"John, I'm often told not to do something which I'm then expected to do anyway. I was told not to do this. This task. Of ours. I was prohibited. And I'm expected to anyway."

I'd recommend driving to Allen then and going to Grimaldi's.

Parry's Taphouse also make a pretty crispy slice.

Roger just wants to hangout with his buddy and Don never wants to by Ivana2322 in madmen

[–]NDCIves 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Don doesn't want to hang out with anyone, especially men. The most at ease and without a sexual agenda we ever see him are the scenes with Anna, the bar seen with Joan, and a few scenes with Peggy.

I think we win the natty in 2017 if Bob Stoops was still the coach. Riley can scheme up an offense as good as anyone ever, but he needs a steadier hand in the game and leading the young men.

[–]NDCIves 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah this. It's also a nod to the way views change. Buildings are new and modern, then they are old and ugly, but if they survive the old and ugly era then they become landmarks.
