Dear Diary,
It is Earthdate 0528040328. The carbon-based units suspect nothing.
I myself suspect my domestic partner, MYQ unit, to be entirely manmade. While "his" programming is nearly immaculate, there is an obvious flaw in communication design indicated by a most omnipresent tendency to initiate "plays on words" - a incessant application of formula no human could imitate. Additionally, anatomy is clearly exaggerated, though this has not proved an entirely un-beneficial defect.
Attempts to infultrate social circles have been lacking in substantial results. Gaining acceptance among carbon-based units has proved more difficult than anticipated. According to recent experiential data, the following statements and interrogatives are not appropriate means of approaching individual units: "You are clearly the offspring of one or more superior specimen"..."This gathering of humans is displeasing, let us steal away from this establishment directly"...and "I'm wearing underpants."
Despite lagging progress, the mission remains intact, its implementation imminent. We will triumph!
signing off,
E.L.A.I.N.E.

Letters to Betty
Our readers share agony and irony with The Unicorn Shack's all-knowing Administratrix.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Betty,
I'd like to be able to realize my dreams of gluttony by eating unlimited amounts of fat-laden foods without gaining weight. Any suggestions? Oh, and I'd also like to jump off a building twenty or more stories high without dying.
Sincerely,
Pollyanna Popculture
Dear Pollyanna,
Luckily for those without self-control or the will to develop it, there are means to avoid the consequences of one's actions, like living off the flesh of lesser creatures, extracting their life forces without loosening your belt. Try eating animals while they're still alive for optimal freshness.
To avoid dying when jumping from great heights, I'd suggest using the bodies of children, preferably low-income or foreign, to break your fall.
love,
Betty
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Betty,
Lately I've been experiencing an overwhelming hostility toward humans and humanity itself. I feel like there are lies everywhere; in the mechanisms by which we live, our interpersonal operations, even to ourselves. It's as if the human race has convinced itself that cruelty and willfull ignorance are simply facts of life. Is there any hope for us and our world?
Sincerely,
Bleedy Hart
Dear Bleedy,
Nope. There isn't. That disgust you feel is a product of a level of awareness that is spawned by carelessly avoiding the ample distractions that are necessary to remove yourself from reality. Try watching some tv, reading some magazines. Take a trip to the mall, buy yourself something. You may not feel better right away, but soon the sharp pains of empathy and longing for truth and equality will fade into a dull, repressable backdrop. Good luck!
love,
Betty

Betty's Beauty Tips
Want to be beautiful? Now you can! The Unicorn Shack has developed a Top Ten list that will redefine your notions of beauty and create a rift in space and time through which you can leap to aesthetic appeal!
10.) Think positive. Nobody likes a sad clown. You'll be attractive someday if you put your mind to it!
9.) When naked, be sure to pose in positions that accentuate your good points and hide your fatness. For an instant flat stomach, try lying on your back.
8.) Wear clothing that flatters your shape. Just because Beyonce can pull off that halter doesn't mean it's okay for you! Top-heavy or bottom-bountiful, there's a style to hide your fat! Simple tricks like wearing jeans that allow room for your skin to breathe can not only give the appearance of a normal weight-level, but also avoid "camel-toe" and nasty yeast infections.
7.) Buy products that claim to enhance beauty. The more expensive, the better the result will be. Late night TV is a great place to find informative programs about products you can have sent directly to your home.
6.) Read magazines that portray unrealistic standards of beauty. You can't go wrong with constant feelings of inadequacy! This will ensure you're always on the latest diet craze and frenzied last-minute exercise trend.
5.) Get rid of good-looking friends. They're only working to make you look worse. In fact, they may have you around only to make themselves look better! Surround yourself with people who are less attractive than you (ideally people who haven't read this great list!).
4.) Stop eating so much. Being underweight is half the battle for beauty! Many can work their way down to eating once a day or even three times a week. Be sure to find alternative means for energy such as diet pills or street drugs so you're not a party-pooper.
3.) Great genes make for great looks. No, we're not talking denim! Having beautiful parents can greatly increase your chances of being attractive. Take a look and see.
2.) Avoid facial expressions of any kind. Did you know that every time you move your face, wrinkles are created? Try to keep your face rigid at all times. Open your mouth as infrequently as possible. Perhaps you could learn sign language if you feel the need to communicate. Otherwise, let your youthful appearance do the talking!
1.) Plastic surgery. No matter what you do, nothing is more effective than going under the good, old-fashioned knife or injecting diseases into your flesh. All you need is courage, a good doctor, and extraordinary wealth.
Now go out there and be beautiful!

Dear Dr. Ballsworth,
I am unable to move any part of my body, which has turned a bluish-white color. I also seem to be attracting flies. Can you help me?
Sincerely,
Ricky Mortis
Dear Ricky,
No one can help you because you're dead. Look into getting buried.

Dear Dr. Ballsworth,
The left cheek of my derrier is itchy. Symptom has been present for approximately 4.5 seconds. What should I do?

Have you tried scratching it? This effective treatment has been utilized for centuries by millions in nearly every culture in existence - and some imaginary cultures as well.

Dear Dr. Ballsworth,
I've been experiencing severe, chronic rage accompanied by projectile blood-vomiting and the uncontrollable urge to bite people. What's going on with me?

To Hell with Homos, Bush Cries
In a brave adherence to principle, President Bush made the courageous decision to pander to the religious fundamentalist, rather than the vile deviant, contingent of the voting populace.
Thanks to our President for lending a hand in protecting the sacred institution of marriage from the corrupting influence of gay love!

Haitians be Hatin'

U.S. Urges North Korea to End Nuclear Work
The United States will gently nudge North Korea to "get dismantlin'."

Letters to Betty
Real correspondences from actual readers.*
Dear Betty,
I heard that you recently proposed to your boyfriend and he accepted. Congratulations! Did you choose the timing because it's okay for a woman to propose on a leap year?
Sincerely,
Sheila H.
Dear Sheila,
As you can probably glean from my previous entries, I regulate my behavior according to that which is socially permissible. While I wanted to wait - as women ordinarily should - for my boyfriend to determine my property value and decide to take a wife, I discovered this pre-matrimonial loophole that enabled me, as a genetically inferior and male-dependent female, the possibility to realize my lifelong dream to have a wedding! Oh, and be married, too.
I realize that on the surface this appears the very vanguard of feminism, but I assure you no revolutionary am I. Just another woman who needed to snag a man!
love,
Betty

Imperative Interrogatives presents...
Readers' Roundtable
The Unicorn Shack answers questions plaguing our readers on a wide array of important issues.
Q: Who is Tat and why does he or she always get a tit?
TUS: A better question to ask might be "Where is this surplus of tits that may be so frivolously depleted by handouts to name-determined recipients?"
Q: What is The Unicorn Shack's stance on the Superbowl incident involving Janet Jackson and partial nudity?

Send us your information and $99.99 and we'll send you our blood-drawing kit complete with step-by-step instructions. Soon you'll have an exact replica of yourself to send on errands, assassinate pesky government officials (make sure you're seen by many in a public place while your twin is commiting the crime), or play out your most twisted, self-obsessed fantasies.

The Happy Monkey Temporary Employment Agency wants you!
Complete this questionnaire to determine your eligibility for job placement with us.
1.) Which of the following best describes you?
a.) Free-thinking revolutionary
b.) Unquestioningly acquiescent and adaptive
c.) At the service of my superiors
d.) Angry and destructive
Answer: C
Obviously, A disqualifies you immediately; we don't need that hippie crap.
B is incorrect; anyone who understands the words "acquiescent" and "adaptive" is far too intelligent to be a Happy Monkey, and would probably end up organizing a union.
And D is another no-brainer; no one likes an angry Monkey. No one.
2.) Authority figures make me feel...
a.) hungry.
b.) myself.
c.) comfortable.
d.) in my place.
Answer: D
If you chose A, you're not for us; we can't have our Monkeys eating when they should be working.
B clearly puts you in the high-risk sexual deviant zone. While we want you to be subordinate, that's not quite what we mean.
Those who choose C are too relaxed to be controlled.
3.) If I disagree with my superiors, I...
a.) hold my tongue. It is not my place to speak my mind.
b.) raise a discussion on the issue at a group meeting.
c.) send an anonynous and threatening letter to my boss.
d.) none of the above
Answer: D
You should not have opinions of your own! Our Monkeys are obedient drones unable to question their birthright.
Not satisfied with the results of this test? Need a job that bad? In these dark times, The Unicorn Shack is here for you! We're offering a 3-week course in complacency that's sure to deaden your sense of self and shape you into a desirable employee for only $299.99! Scholarships are available to those showing accelerated levels of conformity and acceptance of television-imparted realities. Please contact the administratrix for more information.
And remember, a Happy Monkey is an employed Monkey!

Why The Superbowl is Important to Me
an essay
The Superbowl is the most biggest game in the sport of American football. There are many teams who want to be in it, but only two get to play with each other or against. There is a brown ball shaped like a lemon with white stitches. I heard somebody call it a "pigskin" but it doesn't look like a pig's pink flesh. Maybe a dead pig. This is thrown from a guy to a guy and sometimes a guy or a bunch of guys jump on a guy and a whistle blows. The point or goal of the game is to get the ball to the other side and to knock over as many guys as you can.
Anyway, everybody goes to public places with TV sets to yell about the game. They pick a team to yell for and yell against the other. If their team loses, they get really drunk and scream a lot. If their team wins, they get really drunk and scream a lot.
The Superbowl is important to me because it affects a lot of people, especially people riding the subway that gets stopped or turned over or set on fire. It is also important to beer companies and the government.

TV Guidance
The networks tickle our taste for absurdly elaborate and unlikely circumstances again with Who Wants to Be a US Citizen?, the new reality TV show based on President Bush's proposed immigration legislation. See what happens when Carlos, Juan, Jorge, Diego, Mariposa, Consuela, and Julio are taken off the raft and into a two-bedroom tenement where they'll compete for a visa to work in the United States - and start getting real on camera! Who'll get deported? Who'll hook up? Find out at 8:30 Sunday nights on Fox!

MBNA Tells Me to Go Fuck Myself
SOMERVILLE, January 14 - In an unprecedented gesture of apathy, MBNA nonchalantly suggested the termination of our relationship yesterday after four long years of love, expenditures, and timely payments upon discovery of my employment status, and thereafter refused questions about the meaning of the bond we'd formed over these years, perhaps the best of my life.
"I don't know what happened," I told myself in an interview, "I thought we meant something to each other."
The courtship began in 2000 and quickly turned into a whirlwind affair. Credit limits were increased with passionate rapidity. Payments were reciprocated with many gift offers, such as a set of knives and a solar-operated radio.
"I knew something was wrong when my APR went up to 24.98%. When I confronted MB[NA] about it, they started asking questions about my household income. That never mattered to them before."
MBNA could not be reached for questioning after a 20 minute hold period.
The pain of this loss was exacerbated by the discovery of a letter from MBNA containing a pre-approved account to roommate Krista.

In the news:
The Bush administration sinks to nearly compassionate humanitarianism to procure the hispanic contingent of the vote in 2004 in its new proposed immigration legislation. Critics and proponents alike are lauding the administration for its prudence in suspending world domination and the elimination of the weak to secure a second term.
When asked about reconciling this gross inconsistency wthin an otherwise successfully draconian occupation of the United States government, a White House spokesperson said, "The illegal aliens (or shadow-dwellers) this legislation targets will never actually receive greencards 'cause-" he giggled, "because the wait period is at least six years, and guest worker status expires after six years, leading to deportation. So we've essentially designed a plan that will screw hispanics AND get their vote."

Post 153
Our weed is missing. Nicole and I had to smoke espresso grinds. It did not work.
But we did travel through time. It was a harrowing journey through the past. We ended up back at the bar last night, but could not partake in the festivities as encountering our former selves would result in a breach in the space-time continuum.
Instead we decided to utilize the obvious alibi to commit the perfect crime. However, since we couldn't decide what the perfect crime was, we stole weed from our former selves, got high in the parking lot, and passed out.
Upon waking, we realized we'd been returned to the present. Apparently, the weed nullified the time-traveling properties of smoking espresso.
But where's the weed?

Post-Christmas depression on Christmas... and you
You've hastily unwrapped all your presents and forgotten them, leaving a feeling of emptiness made possible only by months of build-up; suggestive advertising, chronic shopping, and thousands upon thousands of permutations of Jingle Bell Rock. The egg nog has gone to your head this late morning, Christmas songs are triggering your gag reflex, and you're wondering if the dearth of spirituality you feel was brought on by your anti-depressant dose or the X-Box you didn't get this year.
Well cheer up, Buckaroo! There's still lots to do on Christmas day. Here's a list of games to chase away the blues of the unfulfillable void commodity fetishism.
Holiday fun
Play with plastic bags.
The danger of suffocation is half the fun! Once you're through, you can cut them up into tiny pieces and feed them to the dog.
Cut wrapping paper up into tiny pieces and feed them to the dog.
A variation on the classic "cut up plastic bags" bit.
Have a vomiting contest.
You sure feel like it, don'tcha? Make it fun the American way, with competition! Play it safe with a toilet bowl target or go crazy with a projectile match.
Stock up on your parents' painkillers.
They always have some lying around! They can't need all of them. Why not snag a few for later while the folks are sleeping off last night's binge drinking fest?
Smoke pot until you fall unconscious.
You've always heard it could happen, now realize that dream with indulgence fit for Christmas! Get high and sleep through the rest of this excruciatingly disappointing day.
Have a great rest of Christmas and don't forget to pay your credit card bills next month!

Multiple choice question of the day
Q: Why do they always let the monkey go?
I found this line written in my notebook and can only surmise it's referring to the all too common frivolous emancipation of captive mischevious monkeys, unleashing disaster upon the unsuspecting (though perhaps deserving) populace.
Answer:
a.) Because people love monkeys, and therefore tolerate their mischief.
b.) Because people love mischief, and therefore tolerate monkeys.
c.) The movie would be pretty pointless otherwise.
d.) I want a monkey!

Craft Corner
You had Fluffy stuffed in a post-mortem moment of sentimentality, but after years of attempts at repositioning the remains in various household rooms, you've just about given up. You can't just toss it in the trash, but Fluffy has turned out to be one big feng shui failure.
Concurrently, your mom still hasn't returned your bong, borrowed almost a week ago now.
Why not ameliorate these dilemmas jointly? Make Fluffy into a bong! By adding functionality to your taxidermed critter, you can literally breathe new purpose into pets long passed. Storage becomes a cinch when Fluffy can replace your 4 foot hooka.
FAQ
Q: I don't have any marijuana. What should I do?
A: You could buy some.
Q: Isn't my stuffed pet flammable?
A: Probably.
Q: I find this highly implausible.
A: That's not a question!
Q: Do you like pudding?
A: Clearly.
