that his mom used to make him Campbell’s Chicken Noodle Soup whenever he was sick. The girlfriend turns around as if she is going to make him some soup but quickly returns, throws a phone at him and tells him to call his mom. Now, he’s free to make the soup himself.

Charming. Glenn Reynolds at Instapundit asks, “Gee, I wonder why men aren’t excited about getting married these days?”
