# or more explicitly
$fml->last( { as => 'object' } ); # same as above
$fml->last( { as => 'text' } ); # returns an array of text anecdotes
$fml->last( { as => 'data' } ); # returns an array of hashes of anecdotes
You can also specify which page you want:
# return 1st page
my @last = fml->last();
# return 5th page
my @last = $fml->last(5);
