I think we need a better name for J. D. Vance than Couchfucker, and after due conideration I'd like to submit, for your consideration,

"Beelzebubba"

@cstross I've been calling him 'the blowfish', puffy outside, hollow inside. But to meet the supernatural requirement, I bring you Pazuzu, Mesopotamian wind demon. (didn't the exorcist start with a Mesopotamian demon?)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pazuzu

Pazuzu - Wikipedia

Pazuzu. He is shown with "a rather canine face with abnormally bulging eyes, a scaly body, a snake-headed penis, the talons of a bird and usually wings". Description from Wikipedia.

@cstross Don Coscarelli and Bruce Campbell were planning on doing a sequel to Bubba Ho-Tep called Bubba Nosferatu, but couldn't decide what the film should be about. I think we've found our winner. You want to call them and get them going on this sure to be brilliant sequel?

@cstross I always wonder why people call him JD Vance instead of James D. Vance (or just James Vance).

@jschwart Because that's not his real name: he's James Donald Bowman (and he says you aren't ever allowed to change your name because of the eeevil transes or something, so I'm going to take him at his word).

@cstross yeah, actually I wrote that wrong. I am really wondering why people always call him "Jay Dee" Vance. But I think calling James D. Vance just Beelzebubba would be the easiest yes.

I’m considering ways to incorporate his creepy doll face, but also I would prefer not to think about him at all. blobcatlaugh

Bill Hicks coined 'Beelzebozo' as ruler of 90s right wingers.

I’ve always called him JD Shvantz. It’s one of many Yiddish terms for ‘dick’, with the benefit of sounding like his name.

Also Beelzebubba was taken by punk-parody band The Dead Millmen. A fairly classic album.

@etchedpixels Nope, needs to be a name riffing on a Christian devil, for maximum offense. Also needs to knock his carefully contrived Appalachian/"poor white trash" imposture (hence "bubba").

Unfortunately, Robert F. Astaroth Jr, Prince of Health and Human Services, has taken one of the demon names.

JD Beliar?
