According to Urban Dictionary, a unicorn chaser is anything that "serves as a cleansing of the palate after a viewer has been subjected to a distasteful internet image or experience." If you've ever mistakenly clicked a link that showed you something really disgusting, like clown porn or those prairie dresses from Target, then you know what I'm talking about.
You used to be able to buy a Unicorn Chaser from ThinkGeek (RIP), thought they never mentioned what it tasted like. I'm guessing moonbeams and Oreo filling, because I can't imagine anything that tastes better than that, except maybe Oreo filling without the moonbeams. But it might taste like green Skittles, which would be disgusting, and then you'd need another chaser for your Unicorn chaser. Which would be both sad and kind of filling.
Look, my point is that these clouds look like shit:
No, wait. That wasn't my point at all.
My point is, Unicorn horns: Do they really need a point?
Or can they just be a giant lump like a cartoon head injury? Or a large pile of bird doo-doo?
And do unicorns need heads, or can they just puke rainbows directly out of their necks?
Assuming they still have a horn jammed in there somewhere, I mean?
True Story: As I was typing "do unicorns need heads" just now, I could totally hear one of you saying, "Why would a unicorn need a bathroom at sea?" And I was all, "WAIT FOR ME TO FINISH THE QUESTION, IMAGINARY WISE-GUY READER." And then you were all, "Gee, sorry," and I was able to move on after eating a spoonful of Oreo filling for recovery purposes.
This unicorn-pooping-cupcakes cake is adorable, and I won't have any of you speaking a WORD against it.
Unless you want to comment on the wonky elongated nipple/leg. That I'd be ok with.
And finally, you know how when you visit a friend or relative, and you break something, and you just lay the broken bits down like they're not broken and hope nobody notices until a few days after you leave? No?
Ok, how about this:
You know how when you can't get a cake unicorn head to stand up on its own, so you just break it off and plop it back down on the body at an unnatural angle and pretend it's supposed to look like that?
o.0
[backing away slowly]
If anyone needs me, I'll just be over here eating Oreo fillings in the moonlight. Just as soon as I find a picture of the moon for my computer screen.
Hey Laura B., Andrea & Anne Marie, Joshanna R., Robin E., & Samantha S. - why the long face and creepy demon eyes?

P.S. Oh! For you minions who have both a pool and a sense of style:
Came accross this cropped screenshot someone mentioned was from Patlabor on which two very familiar looking girls are passing by. Not sure of this was a dedicated cameo or just coincidence, but am trying to see what episode and sweies from Patlabor its from.
Its still pretty neat.
EDIT: Thanks to a reply below, I got told its most likely from episode 2 of the Patlabor OVA.
I've spoken about how this is a tricksy year for hockey in a post earlier this year. But I am enjoying some of the games, even when we're getting beaten. And we are improving.
But it can still be frustrating to see players who aren't ready for this grade (and aren't improving) struggle in the face of it.
Apocalypse Hotel was great. Just great. Go watch it. It's definitely on my Hugo ballot next year.
Kowloon Generic Romance ended very well, even if the finale didn't quite have time to spell out every last detail of what was going on. Presumably the manga, which is ending soon, will be able to explain better. Recommended with some disclaimers: there are some very male-gaze camera angles at first but they stop after episode 2, and there is someone who initially appears to be a depressingly stereotypical queer villain but ultimately becomes three-dimensional and far more sympathetic.
Zatsu Tabi continued to be exactly what it appeared to be, a low-key story about travel and introduction to some of Japan's lesser-known tourist attractions.
Sword of the Demon Hunter is continuing into summer, but I have to say this: The choice to fridge someone in the first episode wound up feeling more and more out of place as the story went on. The subsequent story isn't grimdark at all; eventually it's about a guy hanging out in a soba shop with his friends and taking on jobs with an emphasis on how his work heals the community. Even the demons are mostly sympathetic at this point. So I'm not sure why the author chose to do that, other than he couldn't think of another way to get the protagonist out of his comortable village life and out into the world.
For next season, the shows I'm looking at fall into three categories:
Shows I am truly interested in checking out: Bullet/Bullet, Necronomico and the Cosmic Horror Show, The Earthbound Mole, Onmyo Kaiten Re: Birth Verse Show I would be checking out if it weren't on Netflix: The Summer Hikaru Died Shows I should be excited about on paper but am not really: Cute High Earth Defense Club Haikara!, Toilet-Bound Hanako-kun season 2 part 2, Ruri Rocks
The pinch hits are currently due Friday 18 July at 11:59pm Eastern time.
The exchange requires a completed work of a minimum of 3,000 words for fanfiction or a minimum of 10 panels for a comic. (We also allow a recording of a completed fic of 3,000 words minimum with "casefic" as one of its tags, but these requests are not asking for podfic.) Works must include a fandom, character/ship and be of a medium that the recipient has requested. You must have an AO3 account to participate.
If you would like to claim, please comment on the pinch hit post. Thank you!
Finished Episode 2 of the Dirty Pair series and will continue it as much as I get the time to do do so.
Speaking of Anime watching, am also resuming All Purpose Cultural Catgirl Nuku Nuku (say that ten times fast,) which I haven't got to finish it ever since I owned a VHS tape with a couple episodes long ago. That's something I need to rectify.
Also trying to finish Patlabor the Mobile Police to move on to other series like Dr. Stone and the last season of My Hero Academia. There are other series I'm eyeing but for now, I'm trying to finish what I had watched before in order to move forward.
Up till now I've only watched the OAVs and the reboot Dirty Pair Flash which didn't attract me as much as the old timy whimy series. I never even knew a series existed until I stumbled into them on youtube. I gotta say there's a lot of what you can learn from here which potentially connects to said OAVs, and the 80s scifi feel of its phenomenal.
