I vote for this one: “innocent and naive and bumbling and lovable”

Personally I think you’re funniest when you appear to be boasting and then become self-deprecating. ;)

The only advice I’d give ya is to stay away from the political stuff because you automatically alienate a good portion of the audience.

Good luck and break a Femur or whatever you show biz people say.

Everyone loves a list, but even more so when it's hilarious. Which brings me to this idea I had while waking up from a weird dream just now. I think you should name one of your upcoming blogs, "outrageous threats." Then as your followers, we leave an outrageous threat directed at you. For example, I might write something like, "Alison! If you don't include my question in your next vlog, I will stop using dryer sheets for the next 6 months so that all my clothes pop with the static!" Not sure where this idea has come from. Anyway, something to consider! Thanks.<br/><br/>Toddrod Alison, I wanted to add that I really enjoyed the second part of your column on McSweeney’s.

Maybe play the innocent off with a comedic wink and a nod when you drop the knowing jokes. <br/><br/>As much as I'd like to pretend otherwise, I don't really know you, but that back and forth seems to be how you really are. The Red Eye clip of the vacuum cleaner sex toy against the innuendo filled intros you wrote for example. Your the kind of girl who blushes at her own dirty filthy jokes. Personally I find that appealing.<br/><br/>Living in the City would likely turn me homicidal, but I do miss being able to head out to clubs (comedy or otherwise) at a moments notice.<br/><br/>Word Verification: defulary <br/><br/>"And as you can see in this x-ray Mr Jones.

I posted a link on the Activity Pit. <br/><br/>My suggestion for #11: Shoot anyone who moves your cheese. <br/><br/>Wow, you did two stand-ups this week - that's fantastic! And it sounds like you were pretty relaxed doing them. <br/><br/>Good luck with the audition. We're all rooting for you!!! Great McSweeney’s column, Alison! I posted a link on the Activity Pit.
