Moth Balls Suit

Dear Dr. K.,

Every thanksgiving my Uncle “Harry” [name changed for privacy] comes over in his old smelly suit.  His suit smells like moth balls.  It makes me gag.  Can I tell him, Hey Uncle “Harry”, your suit smells like moth balls.

Signed,

Incensed.

Dear Incensed,

The best part about Thanksgiving dinner is the smell of all that wonderful food. So yes, definitely tell him he smells like balls, but don’t make this a private conversation. He is ruining Thanksgiving for everybody, so make sure you say it loud so the everybody can hear because I’m sure there are more people in the room that want him to know he smells like balls. This way you turn out to be the hero of Thanksgiving and he turns out to be the turkey of Thanksgiving. Now on every Thanksgiving, everybody will be giving thanks to you and you alone for getting rid of the old ass uncle who smells like balls every year.

Dr. K.
