[QUOTE=Am I Really?;27585532]It's not bad for you to swallow it.[/QUOTE] That's not what I'm saying, I mean it's better to spit it into a napkin or a garbage can than to stick it underneath a table

[QUOTE=J4censolo;27585559]That's not what I'm saying, I mean it's better to spit it into a napkin or a garbage can than to stick it underneath a table[/QUOTE] Better? Maybe from your pov. If you swallow it its gone and you no longer need to deal with it, same with a trash can. But if you put it into a napkin you have to hold onto it until you trash it.

[QUOTE=Nightsure;27585737]Some of your stomach acid has probably dissolved SOME of it. Stomach acid is pH2, very powerful.[/QUOTE] Yep, you're 10.

Trash bins works wonder with gums, get your fat ass up and drop it in the trash.

[QUOTE=Rusty100;27585360]You're not supposed to swallow gum. It stays inside you for a years or something.[/QUOTE] Fool of a Took. The human stomach can dissolve bone. It goes through ye like water. It's just not nice to do it that's all. [editline]22nd January 2011[/editline] Besides, if it did stay inside you for three years it would have been banned because it would cause an intestinal obstruction.

what if he wasn't unappreciated

I have one of those shit jobs, and I've never had anyone be nice to me like that.

I had a maths teacher that did a whole lesson about chewing gum.

[editline]22nd January 2011[/editline] To contribute more, while swallowing your gum isn't anyone's problem (except yours) people who put it under tables/dump it on pavement cause trouble for say the local council. When it's been left for even a few weeks it costs a significant amount of money to remove it, which is why you can just at the least wrap it round in the foil you get and dump it on the floor, just to remove the inconvenience of putting money into getting rid of it.

[QUOTE=Rusty100;27585360]You're not supposed to swallow gum. It stays inside you for a years or something.[/QUOTE] No, you shit it out like everything else. What happens to the gum after it has gone through the sewers is a different story though. [editline]22nd January 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Am I Really?;27586139]Oh boy!

[QUOTE=DaMoggen;27584357]Most people got no fucking respect.[/QUOTE] Too true.

op the thing about good deeds, is that you're not supposed to post on the internet about them, I don't think your purpose was to inspire us as much as reap our compliments.

[editline]22nd January 2011[/editline] Yeah so you can put it in a bin on your next toilet trip in the restaurant.[/QUOTE] A pH of 2 is relatively weak. A pH of -1 is "Very powerful". Anyone who doesn't realise that has never studied chemistry past an extremely simplified level.

[QUOTE=Mvwill;27586977]op the thing about good deeds, is that you're not supposed to post on the internet about them, I don't think your purpose was to inspire us as much as reap our compliments.[/QUOTE] True, but at least it's better than not doing it at all. Provided he actually did it and didn't just make it up.

That's a really nice thing to do man, I know from experience (not in the gum scraping industry, thankfully) that little acts of kindness like that go a long way in making people's days that little bit better. I remember once I was in a restaraunt in New York, just a small family one. They served me one of the best steak dianes I've ever had the pleasure of tasting. At the end of the meal when we were all putting together our tips and whatnot I pulled out a pen and wrote on a napkin [I]"This was the best steak I've had in a long time, I wanted to settle down and have babies with it!"[/I] and slipped it in with the money. As we were walking out a waitress came up to me with the biggest smile and thanked me so sincerely that I was actually quite moved. I didn't think a simple thank you could have done that much. I felt awesome for the rest of the day.

The card might come off as a bit condescending, though.

Ah, so you were the one who left the note for me! Thank you very much!

[QUOTE=Nightsure;27585423]Yeah, it takes years for it to decompose. Most parents say it wraps round your heart or some shit to get you to put it in the bin.[/QUOTE] How would gum that's been deposited in your stomach get to your heart?

[QUOTE=J4censolo;27585105] It's like brushing your teeth then proceeding to drink orange juice.[/QUOTE] Dear sweet lord I hate that taste.

i have scraped gum off the bottom of tables before at school. i volunteered for it. it was actually slightly fun. but we flipped the tables over and used paint scrapers to scrape it off. not as fun as removing stapes from walls though. that was the best. (no sarcasm intended.)

"Dear Gum Remover Guy...." *opens* "They're coming for you."
