im going over my highlights in tender is the night by f scott fitzgerald and it makes me crazy how mad men is essentially a spiritual adaptation of it. the main characters even share a name. i’m sick.

I can only discuss mad men with other almost 30 yrs old tumblrinas on here who got me thru pandemic. like no one else will get it. no one. we are outside the cave and everyone else is still watching the shadows on the wall.

you know what? here’s a blank piece of paper why don’t you turn that into glo-coat. are you out of your mind? you gave me twenty ideas and i picked out one of them that was a kernel that became that commercial. so you remember? i do. it was something about a cowboy congratulations. no it was something about a kid locked in a closet because his mother was making him wait for the floor to dry which IS BASICALLY the whole commercial. it’s a kernel. which YOU CHANGED JUST ENOUGH so that it was yours. i changed it into a commercial. what are we going to shoot him in the dark in a CLOSET? that’s the way it works there are no credits on commercials. BUT YOU GOT THE CLIO! it’s YOUR JOB. i give you money you give me ideas. and YOU NEVER say thank YOU. THATS WHAT THE MONEY IS FOR! YOU’RE YOUNG YOU WILL GET YOUR RECOGNITION and honestly it is absolutely ridiculous to be two years into your career and counting your ideas. EVERYTHING to you is an OPPORTUNITY and you should be THANKING ME every morning when you wake up along with JESUS for giving you ANOTHER DAY.

u guys know how ppl post about breaking bad like 'yo mista white can i have 5 dollars for a spongebob popsicle' we need to do the same for mad men, pete campbell is already like one life-altering event away from being like 'don may i please have a quarter for an asbestos gumball'

I’m sad 😔 boys show shaft

[dondraperkin]

please remember making the list was a collaborative effort don't come for me if your fave is on here somehow go read the notes of the other post and fight with them

also I decided not to include greg because I felt like everyone would feel like they had to vote for him. I thought of the "most fucking annoying" title after soliciting ideas and I think we all agree his behavior is a degree beyond that
