Get the Altomug. Someone that has a Red Vuse Alto Device, aka a Red Body, is very suspicious and you should stay away from this person. Normally this color device is given to them rather than chosen. Was it a choice or was it given to them by fate? Don't find out on your own
Person- "Can I hit that alto?"
Red Body- "Yeah here you go."
Person- "Ohhhhhhh you got a Red Alto. Never mind I’m good.”

Get the Red Altomug. This is a term used in the SF Bay Area / Silicon Valley to convey that you’re probably making a solid living at $300+ k per year but are still considered “poor” (& lower-middle class) in this area.
My daughter works as a cardiologist at Stanford, but still calls herself “Palo Alto poor” because she can’t afford to buy a house in the area.

Get the Palo Alto poormug. In choral music, the alto section is often divided into two groups: alto 1 versus alto 2. Alto 2 music is written from F3 to A4. Alto 1 singers are normally relegated to notes up to F5 and sometimes higher, and often do not sing notes lower than A3.
