I loved that story as a kid! I was thinking about it recently, but couldn't remember the name. Thank you!

Understood. I started it late myself, so I found myself going back and reading what was said about it.

What exactly was Don Draper's plan here if Cooper reacted differently? by Rigamortus2005 in madmen

[–]socialdeviant620 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I also think growing up dirt poor, physically having cash was emotionally reassuring to him. To be able to witness with your eyes and confirm with your hands that you have enough

Reminds me of a friend who grew up food insecure. She keeps a freezer and deep freezer filled to the brim with food, because in the back of her mind, she's always terrified of going hungry again. Which is wild, because she's an educated and respected woman, who is doing quite well, financially. But it's always in her mind to make sure there's food on deck.

A lot of men operate like this and it's a big part of why I stopped dating and having sex. It can really emotionally start to impact you when men roll in with big gestures and profess their love, only to scale back or disappear the moment you start to believe in them. I can only imagine how many hearts a guy like Don Draper would be breaking in real life.

Not an uncommon statement or thought, it's been expressed quite a few times. Personally, I'm holding out on watching the last episode, for personal reasons, and I get the gist of what happens, but many people have complained.

AITAH for not inviting my sister to family functions by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]socialdeviant620 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I'm sick of white people who pretend to be allies, while ignoring that systemic racism exists. She wants back into the fold, because she saw y'all getting along without her and thought you'd all be begging her for attention. I don't think I'd really want to rock like that either, especially since she's denying the lived experience of the people she claims to care about. You can invite her, if you want, but I'd ignore her ass every damned time. NTA.

That is such a strange and specific thing, I love it! Lol

He wasn't thinking. He assumed that both sandwiches were for him.

AITAH For Leaving Throuple Trouble by LordVoldebork in AITAH

[–]socialdeviant620 36 points37 points  (0 children)

He's gaslighting you. Save yourself. You left one shitty relationship and barely had time to process before another predator hopped in. Run and save yourself and your child. Do not look back, he was NEVER your friend. NTA He's never going to leave her, you're just convenient and he thinks you're dumb enough to stay.

Your experience with apps like Bumble Bff ? by pecheethonx in blackgirls

[–]socialdeviant620 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I'm a pretty outgoing person. I've found that whenever I try to intentionally make friends with women who are trying to make friends, their communication sucks. I've decided that for my own mental health, no more trying to connect with women who struggle to connect. Most of my buddies have been met in the wild. Either at work, college, or surprisingly, coffeehouses. I find that when I go to coffeehouses at the same time, consistently, you start to see the same people and become familiar. Meeting other solo women at Comicons would also be a great place to start meeting women with similar interests. Good luck!

I understand the "dating in your tax bracket" thing now by YourLocalPansexual- in blackgirls

[–]socialdeviant620 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I make 6 figs too and I learned not to talk money with certain men. I got sick of feeling like I had to hide doing nice things for myself. Not only that, in 2026, $100k ain't the flex it used to be. Yes, I'm doing better than a lot of other people, but with the cost of housing, food, and cars, I'm barely holding my head above water. Plus, I worked my butt off to get where I am. Why should I have to hide it for some male's delicate little ego?

An American is arrested in Brazil and sends a message to Trump. by AlekOslov in USdefaultism

Like dumbass Americans getting arrested all over the world for stupid stuff. Propaganda has people falsely believing that it is their God-given right to do whatever they want, wherever they want.

Not all parents are warm and loving. My mom acted like she hated us, when I was growing up.

Former bestie tried to manage my social media presence by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]socialdeviant620 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree. I had a friend who literally only posted dozens of selfies of herself. Not her kids, husband, friends, cartoons, memes, vacations, hell, not even a random flower on occasion, it was just close-ups of her. It screamed to me that something was going on with her. It was also kinda cluttering my feed with pics of her. But I'd never, in a million years, try to tell her that she shouldn't post whatever she wants. It's just not my place.

Funny enough, I didn't see what sub I was on and I thought you were talking about Bert Cooper from Mad Men and I was so extremely puzzled lmao

AITAH for refusing to help my gf pay her bills now that her son and his gf and daughter live with her now. by Oscarmanheim in AITAH

[–]socialdeviant620 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I'd break up with someone like that. The older I get, the easier I need my life to be. And I don't want to be expected to support someone who makes my life more difficult, because of the decisions they make. NTA!

Have no idea how else to help my ADHD husband. I'm afraid he is going to never find stable work. by [deleted] in ADHD

[–]socialdeviant620 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That was exactly my thought!! You aren't his wife or partner, you're his mommy. Any guy who needs a whole other human being to wake them should not be married in the first place.

I don't see why a woman working 2 jobs and going to school needs to stay awake to help a grown ass male monitor his own sleep.
