I hate gum.

All gum. It disgusts me as do people who chew gum all the time like goddamn cows. Those dessert gums are the worst. They make me want to vom just thinking about them.

There are only two gums I've ever liked, Fruit Stripe and those tiny little colorful chicklets, and I haven't had either in years.

It's so gross!!

I have too many fillings to consider chewing gum any more.

I sorta have gum phases where I will be all about gum for a while like some bratty schoolgirl and then during other phases of my life I don't understand wtf I was thinking during the gum phases

Underrated otm. Sometimes I like to chew that gum while drinking orange-creme seltzer from polar, and pretend I am a creamsicle.

The seltzer I can get behind (had some again last night - SO GOOD) but gum is just the worst. It sort of blows my mind that people chew it. If anyone ever offers me some I'm always taken aback like "Fuck no, why would I want some of that?". Mints and other small hard candy type things I can get behind but not gum.

"you said you would quit"
"look if I am only doing it late at night I don't see how it's your business"
"the sound of your horrible smack-smacking carries all the way up the stairs, divorce imo"
"omg"

haha yesterday night my gf had gum and I made her give me some cause why not, it's gum, then she got mad at how loud I was chewing it so I was like "fine whatever" and spit it out, then I got mad about how loud she was chewing it but I didn't say anything. good story I know.

i mourn the loss of both beemans and black jack gum thx to them being urban outfittered to death. idk about the clove stuff tho, that stuff is weird.

will also rep for old school bubble yum grape.

bubble yum is a joke, the flavor lasts like 10 seconds

iatee, Thursday, 8 March 2012 20:48 (twelve years ago) link

fuck that early 80s bubble yum was loaded with endless flavor, u kids these days just dont have any luck

Thu'um gang (jjjusten), Thursday, 8 March 2012 20:49 (twelve years ago) link

maybe time just felt like it lasted longer before the internet age

Ha. I don't think that's why.

wolf kabob (ENBB), Friday, 9 March 2012 03:59 (twelve years ago) link

I chew like 15 sticks a day. I like the flavor called "rain".

Jeff, Friday, 9 March 2012 04:18 (twelve years ago) link

I chew pitch gum.

tanuki, Friday, 9 March 2012 04:24 (twelve years ago) link

chewing is fine if it's once in awhile
It stops you from smoking and brightens your smile

calstars, Friday, 9 March 2012 04:42 (twelve years ago) link

btw blueberry hubba bubba ftw

calstars, Friday, 9 March 2012 04:42 (twelve years ago) link

cant believe iatee chews sweetmint, gross

johnny crunch, Friday, 7 February 2014 14:50 (ten years ago) link

that's double what you were doing in march 2012. xp to jeff.

i don't mind gum for a couple of minutes but then i get bored of it and then there's the entire disposal process to go through so i only very rarely accept gum from profferers and i never buy it.

estela, Friday, 7 February 2014 14:55 (ten years ago) link

i've always wondered what the flavor of bubble gum actually is -- like, the trad pink bubble gum flavor. what is that? is it a natural substance or was it invented to flavor chewing gum?

i like gum. RIP chewels.

My gum chewing has definitely increased. I get dry mouth and a scratchy throat a lot so it helps in that regards.

Jeff, Friday, 7 February 2014 15:11 (ten years ago) link

Xylitol gum good for the toofos iirc
