Capital Summertime Ball 2024

Do you tell people if they reek?

I've told one of my friends before and someone at work today, but they're okay with it if you let them know. I don't like people who refuse to tell the person then go and slag them off for smelling.

my brother smells. i just tell him and then he gets stroppy. its like well if you want to go on smelling

[Emma]

Yeah you don't get anywhere if you don't tell them!

[Kelly]

I properly stink right now. I need a shower, so I think I'll do that in a bit. I have walked 5 miles in the boiling hot sun, so it's justified!

[Emma]

Haha yeah, everyone always comes out of exams stinking like pole cats.

[Eyl9]

Haha yeah, everyone always comes out of exams stinking like pole cats.

Nice.

It is horrid being in an exam and there is a horrid smell lingering about. Ugh.

[Guest]

I tell them in a nice way though. I might look like a right b*stard but I don't care. B.O is disgusting and getting a waft of cheesy smelling armpit everyday isn't worth keeping schtum about.

Poor Aled got told on air this morning. Chris said to him that it's no good spraying dedorant over your BO. Hmm I wonder who decided to call being smelly "BO" anyway - was it some advertising exec?

[Ema]

Yeah you don't get anywhere if you don't tell them!

Emma, is that an Emma I spy? :shock:

There was a guy sat infront of me in the english exam last week who smelt urgh

It is!

Hey mate!

Haha yeah it's awful in exams...confined space...argh!

[Eyl9]

I know it's discusting. Ugh, as if exams weren't bad enough

[Ross]

We have someone at work who is new and he stinks i cant stand next to him and i end up gagging its horrible like he dont even bother to shower!

[Eyl9]

I don't understand it myself. There is a boy in my year and he always smells, constantly and it's not just a little, it's like stale sweat. It's rank.

I don't see why you would feel comfortable like that.

Possibly. We must'n't dwell too much on such trifling matters though I think...

[goldengirl]

I think your all pretty brave! I'd never be able to say that to anyone I'd be too scared I would offend them! I think I'd be more likely to spray on some deodorant myself saying how it was soooooo hot then maybe offer them a spray too! ha ha

Thanks to wikipedia this is allegegy why: Bromhidrosis or body odor (also called bromidrosis, osmidrosis and ozochrotia) is the smell of bacteria growing on the body.

*Thinks hes should be doing work rather than looking up irrelevant crap on t'internet*

I would tell them as gently as possible or you could just gift wrap a can of lynx africa, shower gel with a tag saying use it
