Actually, I love Vincent Kartheiser's lifestyle: vegetarianism + material minimalism + not having children as a 'green choice', I think it's all pretty special.

I know, how hard is it to vacuum & wash your own underthings. Rich people.

I liked it when @avclub-6ca57d2774f04ac8acf3d2b10f0338f4:disqus called him a 'garbage beast with no charm or intelligence to compensate' last season, which is still how we refer to him in my household.

I replaced 'whore' with 'prostitute' & I didn't tie Peggy into it, but yeah I saw it similarly in terms of theme.

hmm I guess it would if my consciousness was a confused fog of murky darkness but like you said, to each their own.

And Gene is basically just furniture.

He wasn't hating on her, he was extending sympathy to the doctor by saying 'yes my wife also doesn't make much money in our household'.

yes the character is different from the actor although physically they are the same person

that's true

Yeah, abortion-shaming the woman whose husband you're fucking has put Sylvia on my kill list.

It's also pretty funny how Sylvia yearns for some sort of ill-defined Frenchness in her affair w/ Don, when Megan is French-Canadian.

Nah, this housekeeper was fucking up. Carla's firing was absolutely unwarranted & horrible & made me hate Betty forever.

Cause Americans are only capable of respecting aggression & dominating behaviour & Megan's mild-mannered people-pleasing Canadian politeness & occasional ambivalence is irritating to you people, because subconsciously you read it as weakness.

I guess there's a emotional callousness to Don & Pete's behaviour that also basically has no point, whereas the guys in The Sopranos didn't deceive the people they were killing for just money.

Don is so fundamentally insecure (which his occasional aggression is also a symptom of) it's hard to watch sometimes.

I know, that's how I feel too, which is why I was surprised.

I think the marital affairs theme is getting a little boring, but my boyfriend sent me a message saying "i'm more horrified by don and pete than i ever was by silvio, paulie, christopher, etc…"— so i guess it's still making an impact on someone.

I find Vincent Kartheiser pretty attractive. Of course the women who marry Pete Campbell issue threats & restraining orders against him, so there's that.

i looked into my crystal ball and ^^^ that's exactly the kind of thing people are going to say

so it begins … how much longer until the show consists of just lena dunham & wayne brady?
