That’s probably not a horn, but a tuft of hair.

Sounds like their mane claim is in error. ;^)

The Tang Dynasty is most famous for inventing instant breakfast drinks.

I’m going for the unicorn-with-horns-on-its-butt theory. Three on each side is six - a hexacorn?

Scientists were being paid by the hour. Good money.

“The Chinese dancing horse sculpture at the museum is so lifelike that it seems to be ready to gallop off its pedestal.”
I often take claims too literally but no freaking way that horse looks anywhere near lifelike.

They spiked horse butts would go good with those chariots with the spiked wheels.

"

Wrong - Tang was invented in the USA.
.
"There's nothing like a celebrity endorsement to give your
brand that cool factor -- just ask the makers of Tang.
Astronauts drank it in space in the 1960s, and everyone
knew Astronauts were the coolest."
"Times were tough for Tang before NASA's astronauts gave it a
boost. The orange-flavored drink was invented in 1957,
and first sold in 1959 by General Foods. It wasn't a hot
seller -- after all, in America, land of abundance, did
we really need a replacement for good old orange juice?"
"Tang existed as a product for a few years before finding its
niche, in outer space. The first astronaut to bring Tang
into orbit was John Glenn, on a Mercury mission aboard
Friendship 7 in February 1962."

I actually only clicked on this because I wanted to know how long it would take for someone to post a reference to Tang the drink. It didn't take long. I'm proud of Freepers!

The assistant professor gave a withering argument.
