Mad Men Rec: Driving Stick

You need to have seen S6 for this story to work, but I had to rec this. This is how Pete Campbell see the world. His point of view is sullen and unimpressed and well-aware of his own importance and worldliness -- and the importance of good pajamas for travelling -- and as much as he's an sulky, overgrown toddler, I weirdly like Pete too. (It helps that he's respectful to Joan. Being good to Joan gets you big brownie points. But I digress.)

The point was that I enjoyed the story. I even liked Bob, who is so pleasing and pleasant that he doesn't seem quite real, and yet that's Bob to a t as well.
