Palooka Joe gum
Palooka Joe gum
Plural: Unknown
This is a piece of Palooka Joe gum. It's a little wad of nearly unchewable pink stuff wrapped in paper. There's a single pointy dent in every piece of this "gum." It's probably just a result of the manufacturing as every piece has it, but it looks a lot like somebody stuck it with a needle. You don’t really think anyone would have done that, but you also can't tell for sure that they didn’t, because there's the needle-shaped hole in it. You can still remember that Halloween when you threw out something like twenty pieces of the stuff, because you were old enough to know to be paranoid about holes, but young enough not to catch on that they all looked the same way.

When Used
You unwrap the gum and attempt to chew it, despite a furious resistance from the gum to being chewed. Eventually you spit the gum out in frustration. You intended to spit it into your hand and from thence into a trash can, but somehow you botch the transfer and drop it on the ground. And then step on it as your momentum carries you forward. Great. Now you’ve got gum stuck to your shoe. It’s going to be there forever. You get an effect, Gumshoe. (Added for 60 minutes.)
