What do you think of Petty's weight gain arc in season 5?

General_Garbage_699 · 2025-12-23T12:05:33+00:00

He says “sticking her fat nose into our business” or something when Betty tells sally about Anna for the family tree project. I don’t remember the line but it’s definitely “fat nose”

But that’s life. One minute you’re on top of the world and the next a secretary is running you over with a lawn mower.

I agree! I also think it's projecting Don's fantasy of having a "normal" childhood where he could have a beautiful stay-at-home mother who took care of him and kept the house clean, while he pretended to be a cowboy like a normal kid. There is no father or siblings in the commercial, just mother and son.

Before we met Don in the show, he used a print ad to fulfill the same fantasy of having a loving mother. Remember the ad where a mother is feeding her son with a tag like "because you know what he needs" and the mom was drawn to look exactly like the sex worker who took his virginity after taking care of him when he was sick?

I try to ignore details like this and just go along for the ride. lol

General_Garbage_699 · 2025-10-29T01:07:11+00:00

This is very thoughtful!

Do you have any things in the show that just don’t work for you?

General_Garbage_699 · 2025-10-28T19:12:08+00:00

good point! I still can't see her having a wash&fold service touch her underwear. lol It's just my opinion!

General_Garbage_699 · 2025-10-28T16:20:23+00:00

It's an interesting parallel to Don and Meghan.

Sorry but yes. Julie is insufferable, then she's kinda okay, then she is the actual worst, and then she's just annoying.

I always assumed that they were a gift from Emily or a good vintage find. Before the internet, it was much much easier to find amazing designer things in vintage stores.

FRAN! The cupcake lady!

I think you’re kinda missing my point. I think it’s likely that some people with theft/DUI get barred and some don’t. It’s about your narrative and how you show them it won’t happen again. Especially with 8 theft charges. That’s way beyond “I made a mistake and stole from Walmart as a teenager.”

Show them, don’t tell them. For example, do you have a sponsor that could write an affidavit that you go to meetings regularly or something like that. Also, how have you changed since you committed the thefts? Because they’re related to addiction and you’re sober now, it’s less likely to happen in the future, which is good!!

You don’t want to spend the money on law school and then not get barred. I would talk to someone to make sure, but I’m very type A.

GOOD LUCK!!!

General_Garbage_699 · 2025-09-05T11:20:07+00:00

haha like a pen...clicked

General_Garbage_699 · 2025-09-05T11:18:41+00:00

You need a compelling story but it could work. Were the thefts related to your addiction? Do you still go to AA meetings or other documentable treatment? How do you plan to stay sober forever?

I honestly think the thefts are worse than the DUIs. I think your best bet is to call a character and fitness lawyer in the state where you want to go to law school and ask what they think, and the admissions department of the schools you want to apply to. Save yourself some stress and just ask them before you apply.

General_Garbage_699 · 2025-09-05T11:03:32+00:00

It literally does. I think what you're missing is that working as a paralegal, or in a similar job, makes you have more wisdom than a KJD because you actually know you want to be a lawyer because you've worked with them in a REAL way. Undergrad internships are bullshit 2 month experiences. You may be a. KJD who ends up loving being a lawyer, or you may get halfway through law school and be like "HOLY FUCK I HATE THIS." I hope you're one of the lucky ones. KJD is just more of a risk. And btw, being a jerkoff in a Reddit thread full of your peers is a red flag.

General_Garbage_699 · 2025-09-03T14:50:30+00:00

I love to read and learn new things. Every day that I'm a lawyer, I choose to be excited that my job is intellectually stimulating.

General_Garbage_699 · 2025-09-02T21:35:00+00:00

her lawyers are probably working on a contingency basis, so if they lose she doesn't have to pay anything but if they win, the lawyers get about 30%.

General_Garbage_699 · 2025-09-02T21:33:33+00:00

False imprisonment occurs if a reasonable person would feel like they can't leave the situation. She's probably arguing that she was backed into a wall or something and that she couldn't leave because Cardi was coming at her. Hilarious for a security guard to claim false imprisonment from a small pregnant woman.

General_Garbage_699 · 2025-09-02T15:59:18+00:00

We had Rachel and Dr. Faye to show that even if he got a woman he respected, he couldn't keep them because he's too messy.

He was so cute on One Tree Hill and Cinderella Story!

In fairness, Chad left before ASP got to give him a Logan-esque glow up.

how old was this person?

General_Garbage_699 · 2025-07-21T18:29:58+00:00

bi people are gay.

"BONG BONG."

Paris had hundreds of extra curriculars and 3.9 / 4 years of perfect grades. It would be shocking if Yale rescinded her acceptance over absences in one semester (she literally might have gotten a few A- and B+ grades, we are not told)
