The Ego of the Week this week is the Rumor nightclub mop. UTB sat down with the mop and heard all about the mop's role in the bustling Philadelphia clubbing scene, the mop's passions, and more!

Hometown: Cleaning supplies store

Major: Cleaning

Activities: Cleaning

Street: Describe an average day for you.

Mop: 5 a.m - 10 p.m.: Nothing. Just alone in a dark closet.

10 p.m. - 4:30 a.m.: I hit the dance floor to clean up spilled drinks.

4:30 a.m. - 5 a.m.: Julio wrings me out then returns me to the dark, dark closet :(

Street: What are you most passionate about?

Mop: The sound, smell, and feel of a battered, empty club after a long night. Alone at last! That's when I do my most intense cleaning.

Street: If you had a free day away from Rumor, what would you do?

Mop: I would try to find my way back to Rumor just in time for the club to open. Though I may physically stray from Rumor from time to time, my soul remains where the most spilled drinks are: at the heart of the dance floor.

Lightning Round:

Street: The best part about Philly is...

Mop: The bustling club scene

Street: The worst Part about Philly is...

Mop: 17-year-old Penn students acting up at the club

Street: There are two types of people at Penn:

Mop: People who spill their drinks on me and people who don't
