    Unironically, Street Fighter. That scene where he says, “For you, the day Bison graced your village was one of the most important days of your life. But for me, it was Tuesday.”

    I think about it a lot in dealing with other people. It was supposed to make him sound like even more of a jerk, but I actually think it’s a good commentary on what it’s like to deal with the public. Imagine being a doctor. Sometimes, you get to deliver good news. Sometimes bad. Sometimes you can do something, and sometimes you just can’t. If the doctor tried to care as much as the patients, they’d be emotionally destroyed in short order. For them, it HAS to just be a Tuesday.

      Mad Men: I feel bad for you. I don't think about you at all.

      Similar vibe, but I think about this scene/meme a lot as well.

      Likewise, Don Draper is being an asshole in the scene. But, in reality most people don’t think about you.

      They could say something that offended you. They are going to forget about it. So there is no need to be upset, chances are they forgot about it.

      You could say something dumb or embarrassing. People are going to forget almost immediately.
