It doesn't really exist, this Frat Pack. We run into each other on occasions and we all like each other's films, I guess, but there isn't some big funny restaurant or bar where we all hang out. At least, if there is, they haven't invited me.
Will Ferrell
I guess destiny isn't the path chosen for us, but the path we chose for ourselves.
