Title: Britney Spears used gum on eBay - $14,000
Post by: Seany on 01/04/2008 22:54:44
Britney Spears's fans don't think the pop star's chewed gum is "Toxic" - they're buying wads of it on eBay. There are more than two dozen auctions of used gum on eBay, each claiming their product has been spit out by the 22-year-old singer. Prices go as high as $14,000, but most are for significantly less. Though there is no way to verify the authenticity of the various wads, many postings include photos of a small piece of chewed gum, a copy of a ticket stub from the "place of finding" and a personal story of procurement.


Are these people just plain stupid?

Well he has also come out of a very difficult situation which will cause him a lot of stress and anxiety and doubts about family and such.. Like Carolyn says be a good roll model and show understanding for where he has been but make sure when you are upset that he also knows that you still love him and care about them both..Thats what family does.. They love you no matter what but that does not mean you have to coddle them.. but be sensitive within reason and loving and kind in your words ... as much as possible... He will grow on you like the booger on your finger! LOL!!!

Yep.. But it's not because he's stressed or anything.. He just has a really bad brain.. Can't learn English quickly.. Cannot be bothered..
