Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for January 31, 2021

That slide WAS huge! I knew it!

Sorry Marigold, I will politely decline your request.

Three-point landing that wasn’t. Thankfully!

I’m glad you didn’t tackle that slide “human style”.

With the angle that slide is at, I’d consider it a death trap.

oomf

Dunno. I think even the landing is magnificent.

What, no comments about slippery slopes?

I can’t stop wondering about the new joint in her left foreleg.

The bottom of the slide is supposed to bend up. Nobody could land gracefully on that one.

We might as well ignore every mistake in a preformance.

Her method looked more fun, though

Actually I think Marigold’s whole performance has a Flashdance charm to it. If it wasn’t for her surprised eyes at the end I’d think she’d planned it that way, and then she could wear one of those cutoff sweatshirts and cool head & hoofbands too.

No dice, Marigold!

A 5.0 from the Equestrian judge.

If that sight didn’t make you stop drinking, nothing would…

Not exactly made for fully adult pseudo Equus beings.

You were doing perfect until you got on the slide, Marigold.

Nice try.

Why? That landing was worth at least a 9.7

She said, ‘it was more. elegant.’ Did anyone else catch this grammar issue or am I going crazy?

Oddly enough, I don’t remember this strip! It’s a pleasant surprise, to be sure.
