This is a question Saying the Unsayable

Freddie Woo tugged our coat and asked: Have you ever had to tell someone they had BO? Had to break dreadful news to somebody? Tell us how you broke through the cringe barrier

B.O.G.O.F
i have 2 tales for you today, the first of which sees me on the receiving end.

15 years ago, i was in the habit of going to town of a weekend with ronnie, a mate of mine at the time. one saturday, he announced that he'd invited a new friend to come out with us, and we'd be picking him up on the way into town.
we arrived at this new friend's house to find him waiting outside. he hopped in the back of the car and introductions were made.
without so much as a pause, he turned to me and said "wow, aren't you fat?"
apart from the fact i could hardly deny it, it was quite refreshing to have someone say it and get it out of the way, rather than avoid the issue. so, i simply replied "yes. yes i am."
we've been best friends ever since!


about a year ago, i was shopping in asda when i spotted the poor unfortunate woman halfway down the aisle. she seemed oblivious to the people staring at her and whispering and, as not one of them had the decency to tell her, i felt it was up to me to help the poor creature.
fighting the urge to simply walk away, i approached her and said, as quietly and subtly as i could, "excuse me, you've got your skirt tucked into your knickers."
