Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for October 23, 2016
Transcript:
Marigold: Is that the same game you were playing yesterday? Phoebe: Yup! Marigold: I am surprised you have not won it yet. Phoebe: You don't actually "win" Animal Talking. You mainly just meet the locals, who are all talking animals. Then you hang out with them. Marigold: Now I am jealous. Phoebe: The animals in the game never let me sit on them so you're still cooler.

All those animals in panel 4, and none of them are from Ozy and Millie? Why?

Thatās quite a compliment Marigold. So, Animal Talking is basically Phoebeās version of Animal Crossing. If you want to talk to animals, you should ask Luke Tritonā¦ oh wait, heās from another game.

I wonder if Phoebe has been āanimal talkingā with Dakota without realizing it again?

OK, small rant. We have become an incredibly rude and self-absorbed society when we ignore present friends for electronic devises or who in essence DUMP present friends, activities and conversations by answering calls or texts whenever they present themselves. Much more so by playing games, PHOEBE!!! Nobody wants to be dumped or to admit to dumping friends, but thatās what we do every time we choose a devise over a friend who is right in front of us. We cheapen ourselves, each other and our friendships by doing this. YECH!

And btw ā shame on you, Phoebe, for treating Marigoldās feelings so lightly when sheās been such a good friend to you!

At least Phoebe isnāt playing that game where you capture wild animals so they can live in small balls and come out to fight other animals to entertain humans.

Iām left to wonder what Phoebe gets out of a game like that. Itās not very escapist.

Phoebe, you want to convince Marigold sheās still way cooler, just find the magical Skritch Spot. Start with right between the earsā¦ \:-)

haha, i talk to animals in the forest all the time. mostly birds are the only ones who talk back.
Some things that birds around here say: (and iām not making this up!):
āPhoebe 3333āāTalk to Phoebeā (^^I guess those are Phoebe?)
Thereās another bird that says āBritney Spears bird, Iām a Britney Spears bird, Britney Spears birdā(^^So, i guess that one is a Britney Spears bird??)
There are other ones that say āChiiā(^^Obviously, a Chii, or they just got it from watching Chobits)
Take care of yourself! :P
