Transylvanian-American
From The Extended Group
A Transylvanian-American is a term that is used to describe one of Jeremy's Personas. Example: "Jeremy has made significant contributions in reversing current stereotypes people have of the Transylvanian-American community."
Origin
Begining in approximately the summer of 2002, Jeremy developed a series of voices to use as a way of deterring unwanted attention from himself or simply to neutralize an emotion that may have been otherwise difficult to express. Combined with some of his more traditional slogans (ie "Alllriiight", "Ho, ho, ho", etc), the behavior of this specific persona is marked by exaggerated tonal fluctuations and an accent distinct to pop-culture representations of the classic "Count Dracula". Further parallels were drawn to the mythical character as it was pointed out that both Jeremy and Dracula willingly abided by unusual sleeping patterns. The term sees rare use today as this character has for the most part cycled out of Jeremy's rotation of personas.
