Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for December 12, 2013

Transcript:
Marigold: It is said... "She who shall be-ring a unicorn shall RULE THE WORLD." Phoebe: Aw, I don't wanna have to rule the stupid world. Marigold: One unicorn says it. No one believes her or anything.
We already know the world is about 25,000 miles around. It would take forever to get an exact measurement with a ruler, especially with the oceans in the way.
According to myth, putting a gold halter on a unicorn allows one to rule the unicorn. I think the gold ring has something to do with unicorn mating rituals.
I need to find me a Unicorn, to anybody who finds one, I shall give him a position of Great Power in my Gov’t without all that pesky Responsibility, & if you try to Be-ring a Unicorn before I, I Will Eat You.

Clever girl. Why would she want to rule the world and take full responsibility for our actions?

But I want a world ruled by Phoebe! Or me. Well now Saturday’s strip has context.
Things to do as ruler of the word:
1. You get a unicorn! and You get a unicorn! and You get a unicorn! and …
2. all of my fav TV shows come back for one more season.
3. Fix DC comics, Marvel, Nintendo etc
5. rearrange who gets paid what so money goes to the deserving and not the over paid.
6. reform every thing that doesn’t work right (my way) (schools, government, TV, fashion, customs, etc)
7. The Spanish language is replaced by Goblin its easier to learn and more fun to say.
8. fill the world with art, plants, animals and fund genetic research to crate my own original animal combinations
9. My Spelling is the ONLY spelling! take that squigely red underline !
and 10 magically undo diseases and mental problems .

As long as the pay is good and I don’t actually have to fix any problems, ruling the world might be a good gig.

I agree with Phoebe, who wants to rule the world? I have enough trouble ruling my own little world.

I agree with Phoebe, it doesn’t worth to rule this world, I know by experience.

I thought the song said “Everybody Wants to Rule the World?”

Maybe Marigold said that no one believes the prophecy because her sister Florence said it…

Another theory it could be ruler of the unicorn world. One Be-ringed to rule them all.

Could this be a Lord of the Rings reference? One ring to rule them all.
