   You've been here for two years already?  Good Lord am I old.

~After all, we’ve got two totally different signatures:

Mr. Marchetti has the clever, witty, yet sarcastic   -- Hop-Frog  as his sign.
While I possess the characterful, dynamic, original  --==RïçhårÐ==--  as mine.

   That may be why you're second-fiddle.  Too many people keep
   trying to pronounce that...thing.

*You’d think I'd be easily picked out with my use of:

#1. Lively ACII characters; ¸,ø¤º°`°º¤ ~ Æ Å 2¢ ¥ £ € $ § ‹± ¤º°`°º¤ø,¸

#2.         The way I artfully lop-off the end of a ‘G.’
         (For example:)
                         Havin’
                         Thinkin’
                         Tryin’
                         Cryin’

#3.         The way I throw in archaic forms of old-speak to infer a measure
of flavor/dialect.
           (For example:)
                          Mayhaps t’would
                          ‘tis   betwixt
                          Thou hast
                          Prithee
                          Durst
                          Wilt

   Durst is supposedly musical, and Wilt is worth ten thousand....
   nevermind.fnord

And all this is seamlessly intertwined into a majikal potpourri of flowing
verse…

<Sarcasm On>
But I guess once you’ve spoken to one ‘Richard’ you’ve spoken to ‘em all,

   You forgot about eyeball-biting monkeys™, Stubbies™, and head-stepping.

   Or is it bad form to admit that's what I identify you most closely with?
   Also, your rants are markedly different from the other Richards' (yes,
   there are more Richards beneath you as well).  Have no fear--some kinds
   of notoriety you may not, in fact, will.

   best
