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

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!!

this feels gauche, but when i announced i was starting a blog, everyone assured me this is a thing that is done. i’m not on facebook, i’ve never had a cellphone or listened to a podcast; so many common experiences of modern life are foreign to me, but i’m certainly struggling financially, so if this is how the world works now, i’d be foolish to pass it up. any support will be received with equal parts gratitude and bewilderment.
