I have two questions about Spicy on SNL

[question everything]

1. Does he really chew gum?

2. Was that stuff that Melissa McCarthy stuffed in her face - gum? It must have, the way she chewed and then removed but... what was it?

[unblock]

1. yes, chews and swallows:

3. I can't stand gum

No wonder I think this guy is odious in so many ways.

Never have been a gum chewer thought people look like cows chewing cud. In my high school chewing gum was forbidden. The one time I chewed gum and was not experienced in hiding it which was offered to me by a popular girl I got caught and had to scrape the gum under the seats in the audoriturm of our school. I was gagging and it was so awful I never chewed gum again. I stopped dating a guy who was a major gum chewer. It was a deal breaker to me.

4. There are several versions of this one....

This is how I remember hearing it--

The gum-chewing student and the cud-chewing cow
Look very alike, but they're different somehow.
And what is the difference? Ah, I see it now.
It's the clear thoughtful look on the face of the cow.

I gave up gum when I had braces.

5. That's funny!

Chewing gum just makes me hungry. Plus, even gum that is not labelled as "sugar-free" usually has Aspartame or some other hideous sugar substitute in it. Aspartame is a known potent neurotoxin, which should be avoided.

Neurotoxins mess with the brain--hmmm.

7. Most sugarless gum has xylitol

It's a sugar alcohol that creates the sweet taste of some vegetables like carrots. It fights tooth decay, but it's also toxic to dogs.

6. I love this poem!

Thanks for sharing.

8. Spicer should chew tobacky

and keep a great big spittoon next to the podium. It would go over great with the base.
