Sometimes Unicorns aren't enough.
I really wanted this pen bad, so bad I moved through a despondent 13 yr old boy and his mother to get it.
I did a happy unicorn dance, because that is what you do.
The mother moved on, the young manling walked after her, a confused cloud over him. Why was that pen was so incredibly awesome; what was he missing in life?
After they had turned the corner I had just finished diligently reading the promotional charity being serviced by unicorn heads all over the nation..
"When you buy one of our yoobi products, a needy child is given the same item you bought."
I drooped inwardly, because I really wanted that pen and a charity would have been a bonus; but not this.
The image of a needy child being handed the same Unicorn pen. A promise of cheerful mediocrity and the hell of a public education.
I just couldn't do it...
