Speaker 1: It's actually a place of choice. You're giving the choice

know what's up man? It's me that guy that always
likes to ask questions, because the fund begins when you
start researching for answers such as does it really take
seven years to break down gum that's been swallowed? Plus
what is the difference between science fiction and fantasy? My
name is Arrow. I'm a daily writer, a silent wolf.
I stand on the sidelines to do nothing but watch, listen, study,
then I devate. I happen to call it the Daily
Mess because it's a chronological walk through an everyday world. Yes,
it's my morning writing. As a receiver of thoughts and ideas,
we as people tend to throw things to the side
because we've got this agreement with that inner self. Oh,
I'm gonna deal with it later on. I'm gonna forget
about it, but I'm gonna deal with it later on.
When a subject arrives inside of me, I know it's
time to dig in. It's still keeping that daily journal.
Bye bye bye, Bude. By doing the research, that picture
becomes clearer. This is the daily mess. Does gum really
take seven years to break down inside the human body?
I mean my entire life, from my school teachers to
my mother, my friends, they always warned, don't swallow your gum.
It's gonna take seven years to digest it. Really well,
science calls my mom and friends totally wrong. So how
does gum break down then? Well, first to go is
the sugar and flavoring. The gum base is what puts
up the fight in the digestion department. No problem, you're intestines.
They'll latch onto that little piece of a monkey and
it'll like whip that stuff out of their big time.
It exits your body very quickly. But what about the
rumors of gum actually being a serious problem only in
very rare cases. Small children who swallowed large amounts of
gum repeatedly could face blockage, but not with a single
piece of gum. It's not going to give you a
seven year resident inside your body. The scare tactic came
from parents who spread it quickly across playgrounds, and then
when it came back home, parents said, see, see what
I mean, don't swallow your gum, which made it a
fact in that moment, when in reality it was not
a fact. Coming up next, the difference between science fiction
and fantasy is there one? Hey, welcome back to the
Daily Mess. How big is the difference between science fiction
and fantasy? Wow, it's not as close as one might assume,
but they do have times where they overlap. Science Fiction
is based on possibility. It doesn't matter if it's way
out there futuristic. It truly pretends it can actually live
through science, technology, and evolution. Science fiction always gives us
the room to ask is this even possible? Whereas fantasy
is built on magic, myth and the supernatural, it too
deals with the what if factor? What if magic is real?
Movies and binge watches that blur that image of science
fiction and fantasy. Oh, it's star Wars and stranger Things.
But let's go ahead and break this down even a
little bit more. The core differences between science fiction. It
is powered by technology, where fantasy gets its lift from magic.
Science Fiction explores science and society, whereas fantasy sets itself
on the center of myth and destiny. Sci Fi explores
humanity through process, while fantasy explores humanity through symbolism. Ooh,
progress versus symbolism. I'm arrow and that's the daily mess.
