Each of the characters has his or her own particular trademark mannerism or trait. Julian often takes a leadership role and devises schemes, all while holding a rum and Coke on the rocks in his hand. Ricky believes himself to be dumb, and looks to Julian for advice; his speech is often laced with malapropisms, referred to by fans as “Rickyisms”, he is usually quite incompetent and is also known for his trademark sideburns.
