    That's one of my all-time favorite Allie Brosh posts. Now I'm dying to know where you got your alot. Did someone make it for you, or can those be purchased somewhere? I totally need one for my office!

    Tawna, it was a gift from a client! I'm pretty sure she made it her own sweet self since this Alot is a "Thanks Alot"

    However, I totally agree that there need to be Alots for sale!

    AH! I love this! It looks just like the little computer image from cartoon grammar lessons. So cute! Lucky girl.

    Maybe you can set up a play date with Alot's distant cousin - Its O. It's - bane of 5th graders and sloppy writers everywhere.

    It frightens me when memes cross over to the real world. It frightens me, Alot.

    I love the original ALOT blog post. I tried to share on Facebook, but Facebook thought it was spam. Maybe Twitter will like it better...

    I see a future in licensing and mass production. I would buy one . . .

    Nice. I got a Round Tuit once. Usually I don't get a round tuit. Oh, well, not Alot.

    Your Alot is fabulous! Your client could sell those and make a bundle. It reminds me a bit of Totoro (from My Neighbor Totoro by Hayao Miyazaki) - very cute.

    The Alot!!! Still my favorite of all of Allie's posts...

    I envy you a lot because of your alot. I think your client could sell a lot of alots on etsy.

    I think Allie needs to write a picture book featuring alot. Kids would find alot to be a lot of fun, and booksellers could merch the book next to Jan Carr's GREEDY APOSTROPHE.

    Maybe Z and Allie could write a picture book with pictures of Z's real "Alots!"

    SWILUA has spoken! (It means "She Who Is Like Unto Aphrodite" but really, only if Aphrodite has some work done.) SWILUA got Alot of luck. It was made out of the other sock. Full disclosure: the recipe for Alot is quite simple. You need

    1 pair dollar-store fuzzy socks
    Thread
    Clay
    Hotglue gun
    Sharpie pen
    Nerve
    Ability to withstand punning

    Mix well, et voila.

    I think I could make a pocket ALOT with all the fuzz from the dryer screen.
    Come to think of it, ALOT looks a lots more like an ALOTA (Feminine version)...humm...
    but than maybe it's an ITS-IT'S. Anyways I guesses for all intensive purposes I shouldn't go their.
    (sigh...it's very hard to right wrong ;) I admire good editors.

    Do Alots eat a lot? How about housebreaking? I'm in the market for a low maintenance pet.

    The only thing more awesome than the Alot are the comments in this thread. Happy New Year, Janet!

    Not a Warrior Princess!

    Of course she'd need plastic surgery. I'm a unicorn.

    I love my alot a lot a lot a lot. Even better now that I know J.R. has the other sock half!

    it's funny... for reasons beyond comprehension, I didn't expect to see you in this line of comments. which is pretty silly if you think about it.

Keep your comments succinct. Any comment that runs longer than 100 words is generally too long.

If you're commenting more than three times a day, it's too much.


Civility is enforced. Spelling/grammar mistakes may be pointed out ONLY in the blog post itself, not in any of the ensuing commenter's contributions.

If your comment doesn't show up, it's most likely that Blogger ate it. Try posting again using a GoogleID. (comment moderation is on only for older posts)
