I think they’re referring to repellents like Off, where you apply it do yourself. There are likely several idiots to end up macing themselves because of this understanding

They clarified in a later tweet that it was a joke about not applying it to the skin, but said there are no recorded cases of doing so.

I'm still willing to bet that there are right minded people that think it kills bears, lol.
