Splitsville, population: two more.

Nick Lachey and Jessica Simpson have officially parted ways. And while many in the tabloid press have seen this coming for some time, I have to admit that I'm at a loss for words.
Honestly, in this day and age, what does it say about the institution of marriage that two people can't join together in a loving bond, hire a camera crew, film the first 2 years of blessed unity, broadcast said footage over basic cable and then proceed to cheat on your spouse for the next year while the press reports all of this while you just smile and nod and say we're perfectly happy, ONLY to have the whole thing crumble under the scrutiny and the weight of this monolith you have constructed in your own image. I mean, if a marriage can't without those TINY tests, how are the rest of us suppose to make it work!
I... I just don't know where to turn anymore. The star system has failed me once again. Where do I turn, Auteur Theory? C'mon. What do you take me for, some Frenchie?
