I feel like my hand is constantly on my face,
touch it once and I never let it go.

times an hour.

Speaker 3 (01:09):
Is that all?

Speaker 1 (01:10):
No, that's a fair, that's a lot.

Speaker 2 (01:13):
I feel like that we touch our face about twenty
three times an hour.

Speaker 1 (01:17):
And then think about how often men touch their penises
and then they're in between touching their penises, they touch
their face.

Speaker 2 (01:23):
And then how many times? Why touch penises?

Speaker 1 (01:25):
Why do you guys just touch your penises all the time.

Speaker 2 (01:27):
It's comforting, it's not even a six. It's not even
a sexual thing.

Speaker 1 (01:31):
No, I know, I know that it's not. But you
guys always touching it, like, leave it alone.

Speaker 3 (05:29):
Is this a sign of growing up? I've changed my

Speaker 1 (05:33):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (05:35):
I saw that today.

Speaker 2 (05:36):
How long have you been chewing chewing the chewing gum previously?

Speaker 3 (05:39):
I've always had the same flavor, Like, it's not the type.

It's really good for your teeth.

Speaker 3 (05:51):
I feel like it makes some fuzzier, to be honest.

Speaker 1 (05:53):
No, it is really good for your teeth and gum health,
is it?

Speaker 4 (05:56):
Yes, sugar free gum obviously not like not sugar filled gum.

Speaker 1 (06:02):
But do you ask any dentist.

Speaker 2 (06:04):
Someone told me that chewing gum is bad for your
gut because you when you chew, you produce saliva, which
goes down to your stomach, and that's a precursor to food.
So your stomach thinks food is coming, so it starts
producing stomach acid to deal with the incoming food. But
the food never comes. I don't think so, okay, must
be wrong.

Speaker 1 (06:24):
The dentist always says your mouth, you're right, does produce
a live but that's why it's good for your teeth.

Speaker 2 (06:29):
You go, what's old gum? New gum?

Speaker 3 (06:32):
Old gum? Peppermint? Always peppermint. This is the extra oney kind.
I've changed it, which I feel like is not a
sign of growing up, it's a sign growing down. I'm
now on the bubble mint.

Speaker 2 (06:41):
Oh yeah, you've as like it. You should be going.
You should be going to spearmint as you get older.

Speaker 1 (06:48):

that's what my name is.

Speaker 2 (06:57):
Yeah, but they had false teeth, so y weren't going
to rot.

Speaker 3 (07:02):
