Mad Men

I don’t know what other show I am pleasantly haunted by as consistently as this one. The other day I saw an incredible bit where someone tried clowning on the show’s writing and then if you went to their profile, you’d be informed that you were reading the ramblings of an ex-speech writer for Kamala Harris. Maybe that person’s bio and scrawlings were actually sincere but in my head it was the perfect bit.

I’ve watched Mad Men twice. The second watch-through culminated with me finishing the finale on my 26th birthday, which I’ve since determined held no importance numerologically but it felt like there was some gravity to it in the moment. I’m 27 now, already itching for another go at those mad men.
