Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for May 05, 2023

And Marigold is as unicorn as the most unicorn unicorn who ever unicorned!

I’d try to judge the accuracy of the assessment, but trying to define what counts as human is far too political. Especially if your exceptions are capable of making a counterargument.

Smurf moment

Hyperbolic is a pun…

Marigold seems to be the only unicorn who has attempted hyperbole so she is correct but has achieved victory through lack of competition.

OK Marigold, OK!

BEHOLD!!!

That was the greatest demonstration of hyperbole in the history of the entire universe and for all time.

Insult or compliment?

Yeah, let’s not get ahead of ourselves here, Marigold.

human.. human? this is confusing.

This reminds me of Linus’s comment in A Charlie Brown Christmas.

“Of all the Charlie Browns in the world, you’re the Charlie Browniest.”

I humaned once. Didn’t care for it.

So many different animals have names that act as verbs,

Like “badger,” “ferret,” “dog,” and “cow.” Would this get on their nerves?

If they spoke English also, what would “human” come to mean?

To greatly change the landscape and/or dominate the scene?

To make and/or depend upon a plethora of tools?

To run upon one’s hind legs or to babble on like fools?

To hunt for sport? To go to war for very little reason?

To cover up one’s private parts? To mate in every season?

With luck, it might allude to humans’ rare consideration

In giving other animals our love and adoration.

Of course, we tend to figure they’ve at best a mixed opinion

Of humans as a species, with our overdone dominion.

Enthusiasm in there somewhere.

very well, Marigold

Reminds me of a similar good saying …

Today has been the Mondayest Monday that ever Mondayed.
