The People vs Zopittybop-bop-bop

Beezow Doo-doo Zopittybop-bop-bop (né Jeffrey Drew Wilschke) is facing felony drug charges in Iowa. I’m assuming that the since he legally changed his name the courts & authorities have to use it to refer to him.

Drugs? Really?

Particularly interesting is…

so I assume it’s pronounced “be-ZOWWWWWW!” and that’s how people have to address him. Either that, or Mr. Zoppitybop-bop-bop.

I thought this was going to be a thread about Bill Cosby!

This is the third time I’ve seen mention of this guy’s name today, and I giggled again.

what about our old friend:
Tarquin Fin-tim-lin-bin-whin-bim-lim-bus-stop-F’tang-F’tang-Olé-Biscuitbarrel.

He was born in a Monty Python sketch.
But I think somebody actually used the name to run for office in England --( representing the Raving Loony Party, of course.)

I can’t contain my inner law nerd, so I apologize in advance…

…but he’s in Iowa, so the case styling isn’t “People v…” but simply “State v…”

Not sure if “State v. Zopittybop-bop-bop” loses much in the way of humor, but there you have it.

I have a feeling he will be referred to as “the defendant” a lot.

Or “hey, you.”

Who are the idiots who let him change his name in the first place?

Statutes vary, of course, but for the most part an adult can change his or her name to whatever he or she damn well pleases, so far as I know. Some countries have lists of acceptable names; here in the US, you’d be getting into free speech/expression territory if you tried to limit it for adults. (Parents naming their children brings other interests into the equation and makes it all more complicated.)

I hope that the judge reads off the list of charges and supplies ample sound effects at the same time :smiley:

“The defendant is charged with one count of posession…POW!..2 counts of felony evasion…BAM! ZAP!..and KERPOW! one count of refusing to obey an officer! BAP!”

It’s people like this that give the hard working, law abiding Zopittybop-bop-bops of the world a bad name.

I hope he names his kid Bazinga.

On the bright side, when the judge tells him “son, you’re in deep doo doo,” he has the once in a lifetime chance to come back with “your honor, Doo Doo is my middle name!”

I’ve got a feeling that this is going to be an opportunity that regularly presents itself in Mr. Zopittybop-bop-bop’s life.

Senator, I served with Beezow Doo-doo Zopittybop-bop-bop. I knew Beezow Doo-doo Zopittybop-bop-bop. Beezow Doo-doo Zopittybop-bop-bop was a friend of mine. Senator, you’re no Beezow Doo-doo Zopittybop-bop-bop.

More name changing fun: Greatest team the world has ever seen

No shit.

Well, at least his name is Messiah.

The judge may go harder on him at sentencing (if he’s convicted) for starting some 1950’s music earworms.
