Run This Town.
Recently, an Argentinean chewing gum company held an art installation/social experiment using identical twins to determine whether chewing gum makes a person more attractive. The company's findings — which were later used in an advertisement for its gum — found that 73 percent of strangers found the gum-chewing twin more attractive.
Sound too good to be true? Maybe it is.
Either way, it's certainly a cheap way to put your best foot forward this week. — Cory Graves
