Invisible Pink Unicorn

2 questions:

A. Is there some festival or holiday celebrating the IPU that occurs in December?
2. Is there some traditional display or decoration you can put next to the creche display on the courthouse lawn for this holiday/festival?

A salt lick sprinkled with glitter?

If this unicorn is invisible, how can it also be pink? It seems like if it’s invisible, it is no colour.

Why stop with IPU? Surely the Flying Spaghetti Monster is just as deserving.

Considering the kind of answers this is bound to get, I think it’s better suited to MPSIMS than GQ.

We have faith that they are pink; we logically know that they are invisible because we can’t see them.

And that’s why, kids, when Jesus rode an Invisible Pink Unicorn, no one noticed it.

And that’s why, when your daddy added one to the manger scene in front of The Cathedral of Our Lady of Inevitable Disenchantment, no one could see it, not even the policeman who had to let him go after tasing him.

You must open your mind to encompass her invisible pinkness. Meditation might help. I offer classes - only $500 an hour.

In the early days of the IPU pineapple pizza was often mentioned, though my faith was not strong enough to choke that down - and I like gefilte fish.

The holidays honoring the Invisible Pink Unicorn are marked on every calendar in existence. In invisible pink ink.

That’s why calendars are always $2 more than you think they should be.

I used to work in the printing industry, and invisible pink ink ain’t cheap.

And easily lost if not put back where it belongs.

Although we do have faith that they are pink, I must point out that it is written in the Sacred OP that they are pink. So although you and I both love the same invisible pink unicorn, agree on the fact of pinkness, and even share the reasoning behind the fact, there exists a subtle doctrinal difference between how we express our beliefs.

DIE, HERETIC!!!

Perhaps a garden gnome or fairy could be added to the municipal crèche, to subtly include IPU in the public display.

so-called “facts” are for the weak-willed faithless.

Isn’t the IPU already in every public display?

Unicorns only turn pink when they are embarrased. Additionally when embarrassed Unicorns are rendered invisible.

I hesitate to mention this since I thought everyone knew that.

You could always try and honor other Christian cultures by adding to the display a traditional crèche figurine from Catalonia – the “caganer”.

Look for “caganer” in Google :slight_smile: You won’t be disappointed!

(For those who are wary of googling something unknown because somebody else tells them to: the “caganer” is a traditional crèche figurine from Catalonia that shows a guy crouching down and shitting. This is to express the concept that "Christ might come at any moment, when you least expect it. Yes, even when you’re doing number two in the toilet. In Catalonia there will always be a “caganer” somewhere in any crèche display. People will be looking for it, as if it were a version of “where’s Waldo?”. In 2005 the city hall of Barcelona decided not to include a “caganer” in the municipal crèche display and there was a flood of complaints from people. They ended up having to include one).

I think I’ve seen one of these in the Christmas Neapolitan creche at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC, but the last time I went, I couldn’t find him.

He was replaced by an invisible guy. To clean up after the unicorn.

We used to have a monkey in the crèche in our front room. He originally came from the Fisher Price Circus Train, but took to hanging by his tail from the roof of the stable…until one day he simply disappeared.
I assume now that he must be riding the unicorn…but the cats still remain prime suspects.
