Unicorn Fail
First off, I’ve noticed I’ve gotten some new followers. Hi, welcome, and Happy Monday.
A few months ago, Cathy in marketing showed me the most disturbing Etsy find ever. The release of Regretsy reminded me of it’s existence.
Yes, this is a unicorn. Yes, you can find it on Etsy. Yes, this bothers me.
While taxidermy is useful from a scientific perspective, I wouldn’t want to own any. If I really want to see some, all I need to do is go to the Harvard Museum of Natural History where they have a full display from fishes to cloven footed animals.
Maybe I should write a letter.
Dear Taxidermist,
While I appreciate the work it took to make this unicorn and how in some sense of the word, it’s art, I’m more than a little skeeved by the concept. I see you also have a traditional white unicorn, both from dead-from-natural-causes lambs. I think that may be what’s bothering me. Kudos for working with what you got, but I don’t need the guarantee that you didn’t slaughter sheep for your art. I believe the technical term for that is TMI.
Thank you,
Disturbed Etsy Lurker

Wow. Not even sure how to comment on this. Does Cathy in marketing have enough work to do? LOL. Hope you're having a good day, Alicia.
Kris – it IS disturbing. Someone shared it with Cathy in marketing and of course she had to share the trauma with me.
Thanks for stopping by!
