I'm pretty sure Colin would be totally pumped to get some recognition for his hard work, so if you're feeling helpful, you can go over to Newgrounds and rate the video and/or leave a comment. If you're confused about how to rate things on Newgrounds, go here. I have provided a handy screenshot with a giant yellow arrow and some helpful instructions.In other news, I recently moved to Bend, Oregon because it is quite possibly the best place on earth and just breathing the air here is like huffing joy and celebration. The bad news is that I've been busy using my shriveled, little t-rex arms in a mismatched battle with heavy boxes and furniture.
Perhaps the exhaustion and feelings of physical inadequacy involved in the move caused me to be slightly more vulnerable than usual, but a few days ago, I wrote this post. Which I promptly buried below my other posts because it is shameful and it could possibly be interpreted in a way that would make me look like an alcoholic.
Anyway, I'm working on a new post and, despite signs to the contrary, I'm not beginning an agonizing retreat into a life of substance abuse and failure. In fact, just this morning, I ate fruit, drew a picture of my dog and then later waved pleasantly at a person passing by on the street. Is that something that a despondent, irreversibly damaged drunk would do? Kapow. Totally logical and irrefutable rebuttal to your possible doubts.
Allie, unless you were trying really hard, or feeling really depressed, I don't think it's possible for you to not be funny. You probably only have one unfunny cell in your body at a time, and you just pull it out on special occasions. Also, you are a huge inspiration for me, not just as a suddenly wildly famous blogger I hope to someday live up to, but because you overcome and work with your ADHD fantastically in a way that gives me courage with BPD which I have begun to ask for help with. Be proud of yourself and accept everyone's compliments graciously, us online stranger types have no problems being honest.
ReplyDeleteToo silly! I love all your posts so much, allie!
ReplyDeleteYou've always struck me as someone who would enjoy Oregon! (Or maybe that's just what I think of anyone I enjoy.)Bend is the fuckin' bee's knees. And Portland is awesome as well, but the two tend to be about EIGHT HOURS AWAY FROM EACH OTHER.I don't understand geography.Looking forward to more posts?
ReplyDeleteBecause you're so amazing I feel empty when it's been awhile since I've been updated on your awesomeness :/ Move in quick and come back soon!
ReplyDeleteI seem to only be able to write at all in the wake of Achewood, Pictures for Sad Children, and This.Clearly the internet doesn't want me to write.
ReplyDeleteYou have no idea how happy your drunk post made me. You say your recent posts were as good as you could get, but they lack the crazy, hyper you that seems so obvious in your early posts. Of course, I love hearing these stories, but they just don't have personality. Take a moment. Waste a Saturday or stay up all night to read your blog from the beginning. Read your rants on fans and cords. Read your posts on your adventures in Internet pirating. See your personality. See your bond with us, the first readers. See how you depended on us, knew us, read and replied to each and every one of our comments.You loved us Allie, and we loved you. But now you have disappeared. You've been taken away from us. What did it, Allie? What changed you? You hardly ever post, and never those incredible rants that I know so many of us must crave. You don't share the bond with us you once did. You may never read this. You may never know.That personality, the random silliness that I used to love, and that incredible bond with your readers, they all came back in that one drunk post. This is you, Allie. Why can't you see that? It must be somewhere, so let it out! Give us back what we came here for. All we want is our bond, a few laughs, and a touching moment or two mixed in.You might just be trying too hard. Let the inner you go. Somehow I think that's what you wanted when you started.Please, Allie. For all of us.
ReplyDeleteDear Allie,You deserve eight bazillion ponies.Anyways, best of luck with your new place in Oregon.And thank you for writing your blog, as always. :)
ReplyDeleteWhy you post after such a long time? I think everyone would love it if you post more frequent...love(X_X)
ReplyDeleteI heart you. You are so funny! I loved your blog that you back dated to hide! Your humor is amazing. Does it come in pill form?
ReplyDeleteI think you under the impression that we want to see better stuff from you, but really, we just want to see MORE stuff for you. Post more often!! The long posts are great but it sucks to wait weeks for a single post :(
ReplyDeleteWell, that sucked. Just because he worked hard on it, doesn't make it good.
ReplyDeleteI wish you updated everyday. My life is too boring for you to not update everyday.
ReplyDeletePlease re-label this cartoon as "moving montage" and make it a tee and I'll buy it!
ReplyDeletethis video is awesome if for no other reason than Courage the Cowardly Dog is in it. love it!!!
ReplyDeleteSo, We love you Allie and understand you have a life, but I am starting to miss your blog updates! Can't wait for the next one! :D
ReplyDeleteMAKE BLOGS NOW DAMNITI MISS YOUR AMAZINGLY DETAILED PICTURES
ReplyDeleteHey, person! Bend is pretty good you say? I never though much of Bend, just a town I pass to go to Eugene. Ever lived there? That place is the bomb. Also, Bandon is very nice as well. I hear Reedsport sucks though. Also, WOOT OREGON.If you actually read these, hit me up. We'll chat about oregon.
ReplyDeleteI felt you should know, my cat just walked over my keyboard and his random keysmash activated my browser's bookmark to your blog. I feel that my cat has excellent taste.
ReplyDeleteso there are a shit ton of comments here. but I thought I would just let you know 3 things.1) hyperbole and a half is awesome, therefore by extension you are awesome.2) part of the reason I started a blog is so I could leave stalker comments on yours.3) there are no orcs in my closet, but I'm pretty sure Golum lives there.(#3 really has nothing to do with the most recent post. sorry)
ReplyDeleteSome of the best and most famous artists/writers in history have been depressed. And alcoholic.Just take it as a sign that you're on the right track.
ReplyDeleteAllie! So glad you are back, but I still love drunken Allie too, of course! ♥
ReplyDeleteSo I watched video in its entirety. It's just like "that joke," you know the one that was really funny and then the person telling it kept going and going, and going, and the joke isn't funny anymore, but you know you're still into it, except the person keeps going, and now your not so sure it's funny any more. In fact you're begging to hate the joke and if the person telling it would stop right now you wouldn't totally hate the joke, but instead of noticing that you're about to hang yourself, they keep going and so you set your hair on fire and run from the building screaming while every watches you go both disturbed and relieved that you got that guy to shut up. The video is just like that. It just went on so long that instead of wanting more I was waiting for it to end. Your boyfriend might be talented, I don't know. It could aslo be that your humor doesn't translate as well into video well, at least not with some editing.
ReplyDeleteThe opinions of anons who fall over themselves fawning over the TBW (Trendy Blogger of the Week) have merit, and those who don't agree can go suck a lemon. Yes, that's right. If you don't agree that this blog is the best, you're scum of the earth because there is nothing worse than an original idea. Take this blog for instance. It's not original. The author, who because of being jobless and a set of parents who support her has plenty of free time, utilizes (not steals) ideas from other bloggers and DOES THEM BETTER. If you don't agree, drop dead and die.Allie, I know you were upset when people were calling you out on using other people's ideas, but since you can't find any more of your own, I think you should go back to using other people's. Then this blog could be really awesome again.
ReplyDeletewhere the hell did you go? :[
ReplyDeletePLEASE POST SOMETHING NEW!! FOR THE LOVE OF HILARITY, PLLEEAASSEE!!! sdgnsfgnqw903481-028rwe
