David's Story
What I look like now:
Imagine George Clooney if he had drown in a river and his bloated and rotting corpse was found 4 days later. That's what I look like now...but not as good looking.
What I do for a living:
I sell weapons that don't work to countries so they can defend themselves against other countries that also bought my weapons that don't work.
What I plan to do when I retire:
- Become old and bitter
- Make up lengthy but easily refuted conspiracy theories, and tell them with conviction to random strangers at bus stops.
- Burst a blood vessel by screaming angrily at a bowl of cereal for being too crunchy.
