Hardtail Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 Today was one of the hottest days in NY this year. As I'm driving down the road, going to pick my son up from school, I wind the window down to throw out a piece of chewing gum that I had finished. Later, after getting my son, I get back in the car and notice that the piece of gum is sticking on my door. I didn't throw it far enough before. When I pulled this gum off the door, it stuck to my fingers and I couldn't get it off. Not thinking, I removed it from my hand by grabbing it with my other hand. It was all over at that point. I had it all over my hands. With nothing but asphalt around, there was nothing to wipe this blob of gum off my hands. I had no choice but to drive home, getting the crap all over my steering wheel. What a drag. Though I cleaned most of it up, I still have some cleaning to do in the car. Next time I see a piece of gum stuck to my door, I'm going to wait until December to remove it.

BiC Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 I bet the "litter" fairy was laughing his wings off! Maybe he'll go "splat" on your windshield next time around. Look on the bright side... at least you will save someone else by having a bad day by not stepping in it.

A String Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 If the Simpsons have taught me anything, It's that to remove bubble gum you need mayonnaise, Peanut Butter, ice and a hammer and a whole lot of other things...I think you'd be best of just getting accustomed to your new, sticky friend.

Hardtail Posted May 31, 2006 Author Share Posted May 31, 2006 This gum was like the blob. I thought my whole hand was going to be enveloped just like the old man in the beginning of the movie "The Blob" when he poked it with a stick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
