    Making the same comment in multiple threads doesn't make it more interesting Fonz.

    Adoring allteration always adds to my awesomeness!

    I don’t know, really. Like, I just never think about it. I’m always thinking about spaceships and machine guns and stuff like that. I guess alliteration can be kind of cool?

    It's a nice enough literary technique but it can be abused by really dull people to create really dull reading, like anything.

    Also the V for Vendetta thing everyone started doing oh dear that was. Not. Cool.

    It's a good poetic device for titles and phrases, but it should be kept out of normal conversation wherever possible.

    Teal is awesome. Alliteration is cool, but not as cool as teal.

    I went past a lake that was literally teal. It may have been called Teal Lake or something. It was gorgeous.
