Meet Alan the Alien: the ultimate cynical extraterrestrial from heartfelt bedtime stories told to my oldest daughter. This animated GIF captures his signature vibe perfectly – flickering between a crisp, vibrant portrait of a lime-green, large-headed alien with weary eyes, a dangling cigarette trailing faint smoke, and an "FML" T-shirt that screams existential resignation, against a bold magenta backdrop – and a chaotic glitch-distorted version where RGB shifts and pixelated noise tear across his face, embodying that fleeting spark of optimism before cynicism snaps back in.
