Am I sure I got the right gum? How many different kinds of Icebreakers Ice Cubes Raspberry Sorbet sugar free gum are there? If there is more than one, it's possible, I guess.

I will grant you that it's smoother than most gum. But your one most favorite thing? You must have had a sad week.

O, are you sure you got the right gum? Perhaps you asked the shady guy behind the 7-11 counter for the crystal meth/crack gum and he gave you something else entirely (in which case I heartily recommend you go see one of those doctors you hate so much and get your stomach pumped?)

O, are you sure you have good taste (Im very dubious now that I've heard about your 'utter crap' Flashdance review.)?

O, are you sure you haven't been swayed or induly influenced by Mr. Poo Poo himself, Genghis? That guy is more negative than an anode. Stay away from him ... it's worse than being trifled with.

O, are you sure you didn't realize that you were merely putting a piece of gum in your mouth? I mean, sure, I knew there was a risk that my 'party in your mouth' description and 'crystal meth' analogy had the potential to create unrealistic expectations, but I did throw in the stuff about farts and I figured that people would realize that this was merely gum I was talking about, not even sugar gum, and certainly not anything as potentially life-changing as a 95-minute Jennifer Beals-starring, infectious dancing, pursuing-your-dream-at-all-costs, fucking brilliant epic.

I think in honor of you, O, the next time I chew on a piece of this gum, I'm going to whirlwind around my living room in my long, shoulder-baring sweater while farting the tune to 'What a Feeling!' ...

So, I tried the gum and it

So, I tried the gum and it was an epic let down. We're talking a let down on the scale of seeing Flashdance years after everybody else because my mom wouldn't let me see R-rated movies in the 8th grade so all my friends got to see it and raved and raved and raved about how it was the BEST MOVIE EVER. Then, when I saw it, I thought it was utter crap.

So, okay, I don't think the gum is utter crap. But I could have lived my entire life without trying a piece and never felt the lack of it.

Raisins, grapes and chocolate

Raisins, grapes and chocolate are also really dangerous for dogs but tend to be fine for human consumption. I say eat as much xylitol as your girlfriend can stand.

Yes.... I put it on the alt

Yes.... I put it on the alt text and everything. Just my attempt to weigh in on the trifle/censoring debate. Sorry for disrupting your post, Deadman!

In reply to I hope we get some

I have a feeling Ice Breakers won't be using the 'This gum makes you gassy' sales pitch anytime soon. But the 'it's a fucking party for your mouth every time you pop in one of these babies' - that's advertising gold.

If you log out, you'll see the ads on the right. On this page, we do indeed have an ad for icebreakers gum. We also have "Cure gum disease forever."

For the latter, I haven't clicked the link, but I have my own recommendation: floss, people. 9 out 10 dentists...
