There are a couple of commercials for Barilla pasta that I find alarming.
You may have seen them.
An attractive blonde is on the phone inviting friends over for dinner at seven, but she no sooner hangs up than she starts cooking the pasta. This obviously makes no sense. Spaghetti takes about eleven minutes to cook. What was she going to do with it? Let it sit in the pot for two hours?
It turns into a clumpy mess, but fortunately the guy who lives across the alley way is watching her (!).
He leaves a box of Barilla pasta outside her door, knocks on the door or rings the bell (I don't remember). She looks for someone, but finding no one, she eventually cooks it and serves it to her guests.
In the meantime, this creepy guy is still watching her through the open window.
Does this alarm no one except me?
This guy could just as easily be raping and killing her as giving her anonymous cooking tips. And she doesn't seem to be in the slightest bit troubled by his unorthodox approach.
I expect her to show up as a victim on Law and Order: Special Victims Unit.

You mean that's NOT the way you're supposed to cook spaghetti? I wish someone would tell my lovely wife.
Then again, she certainly would make a special victim as far as I'm concerned.
