I actually wanted to be in the FBI for about 20 minutes after I saw that movie with Jodie Foster and that guy who eats people in his basement, but I was really stoned at the time.
And to be honest with you, for about 20 minutes, I also thought about making a dress out of people's skin.
But as far as joining the FBI is concerned, let me put it this way. I failed a test to get in a book club.
