I think Irina was joking. :-) The joke is in the ambiguity. Is it:
A one-eyed one-horned flying purple eater of people
A one-eyed one-horned flying eater of purple people
A one-eyed one-horned eater of flying purple people
A one-eyed eater of one-horned flying purple people or
An eater of one-eyed one-horned flying purple people?
:-)
