Is this some sort of euphemism? Bet you were willing to take part in his poll.
It's one of the most-quoted lines from Silence of the Lambs. "A census-taker tried to test me, once. I ate his liver, with a nice Chianti and some fava beans."
It popped into my head because you said fedora, and I thought of the scene at the end of Silence of the Lambs where Hannibal buys a new fedora and goes to visit Dr. Chilton.
Very tangential reference, I know. My mind works in very tangential ways.
