But if you find yourself sickly fascinated by what one can do with a photograph of a perfectly adorable, normal child, you should click through to this baby shot. Ack! Since when do infants wear mascara? My favorite part of this one (where "favorite part" is defined as "horrifying use of Photoshop") is the "enhancement" that says "Drool removed from mouth." I mean, come on. You already blended the baby's skin, added lashes, boosted her flesh tones to "peachy hues," and gently faded her dark circles "while natural eye creases are preserved for a natural finish." In other words, you've taken away her dignity. Can't you at least let her keep her drool?
As are the anti-Semitism, racism, and homophobia. But it's set in 1960.
Yeah, it's clear one of the copywriters is gay and in the closet. I was born in '61 but I do still remember much of that culture growing up.
And some think that Draper is actually Jewish -- well there was that'

That cracked my ass up. When they were
talking about "death wish" and he said, "As if anyone would live their lives one way and really think something else!"

Also a little overdone. Good grief. But I give the show slack. One of Bob's improv acquaintances moved out to LA to do the show-- he plays the married copywriter.

Well, no wonder! I mean, sure, the baby on the left is totally adorable and twinkly and all, but you can totally tell that she's human. I bet she blurps up a feed every now and then and occasionally smells and her poor parents are having to potty train her and everything. She's a gross little stinky carbon-based life form. Who wouldn't prefer the plasticine perfection on the right?
In my defense, I'm in a bit of a "boys are weird and I do. not. get. them. at. all." place.
The baby on the right gets her brows waxed.
So
many babies neglect that.
And some think that Draper is actually Jewish
That would make sense. Everybody's hiding something. I want to get his military backstory. Something horrific, no doubt. Guadalcanal, maybe. U.S.S. Indianpolis? Liberate the death camps?

Which one? The pipe smoker? Or Draper?
