alternize

To use a different (alternate) approach to solving a problem when the standard approach doesn't work, an approach that is less complicated than improvising.

There was no bell at the hotel front desk, so we alternized by saying "ding, ding" until the clerk came out of the back room.

chocolate-milk alternative

Refers to a "just as bad or worse" substitution-product/activity employed to supposedly "fill the void" created by a discontinued unhealthy habit --- the idea here is that while the milk itself may indeed be low-fat, the added calorie-rich and sugary-sweet chocolate has far more fattening ingredients than just the cream in full-fat milk could possibly have contained, and so the person will likely gain even more weight than ever.

Three classic --- and very tragic --- examples of a "chocolate-milk alternative" would be a substance-abuse recovery-program's giving a dry-drunk lots of high-sugar foods in place of alcohol, someone's switching to compulsive shopping in place of gambling, or a person's becoming harshly-snappy and irritably-demanding after giving up cigarettes.

Alternative

Alternative or ALT for short is a type of art where a rule 34 artist makes nsfw and then and ALTist (alternative artist) passes it down and makes it a safe for work. The practice consist that you must credit the artist at the end or else it’s plagiarism. The artist can only make SFW and no other accounts for doing nsfw. This practice has not been used. Yet…

Person 1: hey have you heard what is an alternative?
Person 2: wtf is that?
