    I am so confudsed… Do children put unicorns into a shed on the solstice? (isn’t that what “shedded” means?) And why aren’t the candles rainbow-jizz colored?

    and if this person is going to make past-tense verbs by adding “-ed” to other verbs, why aren’t the horns grinded and maded into this magical scent?

    Yeah, if unicorns shed their horns, they should be sold as dildos, not shredded up and put in candles. But that wouldn’t be homemade

    Magical
    Mystical
    Waaa laaa! (And all other incorrect spelling variations)
    Vagina
    Vulva
    Uterus
