Well, I had to say it, but someone is going to have to burst his bubble. At first someone should pull him to the side and tell him his own faults and tell him to stop picking out other people's faults, and if that doesn't work, do it in front of the entire class so he gets a taste of his own medicine, but don't be persistant about it, don't bully him, once should be enough and if that doesn't work, ignore him. All he really wants is attention, if you ignore him, he'll see that no one cares for his stupid comments and that hes not funny.
MAd Love,
Victoria

You need to tell him that bragging and being annoying isn't going to get him anywhere. You need to show him that there's no point in making fun of everyone. And about the pants, just tell him he needs to get more pants. This boy must be really insecure and shouldn't be making fun of anyone else and he needs to pick on himself. Hope I helped :)

LOL... O.K. I've been in this same situation... twice. But they were girls. Why don't you suggest something to him? (Not that that would work but... try it) Suggest some kind of body wash or something. Go to him and KINDLY say "I don't mean to be rude but... you have body oder so could you please wash yourself more often?" or something like that. Make sure it's kind because people like that get their feelings hurt easily, even though they have a really easy time hurting OTHER peoples feelings. Best of luck.

OK, he is begging for attention. This is a sure sign that he is extrememly insecure and doesn't expect anyone to like him to begin with. To make things easier he's making sure that no one does while also ensuring that he at least has noteriety. I'm not sure you can make him quit. You could ignore him, but that could just make him worse. Guys like this usually end up into drugs and worse, but some can prove to be really nice, smart and fun to hang around if you treat them well. I've always gotten along great with people like this. I just treat them like they aren't doing anything weird, although I have been known to tell them when they're being gross. Acceptance tends to calm them down because it's not what they're expecting. As to the lack of clothing change and smelling funny, that can be anything from part of his act to serious problems at home. Ignore it. It will either improve or not. The boy has problems and there is no easy answer, but I've told you what I do with people like that. So far in my 31 years it's been the best means of dealing with most everyone. I have many fond memories of my freaky friends from jr and high school. They certainly made my life more interesting. Luck!

id say repay the favour.. the only way a guy like that will ever learn if you are rude to him.. make fun of him.. spray him with girly deoderant.. and if he asks why ur being so mean.. the explain to him that that is what it has felt like to be you for the past 6 months :P

panther_grl03 answered Monday January 3 2005, 10:52 am:
Maybe, its because he is knew that he is acting like that. Try to be friends with him. If that doesn't work, somebody is going to have to flat out tell him the impact he has on everybody: in the most constructive way possible. Things will probably simmer down once he gets used to the place, so in the meantime, try to be patient with him.

Lots of Luck,
Ann
