When I was 8 this mean girl in my school told me that her dog ate a piece of gum and it pooped out all it's organs because it stuck them all together. I believed her because she was a grade or two older than me. Soon after I was chewing gum and it fell out of my mouth and my dog ate before I could get to it. I cried for like an hour. Even after my parent's told me it wasn't true, I followed my dog around for a while waiting for him to go.

My cousin used to tell me not to swallow my gum cause i had a bone in the middle of my chest and the gum would pile on top of and if i kept swallowing it, it would eventually come out my mouth and i would have to have surgery to get it removed. How horrible hun?!
