Talking Wad of Stride Gum, Left for Dead, Is Reunited With Its Chewer
JWT Puerto Rico slapped together four new spots for Stride featuring an emotionally troubled green gumwad who's been left to ponder his mortality under a high school desk. He wallows in self-pity, harangues a pair of cheerleaders and a janitor, and considers suicide before happily getting re-chewed by some doofus high school kid. A (literally) gross misplacement of priorities. Who chews gum they left under a desk, anyway? These two deserve each other. Three more spots after the jump.
