RTFirefly, you have some company...

Rufus T. Firefly registered today.

Is there room enough for the two of you? Will you systematically annihilate each other when you interact? Will either of you EVER be funny, unlike your namesake?

Inquiring minds want to know. :wink:

I told you that needed changing, RT.

Now look what’s happened.

Heck, I was surprised the system allowed the name :slight_smile:

I didn’t know there was another one on here! If I can’t use Rufus T. Firefly, I usually register for stuff with (the somewhat more obscure) Waldorf T. Flywheel.

Hey, take it up with RT.

Personally, if both of you stayed in character I’d pay money for the show.

I’m a little rusty on my Marx bros… I have to find a decent collection on DVD sometime…

And I’m much better at appreciating it than acting it.

That’s OK. So is RT.

But don’t get him started on Firersign Theater.

And welcome aboard, RTF(2). Always room for another at the table.

JC, at least you won’t get confused at MAD gatherings:

Anyone: “Hey, RT!”

Rufus T. and RTF: “What? Oh, damn, not again!”

[sub]There’s also the “Hey, JC!” shout, which nets two responses when Corrado’s out and about…[/sub]

Unless Rufus T. is into long voyages, I don’t think s/he will be seen at too many MAD gatherings, given that s/he states that s/he is from Vancouver, BC, Canada. Probably a good thing there!

Groucho is smiling down on us today. I am glad.

lel, that was rather my point;)

I’d like to point out that J.C. described above is not me. As far as I know.

Jonathan Chance do you think we… I mean I? Us??? has a split personality?

Nah…

But don’t think I don’t have my eye on you, buster.

I sometimes have a hard time finding my socks in the morning. *cough cough *
:wink:

We also have an Exapno Mapcase here on the Boards—and I am known in some circles as the Margaret Dumont of the new millennium . . .

Now if only Mooch would post to this thread, we’d be completely confused.

Yeah sure, Dave, start this thread while I’m without power, thanks to Isabel. :slight_smile:

Rufus, I’d say it’s up to you. I’ve got absolutely no problem with there being dueling Presidents of Freedonia on this board. Anytime we cross paths in a thread, we can pretend we’re in the mirror scene in Duck Soup.

For awhile, it might confuse others who think you’re me, or I’m you, or who am us, anyway?, but I think everybody would eventually get us figured out.

But if you feel like switching to another Marxian alias, that’s fine too. You’re obviously fairly literate in the Marx canon to have cited Waldorf T. Flywheel (from the Flywheel, Shyster, and Flywheel series), as opposed to Wolf J. Flywheel (The Big Store). So welcome! Whether you remain Rufus, or whether you change to something else, I’m sure this board is big enough for both of us.

Eve, as Margaret Dumont’s champion in this zoo, you’re definitely our honorary Margaret Dumont - unless my wife ever signs up here, in which case I’m lobbying for her to be Gloria Teasdale. :slight_smile:

We also can’t forget that Why A Duck? is also a Doper in good standing. We don’t have anyone named for a Chico role AFAICT, but he gives us someone named after a Chico line. And for the fourth Marx Brother, we’ve always got Zappo, who’s only a vowel away.

That may well be the geekiest thing you’ve ever posted, RT.

Why thanks, Nate. :slight_smile:

I stand in awe of my fellow Groucho junky. I also received an email from one of the board admins suggesting a name change may be appropriate.

I’m still thinking about it. I find I use Waldorf more often because Rufus is usually taken anyways. My 2nd choice was going to be whyaduck, but as you mentioned, we already have one of those, too.

Next time I join a group, I shall have to have a closer look for variations :smack:

Not hardly. Once he posted (IIRC) the proof on one of his math shirts (I think it was the “2=1” shirt, though I’ve seen his "Integration is as easy as [buncha math gobbledygook] shirt as well. Funny stuff:)).

But then, the fact that such a thread could exist on this board is testament enough to the fact that he is not alone.
