Allan being my favorite Smiling Friends Character for 2 minutes

[@umjammerlammy9993]

Alan is like the friend you had in high school who had a car and would drive you and your friends places.

[@x0x0xxooxoxx11]

spot on

[@overland1178]

And wouldn’t ask anything in return

[@conspiracypanda1200]

Alan is the introverted friend who just became part of the friend group purely trough close proximity.

[@BasuraVidz]

Wow this just actually happened to people!? I wish it happened to me! that would have been so cool.

[@OdaSwifteye]

@@BasuraVidz It's pretty easy. I'm an expert on it. When group conversations are had, put your phone down and look at the group like you are also interested in what's being said. Make funny faces and smile when someone says something that made other people laugh. If someone asks you a question just answer it. Occasionally ask if someone is okay, or if they are doing well, or if they need help with something. When at lunch or break, sit in their area as opposed to away from their area. Boom, coworker friends. Just remember to never talk about politics, religion, or the great pumpkin.

[@jitterbug4245]

I'd like to imagine that after the whole cheese incident, Alan now has an uncontrollable fear of tiny creatures. Hence why he straight up punched that poor lady at the beginning of this video.

[@thedespairpuppet]

I want it as a running gag that he just is startled by small creatures and punces or kicks them with no hesitation

[@alphabetsoup6837]

​@@thedespairpuppetwith the exception of glep

[@allforone3427]

I like how you can see that Alan was actually startled by the lady. I feel like in another show the joke would've been "Lol Alan is annoyed so he just hit someone for no reason"

[@thedespairpuppet]

The quick side eye look down made me loose my shit

[@RedsDens]

After the blibli crucifixion he's probably terrified of small creatures and people now

[@astrokattt]

0:56 After 2 years im still not over how a switch flips and he talks like the most normal guy ever for a second

[@jemmerl]

He's reached such a high level of "not doing this right now" that he breaks character

[@CaseyHaggh]

I love how his scream at 1:38 is just straight up a normal persons scream reaction to getting shot in the eye with a pellet.

[@kalimaude3532]

The way Alan speaks makes it sound as if sometimes he has to catch himself and make sure it's not quite correctly pronounced. He notably drops it when he is genuinely taken a back. He wants you to notice his weird speech. This is a man who is keeping your eye on one hand waving, so you don't pay attention to what the other hand is doing.

[@Totallynotredtail]

I like to think he just talks like that but he was genuinely so surprised at the man living in the walls that his speech pattern entirely changed for a second or two

[@notfunnydidntlaugh4929]

I love the Halloween gun dialog, the way he tells Pim he has to pick up the bullets when he's done and tells him no more gun stuff while being annoyed but not taking it out on Pim directly is so genuine

[@deviousj5868]

After what he went through for ONE box of Paperclips, his neurosis makes sense.

[@HMNCLunar]

After what he went through for ONE piece of cheese...

[@ClownsTavern]

Alan is just the embodiment of that one friend that’s been done with the friend groups shit a long time ago

[@Cpl.Clawhammer]

0:22 This is an EXCELLENT callout: the level of expression the animation team can get out of so few drawn lines is feels Don Hertzfeldtian. When Alan looks at the menu he’s clearly angry, but when his attention shifts to Pim & Charlie’s argument his expression subtly shifts to one of concern and discomfort. He’s clearly annoyed by the situation he’s in, but that resentment does not spill over onto his friends despite their squabble being a factor in that annoyance.

[@frogglen6350]

If I was in that situation and wasn't at fault, I'd start looking at the menu too.

[@Marcinex]

Alan in my mind is the most rounded character. He's not as energetic and enthusiastic as Pim, not as Pessimistic as Charlie and not as quiet as the green little dude. He's a bit of all of them and nothing as any of them at the same time.

[@17jacoyne]

y'know what i like the most about this character! is that whenever alan says words that have the letter T in them but the T is usually said with a "D" sound (I.E. water, heater, computer) he says the words with a hard T rather than a soft one
