How come no one told me they were giving out smudges?

Forreal! If I got a smudge as I walked into work then it might make the day a bit better and less monotonous.

I need some smudging. Most likely will after I’m done with work

That’s a different kind of smudging, and those are clearly not doing me any good. I need a good clean spiritual smudge.
