Ionkina (my physiology teacher) has permanently spoiled chewing gum for me. there was this class where we were learning bout the hunger-satiety mechanism etc and she once said that if you ever see a person, especially a medical student or a doctor, chewing gum, it goes to show that said individual has completely zero knowledge about physiology, and how said person might not have even completed high school. you know, because the chewing action activates your glands and stomach motility etc but there's no real food going down, so it ends up being bad for you etc.
one of the reason that stuck with me was because of how epic it was when she said that. the way she just looked you in the eye and go "zero knowledge. Zero." is something that kinda sticks. besides, who makes such a big fuss over chewing gum anyway?
so. why the random rambling?
i was watching an interview, and this actor that i absolutely love happens to be someone who would always chew gum on set and it was brought up during the interview.
unfortunately, my brain went straight from the actor chewing gum to "zero knowledge" and that sucks because for the rest of the interview (which spanned an hour long) i kept thinking of how this actor i love, has "zero knowledge" and how much i'd like to tell them that chewing gum is really bad for you.
gargh. it was a wonderful interview though.
