I was a day camp counselor girlie*, and he has the most summer camp vibes of all TH-cam honestly. I think he should make a video about summer camps to make up for it, it's just not right 😂 *ETA: One can be a regular camp counselor, but it's something else when half of your core memories are about children being weird because they're only supervised by a bunch of underpaid teenagers who are too passionate about camp games
tbf, and maybe its just me and scott got this some as well due to also being midwestern, but i feel like summer camps arent as common as people say. like i feel like you have to go very much out of your way to find one unless you happen to live in the same town as one.
Scott is out here pioneering the decade’s greatest exposing franchise: - Toilet Paper - Pillows - Gum I’m already getting hyped for the long awaited sequels: - Chairs - Chips - Soft drinks
Scott exudes so much dad energy that with Jaiden walking around in the background with Corbin I feel like I'm sitting at the dinner table across from my dad listening to him rant about gum lol
Also wanted to say that I hate gum because I was a dumb kid and made my mum ultra panic by swallowing it once, also just the fact that they’re not organic and stick around in wastes and on sidewalks for all eternity, and you just have to have gum in your pocket if you spit it out and can’t find a bin BUT you made this extremely entertaining as always, good work Corbin’s dad!!
I love that, whenever Jaden’s in the background, your eyes clearly want to look back and check for a reaction/response from her. Until she just joins the video 😂 clearly so much stinkin love between y’all 🥹
5 gum was the gum everybody was dealing in middle school. It was mostly for the wrapper because if you peeled off the emerald part of the gum wrapper perfectly without ripping it, it had the static electricity needed to perfectly stick to our binders. So everybody would cover their binders in their favorite color of 5 gum. And it was always impressive when you found someone who had a binder completely filled without a single ripped wrapper. Because the wrappers were so fragile, it was almost a sign of status to be able to have that many gum wrappers perfectly overlaying your binder lol
@@laurenbooth227I remember a similar rumor but I forget if it was about 5 gum or another brand. I did however partake and ultimately, paper is normally always edible if not palatable.
Fun fact: if you ever get gum stuck in your hair or on a fabric you can easily remove it by applying an ice cube to it. No idea why it works, might make the gum brittle or something, just know it does lol
And if that fails try some oil or mayonnaise. I really loved gum and bubble gum to stim as a kid so my parents had a routine pretty down to remove it from my long hair lol
Chapstick would be amazing. I have 14 brands of lip balm. It’s so hard to find something that’s actually hydrating! (Of course, I have Scjogren’s disease, so I’m not the average Jo on this.)
The fold down on the gum pack is actually wild. It's perforated, so you finish the bottom deck first, tear it off, and you can just close it down on the only layer remaining. Nice, compact, and an intelligent design. Man, sounds complicated AF typing it all out, and I haven't finished the video yet so maybe you figured it out, so you know, good job if you did. Proud of you buddy. Love the videos, enjoy your day!
Fun fact, on many gum packets you can find the ADA Seal of Acceptance. You can also look for gum that contains xylitol. The bacteria in your mouth eats the xylitol, but it does not get anything useful from it. Essentially it starves the bacteria. It it not a good replacement for brushing, but it can be helpful after eating. You should still keep flossing and brushing
So fun fact, because Trident is sugar free, it's less likely to get stuck in braces, so when I got braces in middle school, it was the only gum I was allowed to have 🥲 I was in softball and the coach wanted us all chewing gum to help with our pace or something like that? He always kept a pack of orange Trident for me. Ngl I was jealous of all the other kids chewing on Big League Chew, but I still carry around and chew on some orange Trident gum as an adult lol I'm nostalgic for it
I have an aversion to hearing people chew, but I didn’t have any issues in this video. Whatever audio setup you’ve got going on, it’s working! Very fun video. And I definitely remember the lint licker commercial! There was a time in my life that that commercial lived rent-free in my head. 😂
Am I the only one that had memories unlocked because of this video? My main memory was the trident layers, going to the gas station when I was really little and grabbing a pack to enjoy. As well as my brother guessing of gumballs from the gumball machine and always getting it right.
@@D44RK_Iced_YogsInstead of layers, I was a huge Juicy fruit kid because I hated mint. The flavor was gone immediately but it was the only gum I would have.
As a hardcore chewing gum enthusiast, I will say that last time I made a spreadsheet cataloging my experience with every gum at the commons market at the dorms I was in, trident came out on top in the spearmint rankings, and trident spearmint was on top overall. Trident came out on top in the overall brand rankings as well. Wrigley's Wrigley brand was on the bottom. Wrigley needs to lose its choke hold on the gum industry it's not even that good at gum.
Bubble tape was such an absolute experience to buy. I’d often get it if my mom let us pick out a candy in line. Man I ate through that entire thing in a couple hours

The ending "Fun gum" segment made me feel like it was 7:30PM on a Wednesday after school and my parents were watching Unwrapped on Food Network and I was kinda also watching it from the dining room table. Thanks for the feeling Scott.
When I was a kid, I went to this religious church camp type thing… I was too young to fully remember what it was. It wasn’t an overnight thing I dont think. Regardless, on the bus ride home, we did a bubble blowing contest. They had a whole bucket of the original Dubble Bubble gum. I think the only rule was that we had one try to blow the biggest bubble. We could take as many pieces as we wanted, and by the time it got to my turn, I had discovered that the kids who thought that grabbing a handful of pieces would make their bubble bigger always did way worse. But the kids that only grabbed a single piece didn’t have a lot to work with. So I opted for 2 pieces, and, not to brag. But I beat everyone on that bus. And my prize was that I could take the rest of the gum home in the bucket that it came in. And that was the best prize ever to a 6 year old. I kept that bucket for a long time after I had finished all the gum in about an hour lol but I didn’t even remember anything about this event until I watched this video. You unlocked a memory. Which is crazy because I had that bucket for SO LONG. I probably had it for a few years following this event. I kept toys in it, blocks, crayons, Nintendo cartridges. I wore it as a hat for playtime. It was such a huge part of my childhood, it’s kind of unbelievable that I forgot about it
That's some good awareness and adaptability for a 6 year old. Reminds me of my proudest moment when I was that age. I was smashing rocks with a hammer and I realized you can never destroy anything, just make it smaller.
I do have to say I am a bit disapointed that the extra mint chocolate chip was not included in the fun gum. It does seem like an abomination of a flavor but I was obsessed with it in middle school for some reason
Also, did you guys paint an entire room pink and get matching pink sweaters to blow bubble gum for a video? Cause I wouldn’t put that type of commitment past you AT ALL
Scott not knowing that his mom chews 5 gum but Jaden knowing that she chews it on airplanes is hilarious to me for some reason EDIT: After seeing Jaden's "Hey Guy" sweatshirt I like to think that Scott and Jaden are best friends with Drew and Amanda
speaking of fun gum, extra used to have gum that was flavored like various desserts, they were pretty good. i think my favorite was either mint chocolate or apple pie
ALWAYS wanted to bite the side of the roll of Bubble Tape as a kid. That gum turns into liquid (or at least it did in the 90s) pretty quickly and scarred me though so.
As a junior investigator who spent her allowance looking into the bubble-blowing potential of common gum brands, the answer is old formula green mint Stride and green mint Icebreaker cubes.
@@PollPerson For those pink, tape-shaped, cylindrical, and tootsie pop gum varieties, you need like two pieces to blow a sturdy bubble. And even then, they lose flavor in like 5 minutes. The child, the owl, and the duck are lying to you.
as someone who is allergic to most artificial sweeteners, including aspartame, sorbitol, and xylitol, this is the closest I will ever get to trying all these gums.
Im so surprised everyone is so surprised. In the Game show video last year Jaden was pregnant and he casually mentioned it, and then in the end of year video he announced his son's birth, and during the pillow review video you see a walker. But I do agree that its like little tidbits lol, Im just proud that I noticed all of it heh
As somebody with that aversion to listening to people chew, bless you (or whoever edits your videos) for doing such an amazing job editing out a majority of the chewing and general mouth noises out :)
I don't think we talk enough about how Scott has built an amazing community of super loyal fans by making super fun, original content. He also hasnt gotten a big head. He us just sitting down , talking to his friends about a topic he found interesting.
You unlocked a very old memory for me of my family owning a full sized gum ball machine that was bigger than me when I was a child and we had to use quarters to get the candy out.
my siblings and I LOVED juicy fruit gum as kids but we’d rarely get it because we’d go through a pack so quickly because the flavor was gone so quickly so our parents didn’t like to buy it for us since we’d almost immediately ask for more
When I was in college, a candy store a bus ride away, sold Nerds gumballs and I was HOOKED! Big full sized gumballs, with nerds corresponding to the gum color in the hallow insides. Fun crunch and texture, bursting of nerdy flavor, and fun little shakers when they're intact!! I still think about them from time to time lmao
Awesome video scott, I really loved how you framed and shot each section. They all had their distinct colors and personalities and it really supported they whole vibe you were going for. Idk thought that was cool
Great vid Scott! Also, after consulting my mother, that rhyme about Bazooka bubble gum is WAYYY older than the song you showed. My guess is they made a song based off of the rhyme, rather than the reverse. It goes: My mother gave me a nickel, she told me to buy a pickle, but I didn’t buy a pickle, Instead I bought bubble gum. Baroom-baroomba bubble gum, Baroom-baroomba bubble gum!
Akin to the song being made for the commercial trivia you were telling everyone, as a kid I told my dance instructor that every single song ever had been made for a movie.
Okay, but new, pure gold side channel idea. You and wifey trying and ranking different foods/snacks against each other. I say this because I could have watched you two try an endless amount of other gums lol. That's just some solid bantz, and good times right there.
I truly never, ever get sick of the Jake and Amir references (as a real Day One), please keep them coming - at least until they agree to some kind of cameo!
this tier list styled video, especially the spearmint section, is personally useful to me. i will go chew some gum and think about the deteriorating state of the world while rocking back and forth against my wall. Thanks Scott!
Not gonna lie, I don't chew gum. I have chewed many gums, but for the most part, I don't chew gum. The only kind that I actually vividly remember the texture and taste of, was the ice cube gum, which I've only had it a couple times in one week, which also happens to be 7 years ago. Most other gum I have just tastes like gum. I also vividly remember the blo pops, but that's because I've had at least one of thm in the past year (most likely Halloween). I do hae a memory of having a tiny plastic bubble gum machine that I got from a relative when I was really young. I also remember getting gum on my carseat strap, you know, the one that goes between your legs, and it stayed there for probably weeks. That was a fun trip. Literally the biggest thing I remember from that trip was the gum, the tiny plastic yellow bubble gum machine. I don't even know if I still have one (my family got multiple, one for each kid)
Yes, we all had that grandma with the werthers in a bowl, but did anyone else have a grandma with lots of Trident gum in her car. Specifically the tropical twist flavour.
Ok so, THIS MAN BECAME A DAD AND DIDNT ANNOUNCE IT?!?!?! DUDE! but seriously congratulations, so happy for you guys❤ but come on at least a community post or something lol
Had to participate with my favorite gum, Extra, and although I’m chewing a different flavor I have to say in terms of what I would call “losing flavor” it lasted around 8 minutes for me
One possible bonus for the ice cube is that if the main packaging is recyclable, the label can be easily removed and thrown out (labels are not recyclable! Throw out your labels from any beverage bottle too!). Downside though is it seems like a lot of packaging.
feel like its not appreciated enough how color coded scott makes his videos sometimes!! something in my little baby brain is so mesmerized by the bubble gum segment being casted in all different (but still complimentary) shades of pink.
You forgot about excel, idk if you guys just don’t have it in America or something, but that has always been the go-to gum at my schools. Edit: I googled it and it’s mainly here in Canada. Another gum from here in Canada is Thrills, it’s soap flavoured gum and it was a big part of my childhood.
Of COURSE I remember the Cootie Queen/Lint Licker gum commercial, who could possibly forget it? That actress deserved to be famous. I hope she went on to a huge career.
Am I the only one that had memories unlocked because of this video? My main memory was the trident layers, going to the gas station when I was really little and grabbing a pack to enjoy. As well as my brother guessing of gumballs from the gumball machine and always getting it right.
"I grew up in the woods. I understand many things because of the woods. Trees standing together, growing alongside one another, providing so much. I chew pitch gum. On the outside, let's say of the ponderosa pine, sometimes pitch oozes out. Runny pitch is no good to chew. Hard, brittle pitch is no good. But in between there exists a firm, slightly crusted pitch with such a flavor. This is the pitch I chew." -The Log Lady
My 11th grade English teacher asked me for gum every day. When I got a high grade on a quiz, I’d give her gum, when I did poorly, I told her I was out. I have no control group to compare it to but I’d like to think I graduated 11th grade all thanks to Trident Layers and some mind games
The absolutely fun chemistry between Scott and Jaden on the bubble blowing segment melted my heart. 🥰 You can see how much they enjoy each other's company and I love to watch them together.
Me: Scott never went to camp? He seems like the kind of guy who would spent all summer at camp. My husband: Well to be fair, North Dakota basically is camp.
Does the US have Thrills gum? It tastes like soap. Purple soap. When I was growing up (here in Canada) a common thing to get at Halloween was a two-pack of Chiclets (the gum gum with flavour flavour!), came in a rainbow worth of colours in a regular box, but they also had pepperment. The colour ones were the sweetest and the best.
Thrills is not a thrill let me tell you LOL Who. in their right mind. Would chew THAT Devilish product The chiclets were fine though, just not a fan of Thrills, no hate if you like it though.. but id like to know why
I felt so good when I was called a cool kid for chewing juicy fruit 😌 also, as a gun addict myself, seeing his review of each gum was really entertaining lol
My dad chewed gum every day when he worked-he recently retired. Especially when I was little, I remember him chewing gum on the drive to school every morning with his big circular gum container in the cup holder. His breath was so minty it burned ur eyes when he spoke right into ur face lmao
i guarantee you that kids in school were only obsessed with gum because it wasn't allowed in most (US) schools. it was like a little rebellious thing you could do, to buy a pack and split each stick down the middle and pass them around before class started. I'll never turn down a piece of gum now when offered but i also can't remember the last time i bought a pack for myself.
Scott having never gone to summer camp is the biggest surprise of the video.
He gives off mad camp counselor vibes to me
frfr
For real. Truly has a “went to camp each summer until he was too old so he became a camp counselor” feel about him.
I was a day camp counselor girlie*, and he has the most summer camp vibes of all TH-cam honestly. I think he should make a video about summer camps to make up for it, it's just not right 😂
*ETA: One can be a regular camp counselor, but it's something else when half of your core memories are about children being weird because they're only supervised by a bunch of underpaid teenagers who are too passionate about camp games

Bazooka bubble gum chant is also really common theater energizer
Scott: I’m not really a gum guy.
Also Scott: *has an encyclopedic memory of every gum commercial ever*
He's just got a good memory for commercial tbh
He's a gum Commerical guy. Not a gum chewing guy
Memorizing a commercial doesn't make you a gum guy. Doing this deep dive video on gum probably does though.
And yet he didn’t remember 5 gum’s slogan “stimulate your senses”. That’s why it’s called 5.
@@Sanecristhow the hell did I not know that that was why it was called 5
Watching a grown man chew gum for 36 minutes (and enjoying it) is a testament to just how likable Scott and his family are.
I was just about to comment this.. Like why am I watching a gum review? Oh ya.. Scott👍
So it’s not just me that thinks this is entertaining even though I have no interest in gum

Lip balm. Chapstick is a brand.
For lip balm it tbh depends on what you need- a spf, medicated (if your lips are sunburn or peeled), moisturising etc.
But my fav is burts bees

Here's a little tidbit Scott - Excess consumption of sugar free gum has a laxative effect so I hope you enjoyed the afternoon! 😅
😳
😂

Does it matter that he’s not CONSUMING the gum? He just chewed on it
@@PtylerBeats They contain sorbitol as the sweetener which is what acts as a laxative, it comes out with the flavor and you swallow that.

I collected the bubba tape containers and played with them because we couldnt afford other toys. They hold a special place in my heart.
Watching Scott’s videos is kind of like hanging out with your super cool, super chill older brother. It’s insanely comforting
speaking of fun gum, extra used to have gum that was flavored like various desserts, they were pretty good. i think my favorite was either mint chocolate or apple pie
It’s so nice of Jaden, and that adorable baby to let Scott have some screen time
ALWAYS wanted to bite the side of the roll of Bubble Tape as a kid. That gum turns into liquid (or at least it did in the 90s) pretty quickly and scarred me though so.
The third one of the trilogy of Scott telling us whats the best of something we need everyday. Hope it becomes a saga
Agreed! Would love to see something silly like ways to walk/sit/sleep
I literally found him from the pillow video (yes, I clicked on a long video about pillows from someone I don't know), and I love all his content now
Would love to see that too
would love a review of bath towels!
Loving the drew gooden merch ^^ so nice to see how supportive and close the commentary community is
As a junior investigator who spent her allowance looking into the bubble-blowing potential of common gum brands, the answer is old formula green mint Stride and green mint Icebreaker cubes.
Not even "bubble" gum?
@@PollPerson For those pink, tape-shaped, cylindrical, and tootsie pop gum varieties, you need like two pieces to blow a sturdy bubble. And even then, they lose flavor in like 5 minutes. The child, the owl, and the duck are lying to you.
@@chezvanessa Well I will never need this information in my life, but I'm glad I have it now lol
@@chezvanessawhat about the Mechanical TRex?
@@Chewbarta Not enough funding to cover that, I'm afraid. Damn grant system.
I love that Scott does just the most random yet wholesome and entertaining videos in the commentary community. 😊😊
as someone who is allergic to most artificial sweeteners, including aspartame, sorbitol, and xylitol, this is the closest I will ever get to trying all these gums.
Me too. I’m also allergic to stevia.
What about flavorless gum
Another hard hitting article from an important investigative reporter, doing the rough work out in the field
I like that he and his wife having a kid is just like a little Easter egg that is hidden so well in the background that nobody noticed.
Yeah he's not tryna be a family vlog channel and I respect that because they are pure cringe
Im so surprised everyone is so surprised. In the Game show video last year Jaden was pregnant and he casually mentioned it, and then in the end of year video he announced his son's birth, and during the pillow review video you see a walker. But I do agree that its like little tidbits lol, Im just proud that I noticed all of it heh
This is a smart thing for him to review while he’s adjusting to being a dad. Because he’s probably going to grocery store all the time anyways ❤
As somebody with that aversion to listening to people chew, bless you (or whoever edits your videos) for doing such an amazing job editing out a majority of the chewing and general mouth noises out :)
I don't think we talk enough about how Scott has built an amazing community of super loyal fans by making super fun, original content. He also hasnt gotten a big head. He us just sitting down , talking to his friends about a topic he found interesting.
You unlocked a very old memory for me of my family owning a full sized gum ball machine that was bigger than me when I was a child and we had to use quarters to get the candy out.
Love the video! you should have added a smell taste portion like take a shot of vodka and see what hides your breathe the best
I always love it when Scott brings out the projector. It's hard to explain, but it gives me great joy lol
I think it’s because nearly everyone else uses green screen and it’s very elementary school that he uses a projector
I think it’s how serious he is about it for me. And him just looking like a goober being overlayed with whatever it’s projecting. 😂
You should do a part 1.5 reacting to and diving deep into the commercials off the different gums!
Scott doing this just at his kitchen table with stuff going on in the background, is so entertaining.
Your videos are always so fun to watch! P.S. you are absolutely rocking the pink shirts!
i could watch scott do or talk about absolutely anything he just makes everything interesting
my siblings and I LOVED juicy fruit gum as kids but we’d rarely get it because we’d go through a pack so quickly because the flavor was gone so quickly so our parents didn’t like to buy it for us since we’d almost immediately ask for more
When I was in college, a candy store a bus ride away, sold Nerds gumballs and I was HOOKED! Big full sized gumballs, with nerds corresponding to the gum color in the hallow insides. Fun crunch and texture, bursting of nerdy flavor, and fun little shakers when they're intact!! I still think about them from time to time lmao
i loved everything about the bubblegum section. the pink aesthetic, jaiden’s (jaden?) perfect vibes, the bubblegum songs. perfection
Awesome video scott, I really loved how you framed and shot each section. They all had their distinct colors and personalities and it really supported they whole vibe you were going for. Idk thought that was cool
Great vid Scott!
Also, after consulting my mother, that rhyme about Bazooka bubble gum is WAYYY older than the song you showed. My guess is they made a song based off of the rhyme, rather than the reverse. It goes:
My mother gave me a nickel,
she told me to buy a pickle,
but I didn’t buy a pickle,
Instead I bought bubble gum.
Baroom-baroomba bubble gum,
Baroom-baroomba bubble gum!
Akin to the song being made for the commercial trivia you were telling everyone, as a kid I told my dance instructor that every single song ever had been made for a movie.
As an Eagle Scout, I confirm that the bazooka bubblegum song was sung widely in camps
We would sing it around the fire at girl scouts
Okay, but new, pure gold side channel idea. You and wifey trying and ranking different foods/snacks against each other. I say this because I could have watched you two try an endless amount of other gums lol. That's just some solid bantz, and good times right there.
the "rating category of products" type of videos are always great, keep em coming
Scott has upgraded from 10 min videos to 30 min videos and I feel grateful
I like just seeing the fam live in the background. It’s just so freaking normal and I love it
I truly never, ever get sick of the Jake and Amir references (as a real Day One), please keep them coming - at least until they agree to some kind of cameo!
this tier list styled video, especially the spearmint section, is personally useful to me. i will go chew some gum and think about the deteriorating state of the world while rocking back and forth against my wall. Thanks Scott!
my boyfriend just notified me mid video that too much chewing gum in a day works as a laxative, so that's fun.
wow great video. im not much of a gum guy but this video has helped me save 100's in dental cleaning.
Not gonna lie, I don't chew gum. I have chewed many gums, but for the most part, I don't chew gum. The only kind that I actually vividly remember the texture and taste of, was the ice cube gum, which I've only had it a couple times in one week, which also happens to be 7 years ago. Most other gum I have just tastes like gum. I also vividly remember the blo pops, but that's because I've had at least one of thm in the past year (most likely Halloween). I do hae a memory of having a tiny plastic bubble gum machine that I got from a relative when I was really young. I also remember getting gum on my carseat strap, you know, the one that goes between your legs, and it stayed there for probably weeks. That was a fun trip. Literally the biggest thing I remember from that trip was the gum, the tiny plastic yellow bubble gum machine. I don't even know if I still have one (my family got multiple, one for each kid)
Yes, we all had that grandma with the werthers in a bowl, but did anyone else have a grandma with lots of Trident gum in her car. Specifically the tropical twist flavour.
Ok so, THIS MAN BECAME A DAD AND DIDNT ANNOUNCE IT?!?!?! DUDE! but seriously congratulations, so happy for you guys❤ but come on at least a community post or something lol
Aww baby Cramer is such a cutie~
Edit: Also does anyone else sneeze after eating gum? Or is that just me?
Had to participate with my favorite gum, Extra, and although I’m chewing a different flavor I have to say in terms of what I would call “losing flavor” it lasted around 8 minutes for me
I needed the wholesomeness of a Scott video in my life today. Thank you. ❣️
One possible bonus for the ice cube is that if the main packaging is recyclable, the label can be easily removed and thrown out (labels are not recyclable! Throw out your labels from any beverage bottle too!). Downside though is it seems like a lot of packaging.
feel like its not appreciated enough how color coded scott makes his videos sometimes!! something in my little baby brain is so mesmerized by the bubble gum segment being casted in all different (but still complimentary) shades of pink.
You forgot about excel, idk if you guys just don’t have it in America or something, but that has always been the go-to gum at my schools.
Edit: I googled it and it’s mainly here in Canada. Another gum from here in Canada is Thrills, it’s soap flavoured gum and it was a big part of my childhood.
@@worsercallsaul69 yup, literal soap flavour
I think orbit might be Usa's Excel
Of COURSE I remember the Cootie Queen/Lint Licker gum commercial, who could possibly forget it? That actress deserved to be famous. I hope she went on to a huge career.
This is the first video I've seen of them together and they have such a good chemistry and the vibes of this video are top notch
Am I the only one that had memories unlocked because of this video?
My main memory was the trident layers, going to the gas station when I was really little and grabbing a pack to enjoy. As well as my brother guessing of gumballs from the gumball machine and always getting it right.
"I grew up in the woods. I understand many things because of the woods. Trees standing together, growing alongside one another, providing so much. I chew pitch gum. On the outside, let's say of the ponderosa pine, sometimes pitch oozes out. Runny pitch is no good to chew. Hard, brittle pitch is no good. But in between there exists a firm, slightly crusted pitch with such a flavor. This is the pitch I chew."
-The Log Lady
The dad energy and wholesome vibes of this video lasted longer than any of the gums.
i love when Jaden gets in on the wacky antics, shes a delight
I love this series of just rating random mundane things. Keep it up man
My 11th grade English teacher asked me for gum every day. When I got a high grade on a quiz, I’d give her gum, when I did poorly, I told her I was out. I have no control group to compare it to but I’d like to think I graduated 11th grade all thanks to Trident Layers and some mind games
The absolutely fun chemistry between Scott and Jaden on the bubble blowing segment melted my heart. 🥰 You can see how much they enjoy each other's company and I love to watch them together.
Me: Scott never went to camp? He seems like the kind of guy who would spent all summer at camp.
My husband: Well to be fair, North Dakota basically is camp.
Does the US have Thrills gum? It tastes like soap. Purple soap. When I was growing up (here in Canada) a common thing to get at Halloween was a two-pack of Chiclets (the gum gum with flavour flavour!), came in a rainbow worth of colours in a regular box, but they also had pepperment. The colour ones were the sweetest and the best.
Thrills is not a thrill let me tell you LOL
Who. in their right mind. Would chew THAT Devilish product
The chiclets were fine though, just not a fan of Thrills, no hate if you like it though.. but id like to know why
Watching the two of them doing random shit like this together is so much fun.
I felt so good when I was called a cool kid for chewing juicy fruit 😌 also, as a gun addict myself, seeing his review of each gum was really entertaining lol
This guy is going to single-handedly bring the earth back to the ice age with his breath after chewing all those gums
My dad chewed gum every day when he worked-he recently retired. Especially when I was little, I remember him chewing gum on the drive to school every morning with his big circular gum container in the cup holder. His breath was so minty it burned ur eyes when he spoke right into ur face lmao
i guarantee you that kids in school were only obsessed with gum because it wasn't allowed in most (US) schools. it was like a little rebellious thing you could do, to buy a pack and split each stick down the middle and pass them around before class started. I'll never turn down a piece of gum now when offered but i also can't remember the last time i bought a pack for myself.
