Papa’s Basement 5-21-12-Mark Zuckerberg Wedding Photos
This episode has nothing to do with Mark Zuckerberg or his mediocre-looking ^_^ wife. I figured it’d be a commonly Googled phrase and figured it couldn’t hurt traffic to ride […]
“The twist is that the [people of Planet] Negron are white.”

No show understands human desire more thoroughly than Mad Men. Last night’s episode, “Christmas Waltz” (click here to purchase via Amazon) was a showcase of wants and needs, all beautifully written, all painfully believable. I won’t get into the details, because I don’t care to do a plot summary and I have some furious, soul-deadening masturbation to return to, but the episode’s dialogue was perfect, from Harry’s dalliance with a Hare Krishna (HARRY: I’m married. LAKSHMI: I’m burning for you. Does your wife burn for you? HARRY: [pauses for a moment, then shoves his tongue down LAKSHMI’s throat]) to Don and Joan meditating upon infidelity as she’s eyed across the bar by a well-dressed man (JOAN: Who do you think [he has] waiting at home? I bet she’s not ugly. The only sin she’s committed is being familiar.)
If you’ve ever wanted, if you’ve ever desired, more than any church, Mad Men will grant you absolution for your trespasses. I’m forever thankful to the show for that.
