The bot appears to be down, so it’s now up to me again like in the old days to post new xkcd comics here. :D

As always, you are permitted to call one person for guidance, but that person must be a grandparent.

    No… I know of skunks from the cartoon Pépé the Skunk, but I never really reconnected that with reality, as in, they smell bad IRL, that’s not just a cartoon thing. So that prevented me from identifying the xkcd being about grandma’s remedies.

      they smell bad IRL

      They smell about as bad as a feral cat. What they do is they make you smell bad if you scare them.
