Sometimes, a unicorn is just a horny horse.

"I was abstinent for unicorns."

Ponyamory: you're doing it wrong?

I always wondered what the unicorns wanted with the maidens... then I read a short story about a maiden who met a unicorn... several months later she gave birth to a small four-hooved, horned creature who ran off into the woods and left her. I am content to not attract unicorns.

Plus, in the Ebeneezum trilogy and the Wanderings of Wuntvor, Wuntvor is constantly being stalked by the unicorn who repeatedly asks to rest his head in Wuntvor's lap. Not only is this really annoying to Wuntvor who can't lose the darn creature, but he's outed to everyone as a virgin.

I didn't end up with a very positive impression of unicorns. They can be pretty though, and I did have Lisa Frank stickers.

In Mercedes Lackey's fairy tale series, unicorns are -always- obsessing over virgins. And it's pretty funny when non-virgins come near them.

which series is this? i only read misty's valdemar books probably because the cover blurbs from other titles never grabbed me but i could be persuaded to check out some unicorn mary sue action!

Series starts with The Fairy Godmother. Starts out with one hilariously annoying Uni. In.... Ugh. Andromeda's book, I forget what it's called, (second book in the series) you get four hilariously annoying unicorns. I haven't read the Little Mermaid one yet, and the Snow Queen's is sorely lacking in the unicorn department, but a good read in my opinion.

And the unicorns aren't Mary Sues, per se. They are gorgeous and powerful creatures, but dumb as door nails. The main character has a good theory on that whole thing that I agree with (if you're beautiful and strong as a magic creature, you are not going to be smart).

Abstinent? Sheesh, if your HBB wants you to be exclusive to her, you're doing it way wrong.

The problem with unicorns is they have been hunted almost to extinction.

But there isn't a "Save the Unicorns" movement, so until Greenpeace gets on the bandwagon...

And within is the comment that uses "starboard" instead of "right"...

They're talking about a boat. I struggle to understand the snark. But then I agree with the quote "there's nothing so fun as simply messing about in boats" and miss not living closer to the coast or a river big enough to take anything bigger than a canoe.

Does this mean that in order to attract Hot Bi Babes, one must remain a virgin?

We finally have the answer to all those "Seeing: female to add to our loving home" personal ads!

I knew someone had a better snark for that than I did! Thank you!
