Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for May 07, 2016
Transcript:
Marigold: You can make it rain outside my window, but you can't STOP it from raining now? I would not WANT to. It must rain sometimes. If your human taste for sunshine were always satisfied, nothing would grow. Phoebe: Like how I'm not allowed to have ice cream for dinner? Marigold: No, that is because your parents are big meanies.

Lawn sprinklers seem to be an attempt to eliminate the need for rain. Rain doesn’t care that it’s not needed, so it falls anyway.

Marigold’s tail is getting drenched! What happened to her tail umbrella she had a while back?

Didn’t Marigold once use a bubble of no rain? I know the umbrella’s are cuter, but still!

Being a big meanie is a prerequisite of being a parent.

We’ll overlook various and sundry references to a folk song involving unicorns, rain, and an ark. Obviously blown ’way out of proportion.

Wow, this story arc is taking longer than I expected (not that I’m complaining though). Speaking of complains, who understands Phoebe? Just days ago she was complaining about too much sunshine, and now she wants the rain to stop.

ice cream makes a pretty good dinner. That’s probably the only parenting point I would disagree with, otherwise, Phoebe has the ultimate parents… In fact, if i ever have a kid, i will basically be Phoebe’s dad.
In FACT!! if my debit card comes today I’m going to communist new seasons leaf and get me a thing of alden’s Chocolate Chip Chocolate. It’s almost like having love for dinner.
