Frank, we've been friends a long time and I really need to talk to you about your hygiene.  You have an odor and people are starting to talk about it.  No it doesn't matter, its not their problem, its yours.  You need to shower and clean up before you interact with others, its not just acceptable, its courteous.  I've known you forever dude, I tell you this because your my (friend/amigo/compadre (whatever you normally use)).  I have only the best in mind for you, and to be honest, it has been a little unbearable in the car lately too.  So what do you say?  Five minutes in the shower is all I'm asking.As for the sleeping over on gaming nights, our whole group does that and none of get the chance to shower the next day, HOWEVER, we all make sure to be clean the BEFORE we get there to lessen the gamer funk the day of. (We arrive the night before and then game the following morning.)  On those nights that he sleeps over, just make sure he brings some clothes and toiletries, if not, get some just for him to keep in the guest room so that he gets the hint.</blockquote>
