To start with you would drop subtle hints about hygiene and cleanliness if that didn't work you could make up a story about an old work colleague who had problems with body odour.
Dick comes from the old school of policework, shoot first ask questions later, thats probably why he got fired.

In the real world, no, never.
I disagree. There are some people in this world, and some situations, where the only thing that's going to work is to hit them where it hurts the most.
I'm sure it will shock most of you to know that I have had to be brutally honest with a few people in my lifetime.

Fuck that, the only people I sugar coat it for is kids and people with special needs...if they can't handle it then they obviously belong in one of the aforementioned groups.
That's not being obnoxious; being obnoxious is knowing there is no real need to say anything at all but saying it anyway.
