Dear Grocery store manager,
I was so mad last week when I went to the grocery store! I can’t believe you are still selling unicorn meat, they are magical creatures who deserve to live! In addition they should live so that they can repopulate the earth so they aren’t just a fantasy myth! In conclusion stop selling this!
P.S. Where do the unicorns live?
……
Dear Lady,
So what if they are magic! They taste like the heavens and I’m not going to stop selling this!
THE END.
