Hi! I’m Alison. I’m a comedian. I pay the bills by playing people on TV, in movies and online. I also write words and worry too much. I have an embarrassingly low level of fame where no one knows my name, but they have this feeling that they went to school with me. I like firm handshakes, information, my dog, smart people and the Earth. I’m on Parks and Rec sometimes and VH1 even more. I’m sorry if I once pranked you on MTV. But, c’mon! That was fun, right?Tumblr (3.0; @alisonbecker)http://alisonbecker.com/<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lzppe4wZq41qznheco1_500.png"/><br/><br/>http://alisonbecker.com/post/18018858165http://alisonbecker.com/post/18018858165Tue, 21 Feb 2012 10:32:52 -0800<img src="http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lzjpbxPlHz1qakblyo1_500.png"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lzjpbxPlHz1qakblyo2_400.png"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lzjpbxPlHz1qakblyo3_400.png"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lzjpbxPlHz1qakblyo4_500.png"/><br/> <br/><p>I loved this man so much when I was child. </p>http://alisonbecker.com/post/17920328162http://alisonbecker.com/post/17920328162Sun, 19 Feb 2012 18:06:16 -0800<iframe width="400" height="225" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/ZEMPpyJyB_0?wmode=transparent&autohide=1&egm=0&hd=1&iv_load_policy=3&modestbranding=1&rel=0&showinfo=0&showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br/><br/><p>“Dating Rules” has gotten over 5 million views on YouTube and over 2 million on Hulu.
