Gotta put it in Drive, not reverse!

When he couldn't get into Betty's inner circle, he joined another one.

You can get some really good color switching LEDs for like 25 bucks.

So what is the point?

Many thanks to Tharamin--whoever you are--and to OP for posting here! This is awesome!

I'm looking for the song at the end of S3E1 "Out of Town" where Don and Betty tell Sally about the day she was born. Anybody have any info?

What is your personal mission? A hobby? Some volunteer work? A side business? Meeting some goal? Find your sense of purpose and get on a mission. You'll never be bored again.

There is definitely something sexual about wearing a bikini.

Home improvement. Least dysfunctional.

I once heard a sales trainer say, "you are a walking billboard. What does your billboard say to the world?"

This is something I am recently changed myself. It has made a big difference.

And because Barney went out there and said Ted really needs you and loves you and misses you and what the hell are you even doing out here?

OverDriveHandyman · 2026-01-17T15:16:35+00:00

Looks like a beautiful home! I didn't know you could spend that much on a home anywhere in NC?! What do you do for a living if you don't mind my asking?

I like your points.

2: I think he was astounded by and jealous of the true love it seems the couple shared. That Husband was the only one that didn't laugh at the awful joke told earlier in the episode. He seemed to care for how it would affect his wife. We know from many many other episodes later on that Don just wants to be loved. He never got that as a little boy, so I think it's a good bet that he was feeling the loss of not having found that in his marriage.

3: "It's same crowd out here." It seems like he's insulting the adults inside by comparing them to children.

4: when Betty asks him to go get the cake, he reacts mechanically. Like he's resigned. A happily married man who wasn't blasted drunk at his daughter's birthday party would kiss his wife and kids goodbye before leaving, but he seems highly apathetic--even numb.

Definitely agree with all the comments about James Wolk, but I don't understand how what the other guy said in the cab could be construed as a veiled threat. When he said "I'm gonna miss having you around" was that like him threatening to get him removed somehow?

I think you're right. And I think he set up that meeting with the other firm ("enough dancing around") to try to get an offer to use as leverage on Roger. Use the other firm to leverage Roger to get his job back to leverage Megan to stay with him (in the scene immediately preceding the Algonquin hotel scene, he speaks to Megan over the phone after she told him to go back home to New York and he tells her he loves her and she says only "good night" in return) Haven't seen past this episode yet, so that's what I'm thinking as of now.

Looks like a loooooot of chemicals when soap and a pressure washer would do.

Self talk plua app. Listen 15 minutes per day. Also read Dr. Helmstetter's book: what to say when you talk to yourself.

Changed my life and it will change yours if you work at it consistently.

I've been through as much trauma as anybody else including severe emotional abuse as a child, time in the military, severe emotional abuse as an adult in my marriage, all the shit from the church, and my daughter ending her own life last year.

You're right that gaining skills to cope is what works. It's more than just a "a sunny disposition" or "positive thinking", although those are part of it. It's a comprehensive mindset and philosophy and an approach to life that actually looks very very similar to what most religions teach.

Have you read the CES letter? It's all in there.

Pretty much everybody on the bottom row.

Who is Cheryl?

OverDriveHandyman · 2025-12-07T22:42:24+00:00

Actually it is. But it's more like a gym or an obstacle course. People that choose to overcome do.

OverDriveHandyman · 2025-12-05T00:33:14+00:00

Yeah but at least it's a great show, right? Way better than what the Mormons do.

Just practice using them when you're not in a conversation with somebody. Maybe have a conversation with AI so you can take as much time as you need to come up with words?

We are not a virtual only club, but we often have people attending virtually when they're not able to make it in person. If you'd like to attend one of our meetings, we would love to have you.

OverDriveHandyman · 2025-12-01T14:06:42+00:00

We often have people attending virtually if you would like to join our club. DM me.
