Oh, no, NOT funny!!!
Makes the eyes water and the nose run, even!
I live in the country, and you never can be sure when one may appear and grace you with their "pre-scents". The smell will eventually fade, but just be glad it wasn't a direct hit on your dog, who then came in the house and laid on the carpet or couch, before you could stop them.

My Dad and his cousin used to trap for furs in the early 1920's, as kids. One morning, on the way to school, they had caught a skunk in a trap. It was a one room school, in the winter, and snow on the ground. They had to stay outside and the teacher passed their lessons out to them that day, and my Grandmother made Dad eat his dinner out on the porch, and then burned his clothes. Even tomato juice didn't get rid of the smell on them for days, as that is what we use to kill the odor on country dogs.
