Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for March 01, 2016
Transcript:
Phoebe: You're wearing a shirt. Marigold: Indeed. Phoebe: Why? And why that one? Marigold: Because I am in the mood to engage in the oldest and noblest of unicorn games! It is a cataclysmic clash in which a shimmering, heavy ball of crystal is propelled at ten defiant pegs, vanquishing as many as fate and physics will allow. Phoebe: Based partly on the shirt, I think you mean bowling? Marigold: Humans know of it? We must have a security leak!

Does this noble unicorn game also involve having to wear sparkling but stinky rental bowling shoes?

But surely, human bowling alleys don’t have sparkly pretzels.

It’s a good thing she isn’t going to play Star Trek in that red shirt.

Phoebe’s response should have been “Yikes! You’ve become lower-middle class!”

“Fate and physics”? To paraphrase Anger from “Inside-Out”: “Congratulations, unicorns! You just ruined bowling!!”

The Shield of Boringness must be down and, since we’re talking about bowling here, that is the ultimate irony.

Man…if the unicorns are only JUST NOW finding out that humans know of bowling when they didn’t want them to know, then frankly they must have awful security.
But then again, seeing you can distract a unicorn indefinitely by simply showing them a mirror…

I’ll bet that her ball has only one hole in it.
