96. What's the Point of Chewing Gum?
Being an American, Donna wants to learn more about the Chinese. She's talking to her Chinese friend, Jeff.
D: Hi, Jeff! What's up?
J: Nothing much. What about you?
D: Same as usual. Here, have a stick of gum.
J: No, thanks. I'll stick to my own brand.
D: And what brand's that?
J: Actually it's not gum. I eat raw garlic instead. Want a piece?
D: No way! So that's where the stinky smell is coming from.
J: Hey! Watch your tongue, ok? Garlic kills germs. It's good for you.
D: Says who?
J: Well, according to…
D: Never mind. Please stop talking. Your breath stinks. I'm out of here.
J: Boy! These Americans don't know what's good for them. Besides, what's the point of chewing gum anyway?
