I was gonna say that most likely his wife bought him that suit, but seeing as it is a rather nice suit there is no way this incompetent dingus would have picked it.
but then i realised that no woman would ever go out with him under any circumstances, so it is obviously his poor old mom who bought him his duds.
God bless that woman, she must have the patience of a saint.
As such, i am petitioning the fictional 1950s-60s vatican to have her canonized.

Maybe that was in in the 60s.
Maybe dudes who buttoned their top button and left the bottom one unbuttoned where the fuckfaces, and I bet people who went all out and button all TWO buttons where NERDS.

Also, I've caught the odd episode of Mad Men here and there and it's pretty entertaining, but the fact that this is a real debate held between tv watching adults is just silly.
*goes back to posting long, ponderous posts about MLP:FiM*
The whole "bottom button left unbuttoned" ball was set rolling by Edward VII, so it would have applied in the 60's as well.
IN FACT suit coats are almost always designed so that they drape properly with the bottom button undone and buttoning the bottom one will throw it off, plus it emphasizes bulk around your middle.
SO DON'T DO IT
OR I WILL PRETEND TO BE OUTRAGED AT YOU OVER THE INTERBUTTS
if you want a nice little guide on how to button up here is a good article that covers most button arrangements you can find nowadays. (*yeah i know that the site URL looks kinda MRA-ish and maybe they are i have not looked at anything else on there so IDK, but that article is very nice and it covers most of the stuff i have said already*)

Maybe there's a subplot where he's secretly fighting the even more secret 60s fashion police, a plot I haven't picked up on because of all the clever and subtle nuances of the show.

I remember his wife was my favorite character in the one season I watched.
Apparently she gets turned into a cartoonish villain later though.

Friday commented that his wife started as a rather nice, if perhaps naive character who slowly turns bitter because of how the main dude there doesn't exactly treat her nicely and then turns evil because of...reasons that may or may not have to do with poor writing...
I have heard some very good things about Mad Men from people that I trust, and what little I have seen of it was quite well-acted and interesting. Which obviously does not preclude it from having obnoxious fans who think that acting and dressing like a (cheap knockoff of a) '60s ad man is somehow the Platonic ideal of manliness.
What is up with all this Code Geass, Death Note, and Cowboy Bebop talk? I thought most people in the know agreed that Twin Peaks was the best High-Quality Anime Drama of all time.
As a rule, I think it’s ridiculous to judge someone for liking or disliking an artwork. But I have to be a hypocrite here: If, after watching "End of Evangelion” you still consider yourself a fan of Neon Genesis Evangelion, I’m judging you. Not quietly. Loudly. I’m in your face with a megaphone, yelling “WHAT IS YOUR DEAL? CAN’T YOU SEE HOW AWFUL THIS IS?” You may be thinking, “Why are you yelling into a megaphone? Isn’t that redundant?” But you love a show that, for the better part of 26 episodes and one movie, has used dream sequences and robot moms to call your attention to things you’re currently looking at with your eyes. So you’ll forgive me for thinking redundancy is your thing, won’t you?

I wouldn't say End of Eva is "bad", but it's certainly a little too intelligent for it's own good.
It's like a guy at a party who knows a lot about subjects that everyone finds interesting, but he's trying too hard to establish that not only is he knowledgeable, that he's the smartest guy in the room.
So yeah, it's kind of off-putting.
But I still consider the End of Eva more "Episode 25" and 25 and 26 the true ending, so the series as a whole still leaves a warm feeling in my tummy.

I think that guy is missing his own point there, as well as misunderstanding the entire point of that particular narrative. I can understand the desire to dismiss the self-righteous fans of the show who act as if it be the be-all end-all of philosophical exegesis in animation—they be trippin', yo—butanyone who still likes the show at all? Come on. Dude. Really.

I am with you on this.

also there was a Code Lyoko forum I used to browse and there was this creepy dude named Honeyscrew who was basically stalking the site owner, that was scarring.
I used to like Code Lyoko a lot. Dunno how I'd feel about it now, but I like to think it's still better than most of what was on Cartoon Network at the time.
I want to watch Evangelion but I don't want the commitment that comes with knowing I'll have to defend it.

Speaking of anime with ugly designs, did anyone else watch Alexander Senki, AKA CN's Reign: The Conqueror? It's the story of Alexander the Great, if Alexander and half the people in his life looked like drug-abusing models.
I sometimes fear that this is the only place that sees it like that, though. These writers and cast seem pretty confident of their success, and they never mention issues with haters. There are places in the web where Evangelionis worshipped, and they're not all fansites.
It's like if Heapers Hangout was the mall from Dawn of the Dead, and it's zombies everywhere outside.

I don't know how facetious you are being, but there are a lot of people who loathe Neon Genesis Evangelion while still respecting it as an artistic statement, a few people who just plain despise it, and plenty of people who just don't care for it, don't care about it, don't mind it, or simply prefer other shows while not being especially strident either way.
This is getting dangerously close to making a big deal about other people making a big deal out of something dumb, which is in and of itself making a big deal about something dumb.
