    This would be funny if I thought he had a sense of humor.

    I think he probably heard a joke about Hannibal Lechter being nice because he wants to have you for dinner but doesn’t get how humor works so he works it into speech awkwardly and without context. His addled brain jumps from ‘asylum’ to Hannibal Lechter being nice and just skipped right over the connections that make it a joke.
