Don Draper is a meme machine
And here you thought Sad Don Draper would be the Mad Men Meme of 2010. Thanks to that old viral-video standby, the supercut, Don Draper has found himself in the middle of another meme, this one branching off from the recent "Don Draper Says What."
Supercuts are amusing, and this one is particularly good, but the real sign of serious memetude is remixability, and "Don Draper Says What" has already proven its mash-up potential. The first and most obvious pairing is with another famous string of "what," the "Say 'what' again" scene from Pulp Fiction.

Well, that's a match made in meme heaven, isn't it?
