I remember, once, my sister used to tell me that they found me in the trash-can when I was younger, so one time I pushed my sister into a trash-can - I put it over her head and pushed her down the street. And then after that, we been close ever since.

When people ask me my influences and I'm like, nobody they're like, there has to be somebody. People seem to think you have to have an influence.
