.
Even if you’re not a fan of Team Fortress 2, the multiplayer video game that introduced us to Baloonicorn, you can still appreciate the cuddliness of this inflatable friend. Thanks to alert unicorn advocate @UnicornFancy, we are adding this Think Geek gift to our wish list!
And unicorn wish lists are practically guaranteed to come true.

A new Olympic event from UnicornsBarfRainbows.com
.
Thanks to the webcomic Unicorns Barf Rainbows, we can now witness the joy that would be the Olympic sport of Unicorn Dancing. Notice, by the way, that the unicorns are not Riverdancing. Even they know that season has passed.

Portland’s Joan of Arc statue earns unicorn status
Roadside sign wisdom will save your tukhus - literally!

Apparently, the person who owns the diner on the sign above this admonition did not take that advice…

CakeWrecks.com takes on travesties against unicorns
.
For those unfamiliar with the website CakeWrecks.com, their tagline is “When professional cakes go horribly, hilariously wrong.” The entry above, brought to our attention by unicorn advocate @Glitzy, features some hilariously wrong unicorn-themed cakes. From the photo above of a headless unicorn to poop clouds tacked on a rainbow, these bakers seem to know just how to ruin the most magical of moments!

In Denver, pigs replaced by unicorns and zombies
.
In the article above from the Denver Post, Dana Cain, Denver County Fair Director, makes the following eyebrow-raising statement:
“We’ve got unicorns. We’ve got zombies. But there are no pigs at our fair.”
While we are grateful to be on the winning side of this unusual form of discrimination, we do feel for our mud-dwelling snouted friends who will miss out on the county fair fun this year. Thus, if you are of the swine persuasion, meet us at Entrance B, where we will gladly provide you with a stick-on horn and glitter mane extensions.

Everyone knows what horse shoes look like, but unicorn shoes?

Now, as for lounging around the barn, unicorn slippers may be more appropriate…

The NFL finally has a unicorn in it!
.
True to their name, the New York Giants have indeed become larger than life:
They now have a unicorn on their team.
Martellus Bennett, the tight-end pictured above, was quoted this past week outing himself as the mystical creature:
“Ask any of the guys in the camp, I’m stronger than I’ve ever been, I’m faster than I’ve ever been. I could run all day. I’m kind of like a black unicorn out there. It’s amazing to watch.”
And watch we will, in hopes to glimpse a rainbow trail as he gallops down the field!

On a diet? Well, you can still *dress* like a cupcake!

Who said ponchos had to be big & unattractive?
Okay, maybe this one doesn’t completely break that trend, but it’s a whole new type of unattractive: Deliciously ugly!
This cupcake poncho, complete with sprinkles and a cherry hood, is ready to give the Snuggy a run for its money. That is, if the wearer doesn’t trip over the giant cupcake cup bottom or get eaten by a sugar-craving Godzilla.
