Who is in love with the fluther jellyfishes halloween costume?

Asked by MaekoPoisoning (401points) October 26th, 2010

He is dressed as a cute little vampire… I personally think he pulled it off quite well. (he would have been a better octopus though)

I like his widow’s peak. Hooray for Jelly Lugosi!

Ha ha, thanks guys! The Fluther jellyfish’s name is Dr J, and this year he decided to drink blood instead of seawater. It’s a life-changing experience for him, as it means he has to live on fish instead of plankton. Wish him luck!

JilltheTooth's avatar

Oh, c’mon, don’t I get some props for my “Jelly Lugosi” joke…don’t tell me you’re too young to get the reference!

chyna's avatar

@JilltheTooth Thanks for pointing out the widow’s peak! I didn’t notice. I did laugh at your Jelly Lugosi joke. I’m not too young…

@JilltheTooth I just GA’d you; it was very funny. There is another thread trying to name him – put it out there.

I hope you guys know that Dr J is really Andrew. Have you noticed you never see them both at the same time?

JilltheTooth's avatar

@janbb ; The clot thickens! Which other thread?

chyna's avatar

@janbb You’re right, I have never seen Dr. J and Andrew at the same time. Kind of like Superman and Clark Kent.

JilltheTooth's avatar

Just found it.
Yeah, after all DrJ has glasses, Andrew doesn’t But the cape is a dead get it? giveaway…

janbb's avatar

Andrew wears glasses sometimes: it’s a plot I tell you, a plot!

I am concerned about the iron cross. It might mean either that Dr. J is impervious to traditional things that hurt vampires or that it is just Andrew dressed up as Dr. J dressed up as a vampire.

GQ to @MaekoPoisoning for noticing.

camertron's avatar

@janbb as long as I have known him (2 months) I have never seen andrew without his glasses on.

JilltheTooth's avatar

All I had to go on was the avatar pic. I feel he has deliberately and maliciously misled me and I will have to take drastic action. I’ll have a glass of wine. So there.

chyna's avatar

@camertron Clark Kent wore glasses too. Just sayin’.

camertron's avatar

@JilltheTooth LOL!
@chyna so true… and he disappears on Monday mornings to go to an “acting class”. Very suspicious…

JilltheTooth's avatar

And I’ll bet Dr J just happens to drop by on…Monday mornings? And always is sad that he’s missed Andrew?

janbb's avatar

@camertron I have known Andrew for many years and I can safely say I have never seen him and Dr. J at the same time. “Acting” classes indeed!

Jeruba's avatar

What, you think posing as a jellyfish just comes naturally?

janbb's avatar

Good point @Jeruba – but wouldn’t you think by now….?

JilltheTooth's avatar

@janbb : I think @Jeruba ‘s point does hold water haha because he’d be doing an interspecies impersonation, and not even a vertebrate at that!

janbb's avatar

True, true – are his acting classes at the Monterey Aquarium by any chance? That would be telling on a number of counts.

JilltheTooth's avatar

Hey, guys, we’d better be careful here, the CIA could be monitoring this thread and we could get into some serious trou

aprilsimnel's avatar

It’s very cute!

augustlan's avatar

Love it! :D

Rockin’ the widow’s peak!

bob_'s avatar

I’m not.

erichw1504's avatar

@bob_ Way to be a Debbie Downer.

bob_'s avatar

@erichw1504 Cheer me up. Go make me a sandwich.

erichw1504's avatar

@bob_ OK, what would you like? How about a… knuckle sandwich!

bob_'s avatar

@erichw1504 I prefer pastrami, if you got any lying around.

erichw1504's avatar

@bob_ Pastrami, with a side of… knuckles!

bob_'s avatar

@erichw1504 No French fries?

erichw1504's avatar

@bob_ Knuckle fries!

bob_'s avatar

@erichw1504 You know, I just had a couple of oatmeal cookies, and I’m not hungry anymore, so I think I’ll pass, thanks.

I love the costume. My avatar is still a little sad that Dr. J never acknowledged the Ode I wrote for him. [I was, of course, channeling the bunny when I did it]. At that time my bunny avatar had fangs and blood drops for Halloween, which I should go right now and put back. Maybe there is a chance for them after all since their costume choices are sympatico? LOL

camertron's avatar

@diavolobella what was the ode you wrote? Can you tell us again?

diavolobella's avatar

It is on my profile. I copied it there from the original question I posted it on

camertron's avatar

I told Dr. J about your ode – somehow he missed it amidst the thousands of questions and answers he wades through on Fluther. He felt awful that he missed it though and so dictated this response to me last night:

To my dear diavolobella,

There comes a day in a jelly’s life,
An hour dark, and with sadness rife,
That bids him wonder, “What have I
still on this Earth when I will die?”

“How will my work, my life’s ambition,
my hopes, my goals brought to fruition,
be remembered after I have gone –
Have I a foundation to stand upon?

Then, from midst the tidepools deep,
Your poem finds me and I weep.
For now I know my heart’s been true,
I’m forever content because of you.

It matters not that I float and glide
Under th’ sea, ‘long with the tide
For we are linked by other forces
Jell and Bunny together – of courses!

Our love magnanimously joins
my tentacles (and maybe loins)
to your silky self, your darling nose –
With every glance my love grows.

Although we may never say “I do”
One thing I’ll always know is true:
Like you I’ll never find another
So fine a bunny in my fluther!

So stay above, tend to your land
While I am tied to sea and sand.
But worry not, our love shall be
always constant, eternally.

- Dr. J

I regret that I have but one GA to give to my favorite poet coelenterate.

janbb's avatar

@camertron A star is born. That was amazing! I agree; it deserves many, many GAs!

(Got any penguin themed odes in your noodle?)

camertron's avatar

@JilltheTooth and @janbb thanks, but Dr. J deserves the credit – he wrote the whole thing!

JilltheTooth's avatar

I did give him the credit!

camertron's avatar

@JilltheTooth hmm yes it seems you did – I guess I was just talking to @janbb. Coelenterate is a great vocab word by the way – nicely done. I like “Medusozoa” too!

JilltheTooth's avatar

Oh! I love it! “Medusozoa” is much more evocative!

chyna's avatar

@camertron Wow, that was really nice. Dr J outdid himself. Tell him I said so next time you see him. I gave him a GA through you. :-)

janbb's avatar

@camertron Guess you didn’t realize I was talking to Dr. J through you. Please give him my message. (nice save?)

chyna's avatar

@janbb Great save! :-)

janbb's avatar

@chyna Have I told you lately that I love you?

diavolobella's avatar

@camertron Thank you, thank you, thank you for telling me about this! I had totally missed it. My little fuzzy bunny heart is all fluther….uh, flutter..uh…beating really fast. Acknowledged by Dr. J, my main Jellyman. I am overwhelmed. [Hops off happily blushing]

janbb's avatar

And yet another great Fluther romance begins!
