![[0141] Raccoon Sweet And Sour](http://www.sandraandwoo.com/comics/2010-02-25-[0141]-raccoon-sweet-and-sour.png "[0141] Raccoon Sweet And Sour")
The current story arc started with this strip: Unfavorable Comparison.
- Sandra: This recipe suggests to remove the scent glands before roasting.
- Sandra: Help me out, Woo, where exactly are your scent glands?
- Woo: OVER THERE!
- Sandra: I doubt that. Any last words?
- Woo: Have mercy! I’m just a slave of my hormones!
- Sandra: Very funny. Do you get it at all that you’ve made me the laughing stock of my class forever?!
- Woo: … C–… Can’t you say that someone else played a trick on you?
- Sandra: Pray that it will work!
- Woo: Whew, never thought that clicking on a little heart symbol could be as dangerous as stealing food out of a spring trap.

As I recall, just last week he suggested that *humans* were slaves to their hormones.

Poor Woo, ignorant to how youtube works, its all us humans’ faults (poor grammar ftw), why didn’t we make something easier for a raccoon to understand?

Woo will probably have to keep a low profile by hanging out with Shadow while Sandra cools down.

If he can use the computer and YouTube, why didn’t he just create an account?

Every one of Woo’s facial expressions is a work of PURE GENIUS.
I also love how Sandra’s apron only says “The cook” rather than “Kiss the Cook”
(You’d think that wearing an apron in a kitchen would be proof enough that she is cooking… food for thought)

hmm…i seem to recall that my dad brought a raccoon home for the purpose of roasting it. as he had only done this once and as i don’t have any negative memories tied to it, i must not have thought that raccoon meat wasn’t palatable….;)

Oh Woo, your no better than us humans; different, yes; better (as you have so graciously proved to us), no
. I LOVE Sandra’s speech bubbles, showing how her sweet voice is mixed with death. I wonder how Woo will pull this off? This is your last and only chance to save yourself!

Ya know, I’m wondering why Sandra never thought of saying “my account was hacked” before. Youtube accounts seem to be notoriously under protected.
Then again, she is 11, so that could have something to do with it.
And also the thing with the blind rage.

You know… if she had trouble knowing where the scent glands are, there’s always something else she could cut out that would solve the problem… but I’d hate to see Woo go through that.

I don’t see what removing his scent glands will accomplish. It’s another set of organs that controls/regulates the…um…urges that got Woo into his unfortunate predicament. A quick trip to the vet would solve Sandra’s problems.

You remove the scent glands before -cooking- so they don’t spoil the taste of the meat.

oops…
The first three panels are my favorites for this strip, but the whole thing is just wonderful!
I suspect panel four best reflects her long-term feelings on this episode. (Luckily for Woo.)

Oh Woo… You should know that you really shouldn’t push a button on the internet not knowing what it does. Just like one isn’t supposed to klick on textlinks without looking where they lead to.

I absolutely love Woo’s facial expressions in this comic! Also, the “Over there!” answer.
Heh, I just noticed that Sandra has the “pie eyes” that many characters had in the 1930’s.

Where did she find a recipe that includes raccoon meat, anyway?

In her haste for revenge, it doesn’t look like she’s bothered to remove the offending material from her account! Perhaps that’s for next week.
Also, the first panel would sound more natural if it read, “This recipe suggests removing the scent glands before roasting” or “This recipe says to remove the scent glands before roasting.”

Iron Ed: “You remove the scent glands before -cooking- so they don’t spoil the taste of the meat.”
I just figured that her threat to cook him was an empty one and that her real intent was to give him “The Unkindest Cut Of All”.

Poor Woo…I’d surely adopt him for the time it takes Sandra to cool down.
*Wipes a tear from his eye*
Well…um…..just give all the internet machines a password lock down, first.
@benben: I agree. It’s time we get back to Nature and Shadow for awhile.
@Pat: I suspect that Sandra had YouTube under her Favorites. Easy enough to find. It stays logged in. So, the use of a search box isn’t too tricky. Then, learn that little icon for locating stuff. Far easier then signing out, creating a new sign in and so forth.
@Mystery Penguin: Agreed. Panel #3 was so good, I thought (at first) it was the final panel. It just sounded so great for the punch line, as is.

Okay, I totally had no idea people actually eat raccoons when I commented near the top. My bad. Plus, I confused raccoons with skunks because of the mention of the scent glands. Double my bad. (Please tell me people don’t eat skunks!)
At any rate, Woo really needs his Oreos right now!

I have to disappoint you, they can (example). de facto a human can eat any animal (including humans) that is not toxic for him/her (some times he can also eat these or at least parts of these (globefish for example)). There are only ethical or cultured limits – but the differ from country to country (most indians would never eat cow for example).
)
But most people would not eat skunk or raccon of corse (luck for Woo and us

Skunks…sheesh. Sometimes being a vegetarian sounds refreshing.
