For a time in the years around 2008 I would sign my credit card receipts "Ron Paul," which eventually resulted in a sternly-worded letter from Wells Fargo that carried no legal weight but did lead to me discontinuing the silly little campaign.

I don't get the punchline. Are you not named that? Did they care that you signed by writing a random person's name, or were you imitating a specific person you knew or so?

Ron Paul was a US presidential candidate in 2008, so I guess that's who they were signing as. Especially given their username...

Oh! Right, I had looked at the username to see if it was related but even that didn't make the name click. I must just have never heard it before
