Talk:1702: Home Itch Remedies

Taking a hot (enough) shower is actually a remedy as it denatures the proteins causing the itching. 162.158.86.131 14:14, 4 July 2016 (UTC)

Why don't you add that in the explanation? It would help. 108.162.218.83 14:17, 4 July 2016 (UTC)

I think it's important to mention that Cueball's remedy starts off plausible but gets steadily more complicated. (So I've done so.) 108.162.249.161 18:25, 6 July 2016 (UTC)

Chiggers are not spiders. Stealth101 (talk) 15:50, 4 July 2016 (UTC)

Changed spider to chigger. Chiggers may itch like the devil, but are nowhere as severe as spiders. Monolith (talk) 15:59, 4 July 2016 (UTC)

Somehow, I was expecting the explanation of the remedy to take so long that Megan got distracted away from the itch, or something. After all, the folk remedy I heard most is “Don't think about it.” 141.101.104.104 (talk) (please sign your comments with ~~~~)

This explanation in its current form misses one of the best jokes of the piece: Cueball's comment that it "sounds effective". Seems to me that he's under the genuine belief that Megan's 'home remedy' is effective, simply because it's a home remedy. Solid meta-humour. 141.101.98.119 17:35, 4 July 2016 (UTC)

What? No Juno? 108.162.215.238 20:55, 4 July 2016 (UTC)

It'll probably be there tomorrow. he's had jokes for New Horizons, Voyager 1, etc.. I don't see why he would exclude Juno. 108.162.218.142 15:27, 5 July 2016 (UTC)

Anyone else think there is a pun in the title text in home remedy, since the remedy involves changing where your home is. Tharkon (talk) 21:53, 4 July 2016 (UTC)

Yes Tharkon. Totally agree Plm-qaz snr (talk) 23:31, 4 July 2016 (UTC)
