Do you like Unicorns? Play as a rampaging unicorn, take revenge on the humans and bring the death to the town. Unleash your fury and kill all humans. Maybe the best unicorn, epileptic fit inducing game ever!

Controls: Arrows = Movement, Spacebar = Fire

The pixelated beak-faced unicorn in the above frame from the online video game “Death Unicorn of Death” has a bone to pick. And it appears to be with a man wearing a bowler hat driving a soapbox derby car.

You have been warned, guy from Rene Magritte’s “Son of Man”.

The environmental and artistic celebration in advance of Earth Day invites people to carry flags, banners and streamers, play music and dance in the streets; wear homemade masks and costumes representing animals of the earth, water, air or fire. Unicorns are welcome, but not motor vehicles, written signs, motor vehicles or pets. The event is sponsored by Corvallis Environmental Center and Corvallis Parks and Recreation. For more information, call 541-766-6918 or see info@corvallisenvironmentalcenter.org

Thank you, Corvallis, OR, and your Parks and Recreation department for this kind invitation to your Earth Day celebration! We’ll click “Maybe” on the eVite, since we’re still waiting to see if an invitation comes through from Pawnee’s Parks and Recreation. (Sparkle Sugarlily has a thing for Ron Swanson’s mustache.)

“Robot Unicorn Attack”, the hit video game Adult Swim unleashed on iPhone last year, has a new home: Android. But will a smartphone named after a cyborg that plays a mechanical-unicorn-themed video game be just a little too much robot?

We decided to ask an expert on the matter for her opinion:

Unfortunately, she got distracted and rapidly vacuumed the entire living room before powering down in her cabinet.

Sometimes, the weekend can seem like a glimmering mirage — a moon-spangled unicorn standing on the horizon of fantasy. In short: Sometimes, the work week sucks.

For all those out there lusting for Saturday through Sunday, the YouTube Roundup theme this Friday is Mythical Creatures.

I think we all showed enormous restraint in not geeking out and including Google’s cloud-based music service, don’t you?

YouTube has established itself an effective way for mythical creatures to advance their cause, and Mashable.com pays tribute above to this budding romance.

Meanwhile, Vimeo waits patiently yet strategically in the wings, a rose in one hand and Binaca in the other, poised for the moment when he can woo the mythical creatures into his arms. And he is inching up on the epicness scale using electric guitars and dolphins: http://vimeo.com/2442332.

When reading the Cinefamily calendar of upcoming events, it’s tough to remain calm.

The organization — made up of movie lovers with a sense of quirk — is known for its unbridled enthusiasm. Event descriptions are often packed with capital letters and plenty of exclamation points. It’s almost as if we can’t read each word fast enough.

Such is the case with Cinefama Pajama Party VI:

“P-A, J-A, M-A….. Pajama Party! 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 — 6! WOW! Have we already danced in our PJs till the break of dawn that many times? Are you ready for more? Are you kidding?!?! Ask yourself: what’s the one thing deep down that all us lil’ sleepy-freakies love more than life itself? Uh, that would be UNICORNS!!!!”

That’s right — unicorns and pajamas. The Silent Movie Theatre, located at 611 N. Fairfax Ave., is screening the 1982 fantasy classic “The Last Unicorn,” and the proper attire is nightwear.

Not only is Saturday’s event “‘corn-tastic” and “uni-awesome” (their words), the Unicorn Magic Baking Company is in a “baking frenzy” working on “something really special” for the show.

Although Saturday’s movie is animated and pajamas are involved, leave the kids at home. The event page indicates this isn’t kid friendly. Dogs are also not welcome — even if they are wearing pajamas.

The pajama party runs 10:30 p.m. to 1 a.m. Tickets are $12 and available online.

.

If this event isn’t kid-friendly and dogs aren’t welcome, how do they feel about unicorns in pajamas? Because it seems rather hypocritical to say one loves unicorns, then discriminate against them…

Vote NO on unicorn-in-pajamas injustice!

Today has been declared Unicorn Day by the glittertastic crew at Comediva! Head over to their website to check out a unicorn Luke Skywalker fight Darth Vader with a light saber horn, as well as a letter from the current President of the NUA (National Unicorn Association) demanding that this holiday be extended from one day to 365.

So how are we celebrating this special day at Unicornomics? Well, since we have cupcakes, ice cream, and dancing every day here, we’re turning it up to 11 and breaking out the sparkling wine! Hop on the next rainbow and join us for Unicorn Day!

How this didn’t merit a CNN “Breaking News” alert, I don’t know, but: Apparently, anyone running Boston this year can get a free haircut.

And not the kind that I give myself the night before a race, with a pair of electric clippers and a #3 guard. A real haircut.

This is according to a press release article on Watertown.patch.com titled “Hair Cuttery Offering Free Haircuts to Boston Marathon Runners,” which explains how it will work:

Just bring in your registration form or bib number from the Boston Marathon to the Watertown Hair Cuttery and while supplies last, receive a water bottle and a coupon for a free shampoo, cut and blow dry. “We believe in doing good things for a wide range of causes, especially for those who do extraordinary things for themselves and others,” said Dennis Ratner, founder and CEO of Hair Cuttery. “We want our customers to know that not only do we support their charitable efforts, but we are also proud to reward them for making those efforts.”

Readers, do you know what I call free haircuts? A good start.

We work so hard for that Boston bib, why shouldn’t it be a passport to a better life? Here are a few other perks that I, as a Boston Marathon runner myself, think Boston vets are entitled to:

• Entry to American Airlines’ Admirals Club lounges at airports worldwide.
• Our own parking spaces at shopping centers, next to the handicap spots. Stenciled with a yellow unicorn head on a blue background.
• As many grapes as we can eat, for free, while standing in the supermarket’s produce section.
• Free shoulder rubs. From anybody we choose.
• A free short stack at IHOP, and not just on National Pancake Day.
• You know what? Make that a free tall stack. Yeah. That’s right.
• Access to crime scenes.

Winners of Boston would get all of the above, of course, but also would enjoy a few bonus perks. For instance, they could speed with impunity and would have immunity from public urination charges. Also they would get 15% off any purchases at Macy’s, forever. Even on stuff that’s already on sale. (I like to imagine they would take advantage of all three of those perks in rapid succession.)

To everyone out there who has run Boston, I urge you to contact your favorite businesses and demand what’s coming to you.

Meantime, see you at the Hair Cuttery. Ask for Dennis; I hear he gives a mean shoulder rub.

We’ll work on the second bullet point. And the seventh. But not the fifth or sixth, because unicorns prefer waffles to pancakes.

The week’s top ten quotes in American politics:

“Unicorns for everybody!” - The subject line of an e-mail sent from Rep. Nancy Pelosi’s office in reaction to Rep. Paul Ryan’s budget proposal.

We didn’t feel the need to include the other 9 quotes.

FYI: Everyone’s unicorns should be arriving soon by Unicorn Express. Allow 6-8 weeks (and a lot of political gobbledygook) for delivery.

It’s not every day that a unicorn sees a double rainbow!

Oh wait.

Yes, it is every day.
Every single day.

In fact, unicorns use rainbows for transportation, and double rainbows are the express lanes.

That means Bjorn, the famed unicorn of the “Peggle” puzzle video game, must have mistook this rainbow “all the way” for the rainbow room light - which is, indeed, a wonder!
