Mad Men came to an end Sunday night, leaving Twitter with a lot of emotions to sort through.
1. It was important going into this to understand that there was no way we were all getting out of this happy.
"I didn't like the ending to that TV show." --Everyone ever for every TV show ever.
2. And we all accepted that we'd never stop side-eyeing Don Draper's decison-making.
Oh, Don. What white person nonsense is this? #MadMen #MadMenFinale
3. Active parenting might not be the noble choice when you're terrible at decisions.
Most radical suggestion in Mad Men finale: It might be better for all concerned if some people with children step away from being parents.
4. Even the critics who went to Oberlin have their limits when it comes to hippie oversaturation.
I don't even want to watch hippies on TV. And I went to Oberlin. #MadMenFinale
5. Our latent traits will always come back to save us and ruin us.
don always was a hippie. #madmen
6. We've been conditioned to expect the most violent option from our ~*prestige*~ television.
HERE COME THE CULT KILLINGS #MadMenFinale
7. We really have all been conditioned for PAIN.
Stan bout to get hit by a bus in the next scene. #MadMen
8. And there's always room for unicorns.
so pissed off there weren't more unicorns what a sham #MadMenFinale
9. Drugs are the answer.
In this episode of "Mad Men," we learn that developing a coke habit makes you awesome at long-range decision making.
(Note: Drugs are not actually the answer.)
10. And some things are just not allowed if you're trying to live your best life.
Don't ever let yourself be judged by people in OVERALLS. #MadMen
11. Jay R. Ferguson really sealed himself into our hearts as a forever bae.
Frankly, I know I'm not the only one who googled "is Jay R Ferguson married" last night. #MadMenFinale
12. And Joan Holloway-Harris is the one true Khaleesi of '60s television.
HOLLOWAY-HARRIS IS THE NAME I WILL GIVE MY FIRST CHILD #MadMenFinale
13. And her Slytherin nature will rule our hearts forever in its ambition and in its spite.
ALL FEMALE PRODUCTION COMPANY SHIT ON EM SHIT ON THEIR WHOLE LIFE JOAN!!! 🙌🏾👑💵 #MadMenFinale
14. Our subconsciouses may take longer to let go of this show than we'd like.
I dreamed that there was a bonus scene that showed Bob Benson working for Joan. Dreamed it. Woke up and thought it happened. #MadMenFinale
15. And it's OK to weep over the awesomeness of women.
I guess I'm going to sit on this couch and cry about fucking perfect Peggy and Joan for the rest of my life. #MadMen
16. There'll always be something out of our reach we'll be pining for.
I wish Mad Men had taken place in the 1970s, instead, and ended with Don finding inner peace in aerobics.
17. And hey, this show just really made all of us think.
So maybe... the true Mad Men... was us.
