So a new OC spawned and decided to highjack an old throw-away idea... here's the result.
Hey, how ya doin? I'm doing miserably. Why? Doesn't matter. My name also doesn't matter. What does matter is that I'm here to "talk" about my experience with dating all the wrong people because my best friend, who shall also remain anonymous, recently realized I've dated exactly 26 different people whose names all start with a different letter. In other words, here's a list of my misadventures in alphabetical order.

random thing i noticed while going through the character bios again: wally's bio now gives information about how his puppet was handled
there isn't any kind of sneaky wording here that would imply he was operated different from the others either, as frank is described the exact same way in his bio.
if it's true that wally WAS in fact puppeteered by someone and wasn't running around the studio by himself like some horrible gay homunculus, he was most likely puppeteered by ronald dorlaine, the creator of welcome home. wally is kind of the "kermit" of welcome home, and kermit was puppeteered by jim henson until his death in 1990. kermit was also referred to as henson's "alter ego" at times, his co-stars saying that it became hard to tell where kermit ended and henson started at times.
i think clown's mentioned the relationship between a puppet and their puppeteers being a topic explored in welcome home at some point (one of these mentions was pre-overhaul, so i'm not sure if it's still true), and has stated that there are going to be more human characters introduced. and since welcome home takes a lot of inspiration from the history of the muppets (and is why we need more horror media written by people really autistic about the topic covered), and "dorlaine" sounds so similar to "darling", it's possible wally may have been ronald dorlaine's "alter ego" in the same way that kermit was for jim henson.
i don't what what any of this implies or if any of this makes sense. i went on this whole rant because of one line of text. is anyone reading this. did anyone see that gnome run by. its so dark in here
