You will be punished.

Will the punishment involve seeing you in your punderwear?

You're right. It's pundamental.

I'll have to punder that one.

Oh, you've all punctured my ego

Well, I did expect more of the latter reactions than the 1st few reviews, which were generally positive. Although I would point out that the character is a "Super Skunk" so there are more realms of possibility than what your pet can do e.g. in the Batman film people generally don't ask how the Joker can rig up half the city with oil drums without anyone noticing.

Thanks for the comments anyhow, it's good to know what goes down well and what bombs

This stopped being punny a long time ago.

Oh, it's you - the one who started it all. You created a Punster.

Changed it around a bit based on comments. If it wasn't contrived before...

2 STONERS SMOKING SPLIFFS BY RVER, THAMES BARRIER VISIBLE IN BACKGROUND. ONE IS READING A PAPER. HEADLINE READS "SUPER SKUNK FLOODS LONDON."

STONER 1:
Mate, take a look at this.

STONER 2: (READS)
Dude, we gotta get our hands on some of this S**t!

STONER 1:
I think I'm tripping again, what the hell is that?

SEE BARRIER COLLAPSE IN DISTANCE, WAVE SWEEPS TOWARDS THEM.
DREAM-LIKE SEQUENCE (HAZY SCREEN). FLY-PAST OF A SKUNK IN A CLOAK. A VAPOUR CLOUD TRAILS BEHIND, FILLS THE SCREEN.

SMOKE CLEARS. NOW STONERS ARE SOAKED, STRANDED ON TOP OF BIG BEN

STONER 1:
Wow! That was some skunk! I've never been so high!

TOWER STARTS TO CREAK AND LEAN

STONER 2:
I'm not looking forward to coming down though

And a budget version Based on Bussell's idea:

CLOSE UP OF A NEWSPAPER. HEADLINE READS "SUPER SKUNK HITS LONDON."

GRADUALLY CAMERA ZOOMS OUT, REVEALING A MAN DRESSED IN A SKUNK SUIT AND A CLOAK WITH A "SS" ON IT. JAMES BROWN "SEX MACHINE." SKUNK IS DANCING TO THE MUSIC, WHILST SMOKING. STONERS WATCHING ADMIRINGLY.

or:

MONTAGE OF SKUNK IN CLUBS, AT MAJOR TOURIST ATTRACTIONS, ETC

I think your first one was best, infact with out too much explanation alot of people will go, Super Skunk oh yeh I get it!

Agree with sootyj.

Also, you would need permission from Westminter council to destroy Big Ben.

Or failing that they can just try and work out how a skunk could possibly do it.

Damn!

The aliens on Doctor Who never asked for permission.

But they're Slitheen interstellar gypsies basically.
