Interviews are Great When You're Good and Angry

I got called into an interview for a position I thought I was woefully underqualified for (in retrospect, I know I've got what it takes) and said some pretty stupid things:

Them: When we hire you, we'll be giving you a BlackBerry.
Me: What if I lose it?
Them: ...
Me: I'm just kidding you know.
Them: Haha, oh...well, it happens, and you just fill out a form.

Them: In some cases, we'll require you to write small pieces and post them up on our web site. Can you write well?
Me: Me good English write.
Them: <Raucous laughter>

Other than that, I thought the interview went very well, but I doubt I'll get a callback. Ahhh, foolishness, whatever would I do without you?

Interviewer #1: Wow, what an immature moron.
Interviewer #2: Yeah.
Interviewer #1: Wanna go to the strip club for lunch?
Interviewer #2: Great idea!
 
Them: Well Mr. Darktubbly, it sure was nice to meet you.

darktubbly: Well, I wish I could say the same, but I must say, with all due respect, I find it very hard to see the logic behind some of the moves you have made with this fine organization. In the past twenty years you have caused myself, and the city of Ohio, a good deal of distress, as we have watched you take your beloved company and reduce it to a laughing stock, all for the glorification of your massive ego!

Them: Hire this man!

They did say they were going for lunch soon, and it was a shade past 10. Then again, it is a federal government position.
