Comedian Jono Zalay and his family have developed the awesome tradition of lightly trolling the government over the years, by presenting themselves on official photo ID’s as ‘characters’.

It all started with his dad. “He would dress up for college IDs and eventually drivers licenses, Jono told Bored Panda. “His past characters included mafia hitman, lumberjack, and civil war general where he shaved his beard into burnsides. He ended up keeping that look for like 6 months.”

Jono recently took to Twitter to document his latest incarnation. “Recently moved back to California and had to get a new drivers license,” he wrote. “This is my story.” Having previously sported an impressive handlebar moustache, cornrows, and a mullet Billy Ray Cyrus would be proud of, he chose to raise the bar this time by going all-out anti-authority.

Doesn’t it give him bother with the cops though? “It’s never really been anything more than an inconvenience,” he explained. “I’ve been pulled over by cops or extra scrutinized by the TSA, but they mostly just do a double take and let me go on my way. Because ultimately it’s my face, and I don’t to anything to alter that. There are as many authorities who have given me a laugh or smile than have given me a stern eye-roll.”

We all know that going to any kind of government department, the DMV especially, pretty much sucks. The queues, the sticky plastic seats, getting passed from line to line as the clerk decides to close just as you finally arrive… the thirst for revenge is somewhat understandable. So why not have a little fun with them like Jono has?
