Everybody
oohing and aahing over Dapper Don Draper fixing the kitchen faucet during the
dinner party. Somehow this is the mark of a real man. A man among men. A manly
man's man. If amateur plumbing and car repair was the mark of a real man I
would have balls the size of cantelopes. And I don't. So I have to call
bullshit. I know the purpose of the scene was to show Don getting those vaginal
sprinklers going as the women stood back admiring his man handling of that
balky plumbing. But c'mon, what's he fix it with? A fork? Where's his bucket of
tools? A real man has a bucket of tools. Maybe two. I know I do. Then he
explains that the supply valve was turned all the way on and the faucet
couldn't handle it. Double bullshit. (And I'm wrong but a manly man looks this shit up, admits he's wrong but doesn't correct it because that's for wimps)
A real
man knows two things about plumbing:
1 - you
can't have too many tools
and 2 -
Yay for plastic
