It almost ruined the film for me, I was leaning so far into my other side ... thank christ that seat was empty. But it was almost fecal in smell ... disgusting, and every so often he would yawn .... F*CK ... would knock a Bombay sewar worker out. At the end of the film, his mates came up to him to ask what he thought of the film - they had sat rows in front of him !!! - you would think he would have gotten the hint. And this was a young guy too.

I think it's best to use once or twice a week, in co junction with regular brushing, not twice daily.

Bigbagofcans wrote: » Would you be able to tell a close friend/colleague that their breath stinks? It's gotten to the stage where when we meet as a group that I have to minimise contact with a friend because her foul-smelling breath is too much to take. Even the offer of chewing gums has done nothing to stifle the stench.
