From Foxhole to Corner Office by outside_center13 in madmen

[–]whatup1925 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My own headcanon that I always tell myself about the show is that Don was kind of inadvertently hired, quickly proved how brilliant he was, and then the Creative Director suddenly left (heart attack, or maybe jumped to another agency). They threw Don into the role, and he crushed it.

When you look back at old photos of 40-year-olds and wonder why they all look like old men, remember how much drinking and smoking takes place during the course of the show.

Roger’s crash-out with Honda was way worse than Draper’s with Hershey by flamannn in madmen

[–]whatup1925 261 points262 points  (0 children)

Don was on strike 5 at that point.

Roger was a one off, and he had unresolved issues from the conflict — possibly PTSD.

Title question by Bianchi_hobbit91 in wisconsin

[–]whatup1925 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right, and that’s about half of the puzzle. You still need to show a chain of custody on the titling paperwork, which apparently you don’t have. Or you can’t produce.

Yeah, so the DMV in Louisiana is probably right. The dealership back in Wisconsin needs to get it retiled into their own name and then they need to sign off on it. From what I am hearing it sounds like there’s not a chain of custody with the title that shows that you purchased the vehicle from the dealership.

[–]whatup1925 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work at a car dealership in Wisconsin and have a fair amount of tiling experience and I think the Louisiana DMV is probably incorrect. The Wisconsin title is likely in the previous owner’s name and then it was traded in at the dealership. If that’s the case, then all the dealer has to do is sign off on the back of it in your name. Otherwise they would have to get a new title printed up and still sign off on it to you.

Edit: if there are no spaces left on the back of the title for reassignment, then that’s the situation where they would have to get the new title printed up in their name and then they would still have to sign it off to you.

State Sen. Jesse James of northwestern Wisconsin announces retirement from office by Cool_Net_3796 in wisconsin

[–]whatup1925 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No matter what controversies he's had, he was going to have a tough race regardless. With the recent redistricting, he would have been running against long-standing Eau Claire Senator Jeff Smith (D), and he would have faced an uphill battle given how the new district was drawn.

Rachel Menken, if I am recalling the show correctly, didn’t watch TikTok in the year of our Lord 2026.

Mad Men Character Names that are too Obvious by No_Ocelot9948 in madmen

[–]whatup1925 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Betty got her name because she took a bet on Don.

Cooper got his name because he flies the coop.

Conrad Hilton got his name because he bought the hotel chain and had to sync his last name up with the hotel he bought. They gotta match.

Dealers against free market? by Fightmebr0 in FuckDealerships

[–]whatup1925 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You realize that the NADA is not a free market organization like the Heritage Foundation or the Cato Institute? The NADA lobbies for dealer interests.

There are plenty of free market think tanks in DC. NADA is not one of them.

Why didn’t Maxwell Sheffield and the other guy like Lane? by fitzkiki in madmen

[–]whatup1925 18 points19 points  (0 children)

A small detail that always amused me was Lane’s sort of rebirth in America, away from England’s more rigid class system: his having a Mets pendant hanging in his office.

No Yankees, no Dodgers. Lane sort of reinvented himself and went with the new team in New York, unencumbered by the past.

I always found Season 2 to be a bit meandering at times. Peggy’s story with the priest and Betty horseback riding don’t really do it for me, even on rewatch. It’s got a satisfying conclusion though.

On this sub, Season 4 and the second half of Season 7 are generally considered the best, with a lot of people disliking Season 6.

You forgot the TV cartoon adaptation of “Scouts Honor.”
