Quote by Seth Green
“More often than not, I get accused of stuff that I just wasn't in, and when I tell them that I wasn't in it, they don't believe me. They just go, 'Dude, you were in that Rogaine ad,' and I say, 'No, I'm an actor, but I wasn't in that commercial.' Then they're like, 'Yes you were, man! What a jerk! Why are you being such a jerk? Let's kick this guy's ass!' So it's good I run fast.”
