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.

Not just bad either, vomit-inducing, appetite-destroying-bad. It's their defense mechanism from large things with sharp teeth that haven't eaten in 24h. The smell stays on you and anything the liquid touches for weeks. Burn the clothes, wait for new skin cells to replace the existing ones. Pray it isn't on something like your car or place of residence.

We have a skunk that roams around our back yard. Our dog got within a foot of it once, luckily didn’t get spayed. I can tell when he’s outside, just the lingering odor of their spray fills the entire outdoors. It is incredible how potently disgusting their actual spray is.
