So I was walking into a store in Washington D.C. when I was 16 or 17 and these junior high girls were going by, one of them said while passing, "Excuse me Mr. Skunk!" and they kept going. Of course I felt insulted and was laughed at by my company, as she was referring to my hair-bleaching design which I guess was a blond stripe down the back.
When i was littler the nature center in Arlington where I grew up had a skunk wandering around the building with its scent glands removed.
Do you know what skunk cabbage is? Again when I was a lot littler someone demonstrated its pungency by some as we walked past it and waving its stem under my nose
