a girl's best friend?


Good news, single ladies: If the deluge of TV commercials for engagement rings has made you gag -- repeatedly -- you're completely normal.

This piece cynically discusses the holiday season's ads for diamonds, taking critical aim at their underlying message that happiness exists through shiny objects alone.

I hate the holiday jewelry commercials, especially the ones that center on a proposal. I guess the fact that I spend 99 percent of my TV-watching time accompanied solely by my dog probably doesn't help.

Which holiday ad campaign do you hate most?
