I came across this Post Secret video today, which consists of people confessing their inner most secrets, video diary style. Unlike the site where the confessions are completely anonymous, those in this video are spilling their guts right in front of the camera. So imagine my surprise when I discovered that one of these people was my husband. Yes, I watched this entire video with my stomach in a knot, waiting to see what he would confess, but alas, he merely says “Um, awkward?” That’s it. No confession. No secret. Oh well, truthfully, I’m sort of relieved.

This is funny, because when I went in front of the PostSecret camera they kept talking about how I could tell them any secret, and that nobody would know. And like 5 people I know randomly saw this.

They didn’t end up using my secret, which was something to the extent of my having more right-wing/fascist beliefs than I let on. But, TBH, I’m not even sure I believe that shit anymore.

My sister and I now have the exact same haircut and color. Can you guess which one is which?

Based on root length, I’m going to say the near one is you.

Similarly, Mad Men underexploits its setting in the advertising industry, always a fun business to portray, in favor of emphasizing relationships. In the pilot episode set in 1960, for instance, Don Draper is proclaimed a genius by his clients and colleagues for dreaming up a new slogan for Lucky Strike cigarettes: “It’s Toasted.” In reality, a lame phrase like that would have been laughed at in 1960. Lucky Strike’s “It’s Toasted” slogan actually dates to 1917.
