You are such a Jerk! I finally got the smack down on integrals and Sigma, and now this. I get it, you want to out wit EVERYBODY. Well guess what compadre? This semester blows because of your idiocy. I don’t have 5 hours to study one example! ONE EXAMPLE. I have a life. I am a captain of my ship, I am a commander of a grime unit. I can’t focus on my work when I have to worry about whether or not your “standard of geometry” is so much more awesome than Euclid.
I.am.in.hell. I have to study you. I really don’t like you. You are my road block, therefore, I must destroy you. I just want to get to the business and skip you. What’s the business? Partial Fraction and break it down as an Integral. Beat it Reimann. Outta my way, you ugly monkey.
First off
Dear Space Invaders,
I Like Mad Men too! Horray! The fashion is all over the magazines, so say good bye to your cigarette pants, lil’ audreys, and say hello to long, wide and oppressive petticoat dresses that are at ankle length and itchy as hell.
Every blog has analyzed the entire cast of characters, so I’m happy to announce that I will analyze Carla and Don’s maid Celia.
Carla, where is this babe from ??? Either she lives in Ossining or she travels from Harlem to Ossining which makes sense since you can catch the metro north there ( I don’t have the patience to go to AMC and find her character bio… wait, she ain’t got one). So anyways, she is quiet, but you know she is judging Betty left and right. She has wisdom. The kids sorta’ respect her. But who is Carla?
I bet she has kids, she can cook a mean sweet potato pie and her house is probably a mess because her commute might be hell. Memorable scene of Carla was when Don Draper asked her if he can take her to the station. She noticed home slice was blitzed out. She gave that look like ” You had to many”. Another memorable scene of Carla was when she tried to mind her business until she see’s Betty lock jamming into Don’s desk. She had to speak up and tell her what she was doing was hella’ wrong and she needs to fall back a little because what was in that desk was going hurt her more than him. I liked that scene because Betty and Carla were on the same level, as women. Female camaraderie!
We know that Civil Rights and the Vietnam War is happening during the four seasons of Mad Men, yet they are realistic about how racist some of these characters are. They are in their own little world and I am sure in 2010, it hasn’t change that much, especially in the more exclusive and rich law firms, financial firms and some parts of academia.
What Carla represents is the stable part of the Draper house hold. She plays a stereo typical house maid, sure, but her silence and roving eye helps move the storyline along between the past seasons of Betty and Don. She will be the one the kids will see as their mother, as Betty did with her nanny during her youth.
As season four’s first episode aired, we see Don arriving to his shady apartment on 6th and Waverly (shout out to Duane Reade, ha ha) and here we have Celia. Come on, she’s Puerto Rican.
A) That is a Bronx accent
B) She prepared him pork chops AKA Chuleta’s
C) She put away his shoe shine box
Homeboy went out and bought back take out. Is you crazy Dick Whitman? I know about 5 people who would stab a stranger just for some Chuleta’s, and that’s excluding the beans and fried plantains. Jesus Christ, wasn’t he just a bowl of peaches to her with the line “DON’T REMOVE MY SHOE SHINE BOX”.
Celia probably lives in the Bronx or Spanish Harlem and has a big family. Sadly, heroin runs rampant in those neighborhoods as the Young Lords movement creeps in (with cointelpro nipping at their heels), along with the Salsa/mambo experience. Unlike Carla, Celia gets no respect because Don Draper simply hates women.
