I'm not sure I'm posting this in the right place, but there was no "Doom Objects" forum, so what the heck, I'll post it here.
I very unexpectedly received a gift from one of the brethren -- I'm very pleased and appreciative to be the recipient of "The Avenging Unicorn Play Set." It contains a poseable Unicorn and three figures for the unicorn to impale on its horn. One of the figures is a mime. Another is a guy who looks remarkably like my boss. And four substitute horns with unique magical powers. Nifty, eh? I now have an impaled mime on my desk. What could be better than that???
Just thought I'd share with you the instructions on the Avenging Unicorn play set:
"Do you believe?
"Unicorns are magical creatures that exist only for those who believe. When they are not frolicking in dewey meadows or posing on windy cliffs, they are helping believers do away with daily annoyances.
"Are you tired of being accosted by the creepy mime who thinks he deserves a quarter for pretending to be trapped in a box? Does that arrogant businessman in the well-pressed suit drive you crazy with loud talking on his cell phone in a crowded elevator? Does the New Age lady at the bookstore get on your neres when she starts rnanting about her latest encounter with an ancient warrior spirit?
"Close your eyes, take a deep breath and summon a unicorn. If you believe in the magic of unicorns with all your hear and soul they will answer your call.
"Magical Horns: Not all unicorn horns are the same! Each one has unique magical powers.
1) Pearlescent: mind control, weather control, super hearing
2) Spiral: illusion casting, superhealing (i.e. turns blood into rose petals)
3) Glow: hypnosis, enhanced agility
4) Chrome: electromagnetism, speed reading, teleportation"

Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.
