There's an AA billboard on Houston and, uh.. something (Bowery-ish) in lower Manhattan with a girl in the thigh highs and the teeny panty-tank set who is lying on her stomach and blowing a pink gum bubble. I've tried (and failed) to find it on Google, but it's nowhere to be found.
Anyway, seriously. It should be made illegal. I don't know how it doesn't cause car accidents.
Edited to add: I'll snailmail a pack of Big Red to anyone who can find this image online and post it in here.
YO! Gimme my gum!
AHHHHH! Score, buddy.
Ha ha. If you seriously mean that you want the gum, I'll seriously send it. MSG me your snail mail addy if you're down.
I believe the bubble gum girl on Houston was also featured on the 'Bubblicious' spread that ran on the back cover of some tabloid-size alt. weeklies last fall. My single favorite image in the history of advertising.
But you do not want to work clothing retail. 8-9 hour days stomping around on concrete floors is much more tiring than you'd think.

If I could handle grilling at Mongolian Barbeque for years, I think I can handle retail.
