Nylons
Rachel: I’ve never been in love.
Don: She won’t get married ‘cause she’s never been in love. I think I wrote that, just to sell nylons.

Don: I don’t know if that’s…true. You want another drink?

– No more mosques, period - American Family Association
In case you were wondering about whether the “Ground Zero mosque” uproar was actually about respecting the [bigoted] anguish of 9/11 families, or whether it was just about the bigoted (no brackets) anguish of bigots in general.
