Even perfectly suited regret isn’t chic. How did I miss that Mad Men is Ayn Rand fan fiction? (It may have to do with not owning a TV.)
You don’t need to know that when a beatnik asks Don Draper how he sleeps at night, since he’s in the advertising business, Don Draper answers, “On a bed made of money.” You don’t need to know that Don Draper is a man moved by an independent moral compass and a passion to sell. You don’t need to remember that “Bert Cooper, one of the founders of the show’s fictional ad agency, Sterling Cooper, recommends… Don Draper read Ayn Rand’s 1,000-plus page tome Atlas Shrugged. ‘You are a productive and reasonable man and in the end, completely self-interested,’ said Cooper by way of explanation.”
All you need to know is how Don Draper gets an apology…
