why is this so funny?

I am watching the news this morning, and I am saddened by a comment made by the weather girl. I usually ignore the comments, but this time I couldn't.

She was complaining about the cold weather, and said," if I was married to Oklahoma I would divorce it today because I don't like the cold!"...HOW STUPID! What bothers me most is that all the anchors started laughing and agreeing with her. Why is divorce a funny subject? We live in a country where 50% of marriages end in divorce, guess what..that us not something to be proud of!

It's obvious that the same disregard of the seriousness of this word, and the seriousness of the vows you take when you get married have been lost on us somewhere.

Divorce is not a joke, or something that should be treated lightly. And as a child of divorced parents, I can say that it is never "simple" or "easy" or "painless". Someone always loses! Please start winning, and make your marriages work, they can't flourish without you being "all in"!

You talk, you argue, you laugh, you hug and kiss, and you start all over again. It's never "perfect" but its YOURS! Cherish it, work for it, it can't survive without you!
