101 Ways to Use a Unicorn by Robb Pearlman
My rating: 5/5 cats
unicorn!!
uuuuuuuniccoooooornnn!!
this book is great, but i think it’s probably most useful to people who have, like, a whole passel of unicorns at their disposal. if you only have one lousy unicorn, how would you ever decide if it would be best used as a paperweight or as a piñata??
a proctologic instrument or a back scratcher??
(you’re not going to want to change your mind halfway through)
and how can you tell if your unicorn would make a better chauffeur or good cop?
and what if you receive an invitation to a wedding right in the middle of plowing season??
it hardly seems fair to have to make these kinds of choices – i want my milk and my honey both! give me a herd of horny creatures so i can use this book to its fullest, is that too much to ask?
however, if i had to choose, i would go with either bookmark
or warning.
those two things seem best suited to my day-to-day needs.
i like that this book has some “fun with homonyms” juxtapositions like
and
but when presented the opportunity to do it a third time, it totally drops the ball.
come on, book – we’re all adults with unicorns here, don’t be a tease!!
lacking that companion-photo, i will just post a few other examples out of the 101 that i enjoyed:
my only question is – why are the unicorns’ horns located so damn far down their noses??
it’s like these people have never even SEEN a real unicorn, jeez. i should send them a warning. you know, for science.
uuuuuuuniccoooooornnn!!
