Two awkward things:
The guy in the local shop has extreme BO: like when you walk in, you wince (and my sense of smell is terribly feeble). Should I tell him?
Number 2: Walking behind a girl at the tube, her skirt is hitched in her knickers, so her bum's out: does a guy tell a girl this or should he not have noticed in the first place?
Any more |  |

If one or both of these don't lead to a TWTD classic response then you're all slacking. |  |

I'd definitely tell the girl she smells of BO but there's no chance I'd shop if bossman wears a skirt. |  |

Both are real btw - the girl thing last week and I'm just back from the shop to buy my grab back of cheese and onion walkers. | |

I think it might be too late to tell the girl her arse is hanging out! |  | | |

1) buy him some deodorant in the shop and hand it to him, smile and say 'a gift, my pleasure'
2) Gently stick your hand down her knickers and discretely remove her skirt from it. Hopefully she won't notice, but if she does, smile and say 'a gift, my pleasure' |  | | |

I need to know for the next time - weirdly, this happened once before. | |

Somebody has probably told her by now. |  | | |

If they were big granny pants tell her. If they were tiny skimpy ones, hold back and assume that someone else will tell her.
Can’t you shop elsewhere? |  | | |

1) Don't tell the bloke in the local shop; his BO is probably keeping away customers, and if he gets rid of it you'll end up stuck in a queue next time you're buying your crisps.
2) Ask the nearest woman to tell the girl at the tube about her skirt; she'll be less embarrassed than if you tell her, and even more so if it's ignored and other people end up seeing. Plus, if you ignore it, later in the day she'll probably be thinking "That bloke who walked past me must have a good time eyeing up my arse, and never said anything, What a perv" |  |

They were those inbetweenie ones - granny tops - skimpy lower = arse out. *
I like the shop - he's a nice man and his stuff is cheap: 4-pack Fosters for under £5 - hard to beat these days (at least from a corner shop)
*Edit: not that I studied them too carefully- honest. [Post edited 8 May 15:02]

A variant on (1)
Buy deodorant. When he says that'll be £1.99 hand over a fiver and say cheers, have one yourself. |  | | |

You will shortly be joining him in the BO stakes then. Cheese and onion crisps stink. |  | | |

The proper stinky ones were the scampi and lemon nik naks. Yummy though. | | | |

There’s this bloke I know who likes to dress up in women’s clothes but often has his skirt tucked in his Yfronts, he also has terrible BO from cheese and onion crisp addiction but worse of all he supports a really crap footie team
Should I say anything to him? |  |

Probably a bit late to deal with it now. But my Dad used to retell a Jethro joke that went something along these lines:
Old Sid went to church one week and the woman in front of him got up to sing and her skirt was tucked into her knickers. So Sid leant forward and untucked it for her. She turned round and smacked him across the face.
Well, the following week Sid went back to the same church and sat in the same place. When he got up to sing the same girl in front of him had done the same again with her skirt. The bloke next to him leant forward and untucked it for her. Well Sid knew she didn't like that so he leant forward and tucked it back in!
Sid now has 2 black eyes! |  |

Sadly, most football supporters will spend their lives following a team that never wins anything at all...but as the old saying goes, it's not the winning, it's the taking part so just have to learn to embrace that (perhaps some commemoration of notable participations might be an idea?)
