This reminds me of an old joke:
Stosh and his American cousin Joe were on the beach ogling all the girls. Stosh asked Joe how he could make himself more attractive to the girls so they'd talk to him. Joe told Stosh: "Next time we come to the beach, stuff a potato inside your trunks. The girls will love it!"
So, the next time Stosh goes to the beach, he puts a potato in his swim trunks. But everytime he tries to talk to a girl, she makes a face and turns away. When he finds his cousin Joe on the beach, Stosh asks him: "Joe, I did what you told me to do. I put a potato in my swim trunks, but I can't get any girls to talk to me." Joe looks Stosh over and says: "Stosh, next time, try putting the potato in front!"
