a serious question

what would you do if a good friend of yours had awful breath? like probably full-blown halitosis? i'm in situations where said friend and i need to be close to hear each other.. i don't want to become friend's personal gum dispenser, either. suggestions??

boys in ny, i dunno where the idea to wear skinny jeans and flips flops (or thongs as the aussies say, heh) together came from, but just stop it. do not want! ugly and bad and unflattering.
