Joe: I am a 73 year-old retired mechanic in Forsberg, Nebraska. My 3 biggest problems are Iran's uranium enrichment capability, the casting of Helen in Christopher Nolan's "Odyssey," and the ability of Tennesseeans to check out "Roots" from a library

YES! I will add a puke machine operator to your MMY avatar if you ask for it
Now that we rediscovered #MadMen through its vomit machine, maybe you want to BRING BACK THE MAD MEN YOURSELF #AVATARS, but update it for the go-go 2020s?
I designed the art for #MadMenYourself and I can up-res your little guy for as little as $50 using THE ORIGINAL PEOPLE PARTS from the app.

No one before Sam successfully raised a child, which is why the human species went extinct in Mesopotamia. Seriously, the best way to read this is that countless billions of humans did just fine but Sam is not as competent and self-reliant as them, and that's what AI wants us to be: dependent.

one of the types of people i will never “get” is the type that goes to the local bar of a football team and loudly roots for the opposing team
I watched a Dolphins dickhead get kicked out of a Browns bar in NYC once
it was great
I wish someone would kick this dickhead outta this Vikings bar

Rich was the sole reason I ended up working for #MadMen.
He played Harry Crane who almost jumped out a window after Don Draper's Carousel speech at the end of Season 1 but his character was too good, so he was saved by a rewrite. (BTS TRIVIA!)
I loved drawing him looking goofy every season.
